    This background image http://img354.imageshack.us/img354/4924/ginismagicbackgroundtillj6.jpg loads in Firefox but not in IE6 I checked, it use white background instead, something blocked it, after you reloaded the page you still see white background.

    Nice header and design.

    I think it will look cooler if you make the gray background color to light gray/grey or to a lighter color.

    Thanks for the opinions, guys. I made a couple more changes including lightening the color of the main post area and side bar. I also made it so that both areas appear the same length and I've re-integrated the CommentLuv plugin.

    Are there any other changes you would suggest?

    Hey I remember I reviewed your blog not long ago. I thought the previous one was great.

    workathomeshop - I designed the header myself, thanks!

    lycos - I liked the old one too but I got too many complaints that it was difficult to read so I decided to change it.
