new layout

Okay, I finally sat down for a few hours and pulled together a simple layout for my website. I don't have a name for it yet, but I'm workin on that...

Let me know what you guys think of it so far, and what I could do to better improve it.

Nice colors.

Don't like the background +'s too much plus the color of grey conflicts with the other color of grey in the shout out box.

Layout is nice and straigtforward. Doesn't look like too much or too little.

I assume the final version won't be 132KB so I don't need to mention the bandwidth issue.

Good clear fonts and sized well.

Can't think of anything else at the moment...

looks neat, yeah edit the bg so the grey's are closer to the same color :]

yeah i agree about the background... or maybe make them lighter or something... Its a nice clean simple layout so there really isnt to many mistakes... nice work...

the +'s seem like they are just there... they have no purpose it seems.

Thanks for the comments, everyone.

I lightened up the +'s a little more to hopefully make it blend in more. I couldn't think of anything else to use a background, and I don't want just a plain solid color.

Anyone have any suggestions for what I could use as a background?

Also, I think the blank area to the right of my navigation looks a little lonely... should I put something there?

maybe just move the random stimpulations over a bit... and then that will take up some of the blank spot... or made make some kind of a design and fade it in the background of that cell or something... and i think the bg is a little better...

dont like the light blue...only complaint, looks clean n' good

what does everyone else think about the colors? Should I change them a bit?

I really like the colors. cause I like blue
