looks nice homepage needs more work maybe add some images and some fettered recipe and change them from week to week or so
Nice logo! I love the gradients and how all of the content are layed out Suggestion: I would use a different color scheme for your theme (the color scheme right now doesn't really suite a recipe site). Maybe a red/brown/white color scheme? Just have a look at other recipe sites out there.
Should be: Some of the recipes are looking a bit messy, take http://recipelook.com/recipe/317595/Wild Duck Soup/ as an example. You should also try to blend the logo with the header - two slightly different shades of blue (a least on my monitor). I generally like the look and feel - much more web 2.0 than many recipe sites. Where will you be getting recipes in future? -- if you're taking submissions and will be providing links from recipes you publish then PM me. Good Luck!
Amazing site ... lol When I scrolled down at the homepage, I had the impression the colors fully changed from that neat blue gradient to the other neat slightly red color scheme. However very nice done! One tip I can give you is, place the adsense links in the welcome box, or a new similar box to that, as currently the ads are simple standalone ON the blue gradient, while I think its much better if it is in such a box Just my 2 cents .. hope this helps But again, very good design!
