    I just put up my blog and wanted to get some feedback from some bloggers and please be honest.

    Do the colors flow?

    What about the size of the header? Should I make that smaller??

    Thanks!!

    Looks great! That theme is awesome...did you buy it or make it yourself? Overall it's really clean looking, I wouldn't change anything.

    nope, it kind of all fits...if you were to change any color, it should probably be the blue background of that box, but even the way it is looks good.

    I'd play with the colors if that is what you want, the layout is clean. I especially like all the social bookmarks. I have a question about those; do you have a script that registers each post with all of those socialbookmarking sites?

    Good looking blog just get some content going and you should be set,

    Best of luck,
    Rob

    I like the layout, it's very clean! However, I think the blue doesn't work well with your colorscheme. Try a white or pale yellow instead.

    I think the color flow and layout looks great too. I would have never thought that if someone tried to tell me in print until I saw it together. Your designer did well there.

    The only problem I had was readline the links. That light green is tough for me to see.. But even that isn't anything to worry about.

    Man, now you have me thinking about the colors to one of my blogs lol. I may splash a little of that green in it.

    Btw, I especially liked the fade out in that footer.

    Good day,
    Your blog seems to be very good.

    In my opinions, cold colors are the most better for business blogs and websites.

    You can combine a dark blue with a light blue for your main header, I think it's better than the green + brown.


    Hope it helps. Bye...

    Well , I`m not a blogger but I can say that :

    1. the layout is okay
    2. the color scheme is nice
    3. I like the top menu , it looks dynamic
    One thing I would like to suggest , maybe a bold weight for the text .. ?

    Nice blog. I really like the theme, and I think the colors are pretty nice. I think maybe try using the blue color for the background of each post's title. Too much green.
