    Hi all

    I am new to blogging so thought I would start with something I know about and that is informative to others. This is not a blog for trying to make money or sell anything just a blog to get me used to blogging itself.

    Travel Hassles

    Plesae give me any tips you may have

    I feel it cluttered with lots of text. Sprinkle a couple of images and if you can make it little more spacious with the same amount of information and text, it would be make the visitor interested in the site and would increase the comeback rate.

    How should I say, 'too blue'. You should consider changing the categories and post title into other color.

    Nice design, it would be better if you set the width to 980px or 1024px

    - You should get a more original template.

    - You should get a logo.

    - You should add some graphics into the header.

    - You should change the color of your adsense ad
    to make it match the theme of the blog.

    its rare to hear this from a beginner that "not blogging for money" "blogging something i know" ..

    so,i would say this is a positive sign.carry on and blog...i liked the blue background.when your blog grows a bit more try using a different template.

    The blue color is very impressive. Put more pictures and try to add a logo. it will create good impression.

    Good luck
