    The URL is rocking, I wish i'd grabbed it a while ago.

    The site looks kinda white. Not enough images or colour imo.

    It might also look good if you had something which defined the sidebars from the rest of the content. Maybe a spacer? Or something. Anything as long as it doesn't look like the content flows into each other. (If you get my drift.)

    One idea to solve the images, why not place a widget in your sidebar. Or use wpads or something to create thumbnails which could appear in the sidebar. and link through to the photo page? Kind of like how flickr plugins work on wordpress blogs.

    Hope it helps
    Dan

    Wow...interesting blog I should say. The green colors really feat into the theme of your blog. I think it will be nice if you redesign your date blocks...maybe insert the image of the "plant" LOL ...add some more graphics to your blog...and you really should clean up your html code - you have 197 errors :(

    Thank you everyone for your input. Devilkitty, I am sorry, but I am glad you didn't grab it a while ago. Does the sidebar background color work?

    Thank you Uzi, I write everything myself. What do you mean by date blocks? I will be adding pics soon.

    Here is a semi updated version:

    I'm having trouble loading the blog in my browser (IE). I can see the text but none of the images will load.

    Overall it looks awesome. The sidebar for me is dark green with black text, so it's hard for me to make out the black text. The blue/gray date squares don't really fit in, so maybe change that to a picture or green too.

    The site looks good but I think the header is too large it's occupying too much
    of space on the page.

    The site is ok. The header is way too large yes...it looks as though it wants to head off the computer. The links are not attractive. change the color.
