    I like the general design and color mix, although personally I would go for a slightly darker background color instead of white vs white content background. Header Graphic and Logo well designed, artwork impressive.

    I have to agree with sweetchilli, the white on white might take away from the overall appearance of the site.

    the header image seems a little "tall".

    The meta description and keywords are in the header - that is good. For some reason a lot of wordpress themes are missing the meta description. So its good that yours is in place.

    There is one thing I would like to bring to your attention, on this page - http://www.blackwaterblog.com/2009/02/08/webmaster-freebie-seo-4-smf/#comments

    someone has used a tinyurl link. This poses a security risk. Visitors to your site should be able to mouse over the link and see where it goes.

    It looks clean and tide, keep adding new and fresh content and I think you'll see great results.

    I like the color and design except for the side bar. I do not like how it runs up into the header. I would also suggest if you want to have a successful webmaster blog, you start to write your own content or pay for quality content. You will get very little return traffic when you can find the same article in a 100 different places on the Internet.

    Loyal readers will return to read what you have to say but not to see duplicate articles from elsewhere.

    Hello,

    High quality blog. Just one mention to make it more SEO friendly. Put the side bar on the right side of the page so the search engine spiders will find the fresh updated content and give your site some juice to climb the google pages.
