    www.ancientstandard.com is the URL of a new blog I just launched the other week.

    We just had the new design finished and added to the site (it's using wordpress). I would appreciate if you guys could take a look and critique the design, ad placement and what you think of the actual content.

    Thanks for taking the time to check it out! :)

    The background, header graphics are excellent! My only suggestion is to make the footer's background lighter.

    Hi, first of all thanks for the comments everyone!

    I run my own design / development firm so it makes it easy to get stuff put together :)

    We are posting new content to the blog every day, I believe we've fixed all the ie issues, but if they are still happening could someone please post a screenshot?

    Thanks so much!
    Dave

    Your site is excellent, it may be a good idea to enlarge
    the fonts though so that it would be more easy to read.

    Hi Artisan,

    Thanks for the comments. We have a floating text size at the moment, so the user can make it larger or smaller if they like.

    It is a nice design and a great layout. I like it. I suggest that you submit it to blog directories and add features of links and blogs.

    yep, I would get it listed with many forums especially if you are using adsense.
