    Hello everyone,

    This is my first site. It is a place where people can post their writing, graphics or website for other people to improve it.

    Please give me your feedback on design and site idea. What can I do to improve it.

    Thank you very much for your time and comments :)

    I love the concept and I will be signing up :0)

    One thing - you have too many fonts / font-sizes on the page
    serif + sans-serif and every line is a different size text, and too much bold - it's too much.
    Limit the serif font to the logo and main titles and keep the rest of the text in a clean sans-serif.

    I think the Lucida Grande stack would look nice:
    “Lucida Sans”, “Lucida Grande”, “Lucida Sans Unicode”, sans-serif

    best of luck!

    The clean and accessible design is very attractive and easy to navigate. The structure overall is thoughtful and compelling. This is, without doubt, a five star site and I have it on my reading list.

    I know that you are trying to be original, but the wording and sizing of the fonts can be a little diffecult.
    good work though

    morework & ochiboy84 - thank you for the advice. Font size and style are things I struggle with. Not a designer by heart. That's why I need the community to help me to "improve my work" :)

    clbyodo, gunar46 & lucilla - I'm glad you like the simple and clean design. It gives me the confidence in my not so artistic designing ability.

    I hope more will give me specific suggestions and comments. Good or bad :)

    thank you everyone!

    I know you may not be ready for it yet, but a counter of how many are "in the community" would make people feel like it's not just them and some guy in Singapore talking to each other.
