    Upon viewing your blog I noticed that your content is great but the logo does not fit in with
    the theme or the color scheme of your site. The logo could be better and the background
    color of the logo should be consistent with your site.

    I took a look at it and it has a nice clean look, however I would suggest a few more pictures to spice things up to keep your readers eyes on your blog.

    Others than the obvious flaws (header logo and Blog title) there's not much to fix

    You might want to choose one type of "your add here" on the 125x125 sidebar ads (they look ugly TBH)

    The category tabs are confusing and look like page tabs for some reason (not much you can do there though)

    I found your posts very interesting and I suggest you keep the same tone.

    Needs some color. Once you change out the Google logos, there won't be anything on the page that grabs your attention

    Looks good, you should consider changing the setting so the URL's of the names of the posts instead of the codes

    Looks crisp. But maybe it's just me who would like the logo text to be a little thicker. The search section is also a little hard to find.

    The search bar is almost invisible.Change that text color and also top navigation links color(home,about,etc) to white or any other light colors.Rss icon is not appearing..
    To say in one line.... Apart from header.. all is OK.
    thanks.

    Really nice layout, I like it. I know everyone has mentioned changing the header. I agree with that, to a point. I think it's nice to have to contrast on the site to be honest, otherwise it'd all look the same.

    I think you should move the search box into its own box on the right of the articles. It'd be more noticable and would clear a space for a nice sized ad in the header. Are you going to use Adsense?

    The 'Miscellaneous' and 'Website Tips' tabs currently stick out into the black at the moment. I'll attach a screenshot, because it's hard to explain exactly what I mean.

    All of those points are being really picky. You have an excellent layout and good content, keep it going!
