    Actually no conversions yet.... i just placed something.. thats it... instead of going for adsense.... will replace that banner with something else... right now I dont think that affiliate marketing works for that blog as the audience are not buyers..they come for information only and not for any products.....

    I like it! I think the colors look great together.

    I do have few minor complaints though...

    When I click to view a single blog entry, I was expecting the content column width to expand slightly. It seems like you have so much space on the sides, and yet the content column is so small width wise. I have to scroll considerably just to see a small amount of content.

    The "on" in recent comments' color just doesn't seem to match too well. It's a bit hard to see.

    Your Twitter "what am I doing" just slightly goes off the right border.

    My instinct is to click your logo to return back home, but it isn't linked. It's a habit of mine, and I know for others as well. So it may be a good idea to link it back home.

    Like I said originally, a very nice design! I think it's quite refreshing compared to a lot of other blog templates that we see today.

    Great job!

    Hello,
    Thanks for your valuable feedback... I guess its not displaying properly in your system... yes that template has got a problem... sometimes its having an alignment problem... but it looks perfect if you visit the site on a high resolution display... like your widescreen laptop....

    Thats the reason why you are scrolling down too much... PLEASE correct me if this is not the case...

    Also, check out http://www.minterest.com/ I used the same template for that blog too...

    A nice blog! The colors used were matching to suit the reader. Overall, the only comments I have were to include more photos, as well as to insert some interactive features such as epolling or chat box to better engage your readers...

    Cheers!
    Patrick

    I like the blog, it's a great start, and your intentions for improving one's life is great. In the future you might want to add gold stocks and food stocks to your list of investments. As oil prices soar, and with bio fuels helping food prices go up, those stocks (gold and food) would be a great investment.

    I like the theme. Calendar dark gray text on black background is a poor choice. The square input box in your search is visible over the round corners using Firefox so it looks like you need to fix that. Just make it a couple of character smaller. You might want to also include your name in the contact form if you are not a business. If it is a business, then obviously all contact information should be included in it.

    Hi, I really appreciate your feedback. Well, I do have my name in the contact page (in the title). And regarding the search box... I guess its again due to resolution problem... it works just fine here in IE and FF.

    The search looks fine in IE, but my FF (latest version) the box shape is clearly visible on my pc. Not a big deal. I do see the contact name in the title, but do you think most people look at a title of a page? If it is worth being in the title if should most definitely be worth putting into the content.
