    Getting more visitors on my BLOG
    HI there,

    I was wondering if there are tips, tricks, or methods to getting more visitors to your blog. It's been up two days, and still in progress.

    PS. I will certainly add it to my signature, I'm sure that''ll help a little.

    Thanks for the advice in advance.

    Is it on a site that is like a community thing where you can browse other users and invite them?

    I checked it out and to be truthful, it's kind of hard to read with that particular background.

    I know... I really like the background, should I just change the transparency of the tables?

    That's what I would do, but I don't know much about blogging... It's just the pics and words are too hard on the eyes.

    I think it would be easier to read if the back ground colors were inverted... white flowers black background.

    I like those backgrounds that have the glassy 3 D depth look to them

    I don't know how to do that, lol. I do however know how to change the opacity of the tables...

    Nor do I know how to make the table for the Twitter part the same as the rest of the tables... LAME.

    I disagree. Then the black print becomes hard to read on the mostly black background. If you make the text white on the black background, then you have the same difficulty of when the white text hits anything white on the background.

    Basically, any background that has such differences in colors will be difficult to read, simply because certain portions of text will not show up very well. A background like that should only be a background around stuff, not behind it. (i.e. more like a border and not a background)

    I agree with the idea of changing the transparency. I would either make it extremely opaque or just dump it altogether. You can make a plain white background for the tables. That would blend in too much with the background, so I would then make the table borders thicker to separate it out more. Of course... I'd have to see it done that way to know if I really agree with myself. :D

    Pink is also difficult to read, on almost any background.

    Just curious... you don't mind that you've just told the entire world your name, location, a pic of yourself.. You don't have to log in to see it, and you don't have to log in to read messages here. So quite literally anyone in the entire world can see that. That gives me the total willies.

    Typically time will help it take off. How long have you had it up?
