    Well I managed to finish v3 of my wordpress theme and I was wondering what people think about it. It has 3 columns, a few adspots and I think every thing blends well! What do you think? Here's the link

    Too many posts on the main page,I'd suggest you put less posts on the homepage.

    I agree, there are too many articles on the home page. If you want that many articles there you might want to make the center div scroll.

    Same to others, less content should make it more attractive.. otherwise the theme is perfect..

    I think the site is pretty clean. However, I would recommend centering the site. With widescreen there is too much black on the right.

    I agree, to many posts on the main page. The design and layout, aswell as color scheme is perfect.

    cool but only one things seems not to be ok .. the free space on the right.. it just makes it not look 100 % ok. Apart for that it is a nice 10 grade theme. Thumbs up

    Well, I hate to be picky but if you're going to design WordPress themes and ask people to critique them, you're going to need a thick skin. Your theme has a lot of invalid code. Now to most people valid codes means squat, but in the web design design world, you will be surprised how important valid clean code really is.

    Visually your theme looks very good..but you have about 56 warnings from the validator that you need to clean up

    Visually, your site does look very nice. You do need to fix a lot validation errors. You definitely need to center the design. I thoroughly despise non-centered websites.

    The site is looking really nice. A few things I noticed that were something I disliked are stated below.

    Pale yellow color under the search, name and email.
    Comment box borders fade (should be full just like the rest of the boxes to blend with the design)

    Keep up the good work.
