    Domain name would have been better as a .com, but I'm sure you probably knew that. Other than the .info it's a great domain.

    On the header, the main menu is not centered and so "more tutorials" is cut into two lines. If you moved it to the right some more everything would be neatly on the same line.

    I dislike how you have to scroll down so far before any content due to too many ads. You'd probably be better off getting horizontal text links and replacing on of the 300x250s with them.

    Other than that it's quite good - nice content.

    the domain is cool, the background is confusing me.. I actually didn't like the banner, it's not professionally designed though it's a site about photoshop tutorials !..
    all the tutorials are uploaded on youtube which has low resolution.

    I do not like the design, I think the site would look better if you got a more
    professional template.

    Hi, first of all, you have some very nice content :)
    secondly, the red text in header is hard for me to see.
    lastly, the right column/sidebar needs populated, too much white space. Good luck :)

    You got some nice tutorials there ... Well personallly i don't like the header much and the background looks hard to my eyes too .. You blended your adsesne ads really well but your placement is not very much good as you placed all of them in a line. Place some of them between posts and try to make a professional header for it as being a designer, the first thing attracts me is a header/logo :)
    Thanks

    I recommend this plug-in so you can rotate your affiliate links or ads :) in any place that you want.
    http://blog.taragana.com/index.php/...otate-your-ads-including-adsense-dynamically/

    His instructions say to insert code like this:
    < ?php echo getad('bannerad') ?>
    PHP:
    But after much trial and error, and reading all the comments, I discovered that you need to place the code like this:
    <?php echo getad('bannerad'); ?>
    PHP:
    Just a small yet important tweak!

    I agree that amazon is a good choice. In fact, I'm placing them on a site today in hopes that they will generate very relative items to buy. However, I am having severe connection issues with amazons site today. Loading very slow, if at all, plus the cssing is not loading at all. It's quite blinding! :D

    This site was recently upgraded to wp7 and the plugin required no special adjustments. It kept on trucking. You can scroll to the bottom here and get some resources for affiliates and writing tools and see the rotator in place at the header :)

    One thing that I noticed is that it has a slow loading time on my internet connection. If you want to have a large reader base, then you should consider about improving the loading time. If changing the design or reducing the ads or decreasing the number of javascript codes isn't possible anymore, maybe you can reduce the number of the posts that you put in front page.

    However, it may not be a problem if your visitors come from search engines or social bookmarking site to an individual post.

    Nice site.

    By the way, is there another purpose beyond the tutorials? Like marketing software or a service?

    also?

    Sprechen Sie Deutsch? Ja? Ich liebe die Frauen in dem Video, aber nicht alle Menschen verstehen, Deutsch.

    Hello,

    I think your site needs little more simplicity over all effort is good, Your background should be simple try to seek some good web 2.0 design directories or css galleries so you can get the idea and try to put logo as simple as with little bit small font from current and make it left align

    some logo examples can be

    http://simplecandy.deviantart.com/art/smplr-Teaser-82913789

    See layout examples

    Background example

    These links can be good inspiration for others as well

    Else you can dig out.
