Can I ask for some blog related feedback?

I'm in the process of updating my blog's look and I'm really struggling with some of the details - like the order of stuff on the side... and whether or not the columns work or if I should have more or fewer, if the background to the entire page should be a different shade...

If anyone has time today to check it out and leave me some feedback here, I'd really appreciate it!

Re: Can I ask for some blog related feedback?

  • I will try and do this tonight. I follow you from my reader.  Also, I think I'm going to whip up some beer ice cream, because, well, that just sounds awesome.

  • It's SO good! You won't regret it!
  • Next week is going to be a week of "clean out the freezer" meals, so hopefully by Friday there will be room in there for the ice cream maker.  Mmmmm, beer ice cream....

  • K, so I think your blog looks fantastic! 

    I really love the header and the columns definitely work.  There wasn't really anything that I would suggest changing to make it better.  The only thing that might make it a touch better is to change the black title font.  I think love the orange one, but the black one right next to it doesn't work 100% for me.

  • How did I not know you have a blog.  You have a new follower :)

    And I agree the header is awesome!

  • Thanks - the header is a photograph I took that I played around with... that second colour has been driving me crazy! I had it white, then brown, then black and now it's a kind of dark charcoal... ugh. I'll keep playing with it!
  • I think the text on the header is fine.  It draws in colours form the picture and has contrast.

    The one I'm iffy (and the style, not the colour) is the parts that say "About Me" and the dates on your posts.  I just think the two different slants of the fonts don't flow perfectly.

  • Yeah, I thought so too... the weird thing is it's the same font!
