Nice layout, maybe some change in background?

Yeah, I agree. I like the red/black color scheme, maybe you need to get a little red in the background. Maybe something like this:

So I’ve made some changes to the background. Let me know what you think, I’m still browsing for what I think is the perfect match but for now I believe I’m going to keep this one.

Is there anything else that you’d like to see? I’m trying to make the site more user friendly and have the users/visitors become more active with the post and things on the site, do you have any recommendations?

Better now. It will be nice to make top lists content linkable. Like U do with “top 10 things that do suck”. Nice site, I’ll bookmark it, but just because of content. 😉

If U looking for inspiration check this:

Nice background…very nice…but set it to fixed, rather than scroll. Scrolling backgrounds are distracting, and look so 1999.

Nice, I actually completely looked over that setting and didn’t even think about it but very true. Updated and looks much better, thanks for the advice.

@ttdsinfo

Yep, that looks sharp. I love the calendar widget in the footer. That’s actually a really good place for it.

@flobraun

This is easy using a custom menu. (See this tutorial for help.) You really should update to the latest version. You’re missing out on some great new features.
