Hey, here's my xanga : http://xanga.com/jesskat182

I got the picture from rollingstones.com and I edited it up a bit so his eyes showed up better and when I saved it, it got all messed up so I had to fix it.

Does anybody have any suggestion for me about what I can improve on my xanga?

Hmm... I really like the background picture, but it's very, very, very default-ish.

I have a Billie Joe-ish layout also tongue.gif . lol I'd say add like a music drop down box, some custom graphics, banner, I dunno, stuff!! let your imagination go! lol When I'm bored I search createblog for anything and everything and anything I find that customizes stuff, I put it on my site. Like, eprop icons, comment links, intro splash screens, dates, gosh you name it. Sometimes I think the only thing I do is customize my website lol. I took a regular Billie Joe layout and began by changing the picture at the top, then I worked my way from there to where the only thing that's left from the orginal is the dotted outline.

All in all I like your site a lot. The background's awesome. But, it is like the other posts have said, default-ish. That's ok though, Green Day's awesome!! biggrin.gif

It's decent, but the colored fonts are hard to read, and that blinking border/header is pretty annoying.

You should get a bigger picture of him, so he's more noticeable-he's practially covered up by the AD, crazy blinking boxes and "It's sexy to be an angry young man, not a bitter old bastard."

i agree. it needs work. maybe get rid of the chatter box and put the blogs in a box and use more pictures and not just the same three colors, and get rid of the blinking boxes.
