    Hi guys and girls,

    I've just finished the design and layout of my new blog related to RC helicopters and I'm looking for ideas on what to improve.

    Please check it out at http://www.helireviews.com

    Please let me know if you spot any bugs and what browser you were using.

    I am having a problem with the Contact page that I can't figure out. It will not let me scroll down in Firefoc and IE8 and I can't figure out why. Any ideas?

    Thank for taking a look and all comments are welcome.

    Thanks for the recommendation. I'm busy working on a bigger banner for the header now. By white theme, did you mean the white text on the banner?

    Thanks again,
    Norrad

    Thanks mate. Yes I will be adding reviews as soon as I'm happy with the design. I don't feel like doing reviews and tinkering with the design, I want the design behind me so that I can concentrate on writing. :)

    Very cool blog, i love these helicopters too so shall be following you, if using wordpress don't forget to add the seo all in one plugin and if using a tag cloud i'd use auto tag plugin, saves you tagging manually and it does tag quite well. Also ya might wanna delete the hello blog as it shows that the site is used by wordpress. Keep it up though looking good

    The theme is clear, good candidate for seo friendly templates.

    What template am I using? This design is done completely by me.

    Thanks for the suggestions so far everyone. I've added a review so that you can view the layout of actual posts.

    Thanks mate. I did the design by myself. I did borrow elements from all over the web for small things. The color scheme I got from a magazine site, the design I used one of my previous designs (www.isaanguide.com) that I did for a customer who has never used it. The article layout I used some ideas from John Chows site. etc. So I did get ideas but I didn't copy any template or site.
