    Hi!

    Just made this yesterday(would have posted up sooner what with dp being down and everything )

    What do you all think?
    There's room for adsense near the top if required.
    It's a bit fuzzy in places-I saved it as a jpeg.

    thanks,

    looks really nice..
    But perhaps you can make the background a bit brighter..
    To my mind you can perhaps use the bg of the date beside the post as the bg of the page and vice versa... I think that might lend a more cheery atmosphere to the blog...

    it's just a psd.

    I could turn it into a 3 column..I was thinking that.

    I would also advice you to change the background colour, just look at that flower bullet in the left sidebar, it is so dark that it is not so "readable".
    GL!

    It is lovely, the background I find it ok, just that the green color can be brighter to contrast it out.

    Looks nice but I think if you change colors of menu section will be more beautiful.

    Hi,

    Well done it looks good.

    One more suggestion:

    Put highlights on the bells, this will make the m glisten and all the more charming!

    Hope this is useful
    Good luck
