    I really would love your honest opinions on my new blog where I teach beginners to write for the web.

    It's very clean and informative. I'm not sure if I dig the FULL browser view as opposed the the centered look, but it's not that distracting. Did it come that way in the blog theme? Also, solid use of widgets.

    The layout is perfect. A bit too many social bookmarks there for my liking.

    No offense intended but the written english doesn't flow very well and for a blog that teaches others about writing it should :)

    First of all, it redirects us to a subfolder called 'Wordpress' which is a little unprofessional.

    The social bookmarking buttons are a little to big and stand out too much and to me the website looks too third class, I think it might be the theme.

    Other than that I think your website is fine, it has a decent amount of content.

    Thanks for the input, everyone. I was bugged about those social bookmarking buttons too. Getting rid of them now.

    I will try to tighten up the writing, I get excited and ramble, always edit articles but didn't edit these posts. I will though.

    Third class? Ugh, now that one hurts.

    As far as the URL redirect, when I set up the site I had no intentions of wordpress being in the address, but when I installed it that's what happened. I called Go Daddy and they suggested a redirect, they said there was nothing else I could do. But I have had sites where I installed Wordpress using Fantastico before and it didn't have that extension. I am pretty bummed about this.

    Thanks, Raj12345

    You mean the wide screen? No but it came with a lot of ability to change things up, which I have now totally screwed up by trying to get it on the URL without the wordpress extension.

    Can someone tell me now to fix this? My theme is gone, I tried to change the address in the settings section, and eveything went kapute!
