A new Theme.. Do you like it?
As you may have noticed (if you come to this blog often), there has been a change of theme, from the “brown-ish” look to “gray-ish” look now 
There are still a few tweaks here and there before I can get it 100% right. However, there are only minor things, hopefully.
I’m still using a FREE theme, at least until I can get enough $$ from this blog to purchase a personalized theme (they can cost quite hefty!). I like the theme, except that it only has 2 columns and has the “Weight Loss” and “Beach Resorts” links at the bottom of the site 
Anyways, please provide some feedback on the comments. Is it too whitey? Is it too dull? Is the font readable? Etc.
Thanks for coming and loving this blog. Because of you, I have fallen in love to it as well! I hope this fresh change makes you love this blog even more

I really like this theme. It is very clean, very clear, not busy at all and I think it attracts the reader to stay and read more of your posts.

Haha, it’s okay, Ellen. I’ve changed the vote for you
Thanks for coming and be the first to comment about the new theme!
To those who said you don’t like both themes, it’ll be appreciated to let me know on why, so that I can improve this blog more
I like it, but I think I liked your old one better. This one does seem a little “whitey”. I guess I tend to like ones with some dark in them. I always like a change though!

Nice Articles you have there. Very informative. Keep them coming….

I like the new theme.
It’s good!
Don’t quite like the old theme. -_-
Deimos Tel`Arins last blog post..The Sims and Preliminary Lien Notice
I ran into this problem last night redesigning my blog. The links were in two places, the links themselves were in the footer.php file, and a picture the theme author used to promote their own site was in the stylesheet in the footer section. You might check there?
PS. You’re on for Shark Week later today.

Thanks, guys. I guess it’s 50-50 again as usual lol (some like it, some don’t)
@RagingTech: I know where the links are, but I guess since the Theme is free, I’m not allowed (ethically) to take the links out
yes I prefer new look of your blog! Looks fresher than previous one

When using a free theme I hate when people put those links in there. Sometimes it’s not even the author that does it, but whoever is redistributing it.
I have no problem linking back to the author or even promoting their other work. Sometimes I’ll even send the author a little cash via paypal. But I either nofollow or remove spammy links. There is no reason they should be there.
dews last blog post..It’s all calming down
I think you’re going to get bored with all this pristine white space pretty quickly - I know when I had one that was mostly white it got on my nerves after awhile.
There are things l like about this theme and things I don’t like.
I don’t like the font color - it needs to be black to contrast better — this gray just doesn’t get it.
This theme says NOTHING about you — no branding no logo, nothing. It’s milquetoast bland.
As for changing stuff around a bit — I haven’t seen a theme yet that the author didn’t encourage you to make changes as long as you left the link back to them somewhere — how else will they get the recognition they deserve for their work.
As for a custom blog — well from what I’ve seen 75% of the “customization” is in the form of graphics. Find a theme LAYOUT you like and get the customized graphics made to go int he spots where graphics go and you’re home free.
I personally like the more real estate for posts, but that’s my requirement for my own blog as ads are way down on my priority list. You are probably making money from adsense and so forth so it might make more sense for you to have a 3 column layout.
You don’t have an option in your survey that fits my opinion, so I didn’t click any of them. — that’s me — contrary.

Very clean. I like it.
The links at the bottom are one reason I tackled creating my own theme. That is just too much. 4 links
yeah this is way better ,, i wasn’t that fan of the old theme . actually didn’t liked it
i like sites clean and simple
ameos last blog post..OpenSources " would you like that "
Content is king, but I love the new look. I’ve always liked a clean fresh look. Sometimes in a darker scheme things tend to get lost.
I always learn something new when I visit your blog.
What did I tell ya Michael, people like it more =D
I love this better than the previous one’s.
Very neat, simple and clean theme. Reader can focus on the your post.
iriss last blog post..Feel like you want to create a new logo or just want to doodle?
I like this theme, it highlights the true gem of this site, the content. Only thing I don’t like is the fact that you have two icons for feedburner (one normal and one for email). Thats the only thing I don’t like.
I liked your old theme, it was better. If you have taken white, grey or silver, then you can think of some glass effects
Hey Michael I gotta say I love the new theme. I like it better than your old one, I’m a web 2.0 kinda guy and this has that nice sleek look to it I love it. Keep up the good work =)

I think it looks GREAT. Very clean and streamlined without being boring.
Lightening@Lightenings Blogworlds last blog post..Entrecard Blog Review: Will You Mind
The new theme looks quite nice although I also like your old one. I would maybe go for a dark page background instead of the whitey gradient. But as you can see from all those different opinions on this post: Tastes are different
Anas last blog post..Cats on Tour through Egypt: Cairo Zoo
So many great feedback, I’m not sure how to answer them all! O_o
I’ll try to tweak it further down the track and maybe put something a bit darker as it tends to go too white once you scroll down a bit. Or maybe but more banner images on the sidebar lol
