    Hi,

    I am going to launch my personal financial blog on next Tuesday.

    (a) How's the layout and the overall design? What internet browser you are using? Any problem with the layout?

    (b) How's the loading speed?

    (c) How's 'About Us'? Anything else that you think I need to include there?

    (d) After you visited my blog, do you know the objective/mission of my blog i.e. what I'm blogging about/for

    (e) 'About Me' at the footer (right-most): is it impressive enough, anything else you think I should include?

    (f) do you mind also to participate in my poll @ sidebar?

    Link: http://www.iankree.com

    Thank you.

    Kind Regards,
    Ian Kree

    Looking at it in FF 3.5.7.

    Like the layout and design,

    your colors look very fresh even though I'm not too crazy about your green background.

    You should try centering the layout and see how it looks.

    Loading speed was ok.

    Don't load about us page too much, keep it neat and simple, so I don't think you should add extra to it.

    Can't find the link the your blog.

    You should have the "about me" in a separate link/page.

    Hope that helps.

    body {
    margin: 10px auto;
    }
    Code (markup):
    It is centered in IE. Anyway, will check. Thank you.

    Hi, I've amend the design with XHTML 1.0 Strict. It is s-t-r-i-c-t, so, hopefully it works in FF too. If w3c strict doesn't work, what else works for FF?

    Please help me to review. Thanks.

    You are centered in Firefox for me now. There is a little too much orange on the page in my opinion.

    Thanks. I used browsershots.org to check. I'm just worry about few minority (less popular) web browsers and older versions of Opera.

    @deyounggerry: thanks. maybe I should highlight/add more of other theme colors.
