    Hello!

    Well, I recently opened my own website. It is, at the moment, a personal blog, but I hope to add onto it, or to create a resources website of my own. ^_^ What I would like to know is if you like the current design? Do you think the navigation is easy to see and understand? When I went simple, did I go too simple? I know it's a terrible coding job, but I wanted to just try it out. Thanks to multiple CSS sites, I at least got it to where it is. I don't know though. I'm not sure if it's anything outstanding...

    Here's the link: http://allievo.webs.com

    Opinions?

Thanks. ^_^ I'm glad you like the navigation. I wasn't sure if a list navigation would have been better, but when I tried it, it just didn't look right.

It's cute and simple. I like it. I think adding rollovers to the navigation wouldn't hurt though.

i agree, while they do blend in a rollover can help in distinguishing the fact that they do go somewhere or they are clickable.
Pretty awesome CSS work, although there isn't much to base that on, the content font choice is awesome, the spacing is good too easy to read and its not in serif... very good thing.

I agree about the rollovers. For a layout that's so simple, something small like that really spruces it up without ruining anything. Very nice, though. Great job.

very nice :D
& i'm with everyone else on the rollover idea. it also might help if you change the link text to a slightly blended different color. they seem a little to part of the image.

Simple and cute...but where is the credit for the flower?

Don't mean to sound rude or anything.

The simplicity of it is so wonderful.
(No one said wonderful O: and I did)

Like a lot of others said, I really like the green.
Roll-overs wouldn't hurt
The right side looks a bit empty.

Everyone said about everything I was going to D:
But, great job.
