New design!

    Alright I have three questions, so I'll get right to the point:

    1. How do you like the redesign of my site? [www.veckd.com]
    2. Would the brown be better replaced with white? For example the background would be white and light gray instead.
    3. Lastly, wordpress keeps randomly switching the theme out and putting in an old one. Do you know why this could be?

    Thanks for your help,
    Greg

    I didn't like the graphics at all, but thats just me.

    The scroll bar is too far from the content that needs scrolling

    The text is not resizeable

    Good artical.

    The slide show is great but could be larger

    Looks pretty good.
    I don't like how the background moves opposite the direction of the text area. If that's intentional, fine but there is a spot like 25px to the right of the content area where when you scroll down, the background moves in two different directions.
    I like the concept of the image in the lower right, but that too could be cleaned up a little but. Looks like you just adjusted the levels in Photoshop and then filled things in with the paint bucket. The pink accents are a nice touch.
    'Veckd' is not that easy to find nor is it easy to read. I understand that your going for a minimal grunge look but make that just a tad bolder.
    Very nice articles, keep up the blogging :)

    The image on the right seems to be squishing the content on the left. Makes it hard to read, try smaller graphic. More space between the words a bit.

    Also your links seem to be low. The ones on top seem very low....

    My two cents..

    Should add some adsense in their too...

    looks really good, I have to admit - except for 1 part. the graphic image on the right looks as if it is cut off. it's a bit too abrupt. other than that great job with everything :)

    I definitely agree with the image changes. I just shrunk it down 33%, let me know what you think ;).
    Also motex, could you screenshot the navigation for me? That would be great.

    Thanks for all your help,
    Greg

    Not bad, but it seems rather cluttered, unless it's just my imagination. :confused:
