please review my new blog's layout!

Hi I just finished redesigning my site but something still looks funny about it

Here's the address:

Any suggestions or comments would be very helpful!

Thanks!

quina,

Only thing when it comes to the layout is a tiny bit darker background at the navigation bar and a bit longer shadow at the bottom when seen in IE6. Otherwise identical (Opera 7.32, Mozilla FireFox 0.8, NS 7.01).

Your links page has centered text. Perhaps a left aligned two columned nested list layout would make white less dominant and the page easier to read.

Otherwise, great design! :)

Looking forward to see photos... :D

Nice! Original, interesting, scalable (text), and legible. Good work! It looks a little bit 'off' in IE, but it's nothing that needs to be changed IMO. To be picky, the slanted shadow above the content could be smoothed out... as could some of the slants on the nav, but that's not neccesary. I agree with the two columns, by the way.

(For the record, FFIX rocks... though Quina (http://www.uweb.ucsb.edu/~joyv/quina.jpg) might not be the best character... and if that's not where you got your name... then... *runs off and hides*)

Very new wave 80's vibe going on. The background image could be annoying to some, but I think the key is the color changes are spaced out enough to tone it down to where it's ok.

Thanks a lot for your comments! I really appreciate it!

And I fixed the links page to make it two columned instead of one. But the shadow at the bottom bothers me so! I don't understand why it looks so odd in IE and so normal in Firefox.

And Omega I did get my sn from FFIX. I didn't know people remembered who Quina was! I hardly used s/he much in battle but I loved its personality :)

<offtopic>Same here- I always used Zidane, Vivi, Steiner, and Garnet (I refuse to call her Dagger)... pretty simple; use Vivi for magic, use Steiner for magic swords, Zidane for pounding and support when neccessary, and Garnet for full time support. I didn't train anyone else, though... and I ended up getting stuck at Necro. I still love the game, even though it had to have a seemingly impossible final boss. <sigh /></offtopic>
