Hey everyone! Take a look at the site (some of you already have) and let me know what you think I could do to improve it.

Daniel,

You site looks REALLY GOOD, nice and clean. Even you pictures look good.

One thing I noticed and it took me abotu a day to figure out how to fix, under the comment box you have thsi error> You may use these HTML tags and attributes:

I am not on my Laptop right now but msg me if you would like a link on how to fix that.

Other than that your site looks REALLY good man!

Just to expand on Marks comment:

This isn’t really an error. Rather, it’s to help inform your readers they can use those HTML attributes in their responses. A lot of people would be unaware they could include a link, or make their text bold, or whatever.

I agree, it’s slightly distracting to someone with HTML (and WordPress) experience. However, for all those readers who have no idea… it can be more of an aid, than a distraction.

I suppose it’s really up to personal preference of the website owner.

Wow…… You learn something everyday! Josh thank you for that info, I NEVER knew that, when I saw it for the first time it looked like a code error to me, but now it make sence, Man it took me a few hours to figure out how to remove it loll.

PS: I still think it looks cleaner without it though.

Hey Daniel! How did you fix that false menu highlighting issue??

@ Mark,

I absolutely agree. MUCH cleaner without. I just can’t bring myself to get rid of it on my site (trust me, I’ve thought about it). Maybe I’ll write a plugin which removes the text, and adds it as a tooltip when you mouseover the comment box.

@ Daniel, @ Prasanna,

I’m curious about that menu highlighting also. Please advise.

Josh – Please keep me updated with that plugin if you do end up creating it.

@prasanna and Josh,

I didn’t really fix it, I just made the URL path for the menu items #. I don’t like it because it looks clickable but doesn’t take you anywhere. BUT it looks better than it did. I’m just chalking it up to a temporary fix until I can find a permanent fix…

Hmmm.. I didn’t actually hover on your menus. Just looked at your site and closed the tab. (irritating sentence.. I know)

Yeah, I too tried that hack as somebody suggested in WP forum, but didn’t like it either.. 🙁 I’m looking for a descent fix…
