Hello...

I was wondering what you think of http://www.themetalguitarist.com

I know its dark but its supposed to be.

I've been working hard adding new content. If you're a guitarist, do you find the information helpful? In general how is the content even if you don't play guitar.

I'll take any other suggestions you have. Thanks

I like it. The design may be too simple. Try adding a contrasting color like bright orange or blue in small amounts(like rollovers).

As for content, it is definitley usefull. I really like the video tut and the tab is ledgible too.

I think once it has more content it will be a good venture. Especially since alot of cover song tab sites are taken down for copyrights.

I like it, looks a lot like a blog, but there is something going on with the font colors. It's making my head spin...

Big bold headings...good, clear easy to read paragraph font size....I got it!

It's not the colors...it's two different things, and both are easy...though it is up to you...

First one...do not use justify. That's good for newspapers and magazines, but that is about it.

Second one is the picture in the paragraph. It was probably a little bit of a pain for you to even put it there. What if you want more pictures on other bits of info? Try to find a consistent spot you can put a picture everytime. Maybe to the right of the heading. You will have to try to see what is best.

Hope that helps!
