Hello, 1 year ago the none commercial regional online newspaper (German Language) http://www.niederlausitz-aktuell.de was started without any budget. The site developed quite well and has now approx. 400,000 pv per month and a PR of 4. Besides news the site has by far the largest image gallery of the region. I am thinking about spicing up the site a bit but am unsure if I should do so. So far feedback has been quite positive especially regarding the plain and simple layout. My question: Should I spice up or not Thank you for your time taking a look.
I think you should add more colors into the color scheme and add some negative space between the paragraphs on the page the text on the page looks a bit crammed.
