    Default Just redesigned, what do you think?

    I just finished redesigning my Photoshop Tutorials Blog and would like to get some feedback on teh new design. Currently there are slight cross-browser issues, especially in Firefox, but that will be fixed soon. I am not sure if it was a good idea to write the title on teh header using a gothic font.. what do you think? anyway, all the ideas and commenst are welcome, thanks in advance for looking!

    hey lorelei, nice to see you guys again The site looks absolutely fabulous, lot changed since the last time i saw it. Hmm, did you notice that the statcounter box shows up on the bottom? Might want to make that invisible .

    Oh and perhaps you might wish to incorporate that paintbrush logo you had on the previous version somewhere on this one, as that looked really nice. overall its a great theme that is easy on the eyes and well organized!

    Hmm... the redesign surely looks cool. However, I found the previous design (the brush with a drip of paint) to be more beautiful. Not that this one is anything less. Heck, this is just as good.
    Really, you're one great graphic designer who inspires me. I too want to be one of those 'great' designers some day They just come up with such beautiful designs, and all!

    Clean and Simple, the way tut site should be.

    The one line ads by dividers are kinda pointless because they have low click through rates and hurt your design.

    Work on the footer a bit.

    Overall: just clean and simple , and it should stay like that.

    I'm not truly impressed at this design as I was when I reviewed your previous designs. The Header looks good but There are two of them. Each Graphic when seen individually gives a good look but collectively in a theme, I dont like it. I also would like the google ad right under the header to be removed.

    Lorelei,

    Overall your blog's layout is pretty good. The google adsense ad below your header should be removed to another section of the site. I would move it to the middle between blog posts for two reasons.

    1. It will be more effective (you will get more clicks) if you place the ads between blog posts

    2. By placing the ads right below your header, it takes the professionalism away from your site and gives it a cheap feel.

    That's all I recommend, other than that, it's looking good!

    Keep it up.

    Joe

    Heyyy

    Nice redesign I like the banner/header thing, it looks great and very cool Your site looks very professional which is great I agree with the guy above me though, the ads are a bit too in the way and it does make the site look a little less attractive.
    But I love it

    thanks for all the comments and feedback guys!

    Joe 2.0, I know the ads make the blog look cheap, especially at such a "prime" position, but this is the only way blog get monetized through, so i have to find some balance between ads and design. after all, most top bloggers have much more ads.

    I agree with those who said its not mind blowing, rather clean and simple, but before that i had a rather funky design and though i'd try something different.
