quick loading
good design
can you use a brighter shade of green
and have a transperant background for the google ads

My 2 cents worth

Thanks. Yeah, I thougth the same thing about the ads, but thats the only way i could get them to show. I might keep trying later.

I'd say it's pretty good. I like the way the site looks with the whole green/white layout and design.

Just 2 suggestions. I would center the ad in the ad space (on the left side column)... and I would maybe put the quicksearch button a few steps higher, as it can be a main part of the site.

Other than that, great. 8.76/10

Thanks for the input! Much better than I expected.

With Opera the content is loading below the bottom of the page
You see an empty green border at the top

Really?..... I don't know how to fix that. I am on a sitebuilder program, and don't think I can fix that.

I suggest learning a little HTML if you don't know already. http://w3schools.com/ is a good resource for that. Knowing even little allows you to modify your website a lot more, e.g. solve problems like the Opera bug.

HTML really is no difficult language to learn... well, it's not even a "real" programming language anyway.

The site looks good though

But yeah, I think you should also do something about the ad bar. Just a little adjustments and you're there!

Thanks. Will check it out

I like the look of the blog in general. It goes well with what you are trying to accomplish with the site. Looks professional and function. A couple suggestions: The 125x125 Ad box should be centered to give it more of an appealing look. The google adsense on the left sidebar would look and prolly perform much better if you blended it in with the template of the site. Also posibly add a little header google adsense ad, maybe maybe not its all preference there.

Good Luck!
