Hello folks, I've started a new blogsite and am looking for feedback to it - anything goes - positive or negative. You will find it at https://glynjohns.wordpress.com If you wish to comment on the blog, feel free - the more, the merrier. In fact, if you do think it's ok, then why not bookmark it? Thanking you in anticipation, Glyn
Great content, SeniorWarden6407. But, would you consider using a different theme on wordpress? I just felt kinda lost amongst all the white background and everything on your site. Do that, and it will really spruce it up a bit. I did enjoy reading some of your posts tho.
Hi Lee, thanks for your useful comment & the good wishes. I'm very new to blogging (apart from what I do at work), so will investigate when I can - in my spare time I'm currently compiling an essay for my Open University final assignment in this year's module, so MUST get that done first, as it's to be in by Thursday of next week.
Good layout. I would play with some other color options though. The blue is a bit overpowering. You can't go wrong with white space for text. You could even try some light, textured look if you didn't like the blank white look.
Hi Lee, I couldn't wait - so I've changed the theme colour - once again, many thanks for your feedback.
Oh dear, that's a bit technical for me at the moment - I will have to play around with it when I have more time. Thanks for your suggestion though.
I love what you did with the blog. The blue adds a nice touch, but like wafflehorse said, I don't think you need to change the blue, just try a different layout, maybe one that has some spacing between the categories and the text. Mind me asking what type of blog software you are using?
Since you are using WordPress the themes are almost limitless. I use the intrepidity theme for my blog. Just waiting for my 7 days to go up and then I am going to put mine up for review.
Well...I would suggest you to install Mystique theme and start from there. That one can be configured in a very easy way without really jumping into code. If you need any help with CSS you can go to w3school site and get it there. This theme has a user friendly design section where you can post your customer CSS that will override the theme styles.css file.
Thanks to all of you who have sent me useful comments - I'm very grateful. I will be able to devote more time to my blog after this weekend is over, as I have to prioritise and write a 2,000 word essay for my final assignment for my University module this year; then I'll have until October to do other things, before I begin a new module. Thanks once again.
I took a look at your site and the content is pretty good. I am going to go with the others and say you should change your theme or at the very least change your header to something other than the stock WP one. You should be able to find a free graphics program online and create your own unique header in short order.
Hi LondonHomes, I will give that a go, now I've finished my university module (until I start another on October 1st!!!)
What the niche is? You must get one specific soon It will more interesting if you change the theme Finally result is : Good job!!
