Hey guys and girls, recently updated my music reviews site layout and wanted opinions. Link in my sig
well... it's simple and cooling.. but I don't know why I felt like in myspace maybe because of the color..
The header is nice and there are some nice pictures on the page but the rest of the design looks plain, maybe it would look better if you changed the background color in the right column.
I'd have to agree with kingofsanda here, change the background colour in the right column to split it up from the main content. You could change it to the grey used in the background, and change the background colour to something slightly darker (or use a background image). I think the text in the main column is a little too small and could be hard to read, especially when the text on the right side is so big compared. There's also a massive gap above the header, try and make it smaller (at least half what it is now).
I saw your site yesterday/a few days ago (can't remember exactly) but it was better then. edit. what font are you using in the banner?
tried changing the right column colour slightly, argh why is it a bitch to get 100% height in CSS the font is called myriad pro
It looks much better with the changes. The font is easier to read, and the side is better distinguished from the main content. Also, the top is fine where it is now. Don't put it right up against the blogger toolbar. I think you should get rid of the ad at the bottom of the page, and put in a skyscraper in the spare space on the right of the page. At the moment, the ad is just causing a longer scroll.
