Hey everyone,
this is a sort of wierd request, but can you tell me what you think of the styling of my blog? I didn't make the blog, but I did every single tiny bit of style-ness, so I'm just curious what other people think about it.

Thanks a lot :beam:

the font looks a little small, but that may be my 'old' eyes (yes, I am wearing my glasses)...

otherwise, I see nothing wrong, nothing screams 'oh my god' or anything, so that's good. I'm not fond of serif'd fonts, but that is purely personal on my part.

nice style-ness.

thanks rev-warf
the font is kind of small, and I'm still debating what to do about that. It looks great to me, but I'm 16 and can still see. I don't wanna kill old people like yourself so I might need to up it a bit. :)
The serif font is supposed to resemble a newspaper sort of, but not entirely. I guess I just see to many san-serif sites.

Thanks for the comments :)

then it makes sense to use serif'd fonts...

and yes there are a plethera of sans serif'd sites out there...

you may wish to go one step up in font size, then again, it's cool to use small fonts right now...

how about that for a wishy washy site check?

:D

Yes, I'd be willing to commit to: It didn't make me want to 'review my lunch.'

you are wrong. :P
ahmed (http://www.syntheticorange.com) created the blog, and I did the styles.
So it's a home-made blog thing.
:)

thanks for commenting on the splash page too :beam:
