    Design is good, it needs more content.

    Like the theme but it doesn't give me the feel of a contest. Maybe something more along the lines of contestblogger . com

    Looks fine.
    But you should try this CSS property for your content: "text-align: justify".

    [begin sarcasm] Ooo snazzy template in site! Just like the hundreds of others who downloaded the theme! [end sarcasm]

    Anyhow, nice site, still. I like the colors. You definitely should add more content, though, although you've just started, eh?

    Also, I'd think twice about the text-align:justify that ajsa52 mentions. It's a preference issue, but I think some study said it was much easier to read text without text-align:justify because browsers still can't do it well enough.

    looks clean from the start.....get more content... and I would probably use a tower ad from adsense instead of the one you got. Just my stupid opinion though.

    Nice title, nice design but one thing I noticed it doesn't have much information to meet the standard, so add some more content and work on SEO, then it would be come up.

    I like the background design, it's nice. I think a logo instead of just text might really give it a sense of class.
    Your width is very wide and might not be full accessible to all. i.e. try looking at your site at your local library, this is where i see most problems and you find this is the most popular set up.

    The red-orange combination truly is an eye irritant. :(

    I feel the orange colour banner is too flashy and the header is too dull. So, the choice of colours should be balanced. Otherwise the layout and the categorisation are fine
