Free Freebies

design okay?

It loaded fine for me! I even got a free sansdisc while cheaping it out! I'll be checking it out more often! Thank you

Honestly, the logo beside the title on the top is not relevant.
The google ads are annoying and you should change your blog and use wordpress instead.

Add pages to your site

The blog loaded fine - I'm in Australia so depending on where the server is it can take a while for me to load websites sometimes.

The logo could be smaller since it really does dominate the page.

A search facility may help so that visitors can find what they are looking for easily.

Regards,
Karen

thanks guys, changed the layout, but starting to think this one looks better http://naturegift-btemplates.blogspot.com/ what do you guys think?

hey - i checked it out!

it loaded easily. i like your content, but neither designs that much. i'm personally not a hug fan of the cartoon mastheads so popular with bloggers unless they're really cool (like daily candy's cartoons)... but that's a personal thing.

on the first blog, i thought you could list more content (instead of 5 or however many deals are there, list 10-12).

but that said, you've got a lot of great freebies, which i look for all the time to post on my site, www.nycrecessiondiary.com. i saw something you posted in another forum (free snack or something) that i'm going to post tomorrow or so and credit to you! so keep up the good work!

I checked out your site, you do have a lot of cool freebies. You might want to have a category that changes with the holidays or seasons. For instance, back-to-school, right now many parents are looking for school supplies. Just a thought! I'll keep checking back.

I checked out your blog and banner version 1 would seem to match better, color wise. It's simple and clean.

However, I do like version 2, it's colorful and a little more playful.

Hope that helps!

I like it but not that big of a fan of the text color, but i guess I could always ask them to change it down the line
