Does anyone want to help evaluate my blog for my big make-over? | Blogger's Common Room | Forum

David and John,

Thanks very much for your feedback!

Yeah, I kinda knew about the color issue, mainly because Nancy of FAmilyOnBikes mentioned it a while back… otherwise I'd have never known! I've always wondered why nearly every blog is white with black text, since I personally MUCH prefer the dark schemes, like Everything-everywhere….

I was just wondering HOW MUCH of an issue it is. apparently LOTS of people have trouble with dark bck, light text.. ok, it's gotta go.

Thanks!

If you see anything else, let me know.

cheers, Lash

  Hi Lash,

  It's always the small things that get you!

  What I saw at on your blog:

  1) Change the color – there is a reason they print books on white paper and black ink.

  2) At the top of your side bar – have subscription for email and news feeds instead of a search engine.

  3) Book page is great!

  4) Have a "follow" me button for faceboo, twitter, stumble upon, linkedin.I

  I've had good response from stumbleupon and I like the quality of people I get connected with on linkedin vs. facebook

  Twitter is a must – I use hootsuite to post on twitter – lets me do all my posts in one sitting if I want.

  That's all that pops into my mind right now.

  Hope they help you.

  Cheers,

  What the address to your site so we can see it?
