Professional Blog Design or NOT? I need to know.

    I have just finished creating a new design for my blog about 15 minutes ago. Now I would love to know if it looks professional and fresh. What do I need to change? Thanks A lot. I know you might think, "who cares about blogger designs!", but this one is pretty unique, from my point of view.

    I think it's pretty nice, good job with it.

    However, I'm not liking the font you chose in the banner. You should find a different, more modern font. Check out Smashing Magazine, they usually have some pretty good fonts for free.

    But besides the banner text, you did a good job on the theme.

    Design looks nice. The only thing I don't like is the grey with light blue in your navigation hover.

    I would definitely change the banner at the top, besides for that it is good.

    It looks really good! It's unique as well... I've never seen this type of design before.
