The designs are much better and more creative.The previous designs were also very nice but they required some refreshment and this website wants a different look so you did..Thumbs to you from side for these designs.
I must say that I got used to new look of this site, I don`t miss old look at all !
We’ve actually updated this look from when we first launched the new layout based on user feedback. Part of that was moving the ads around so they were not so “in your face”.
You have changed the designs of you site.When i came here i feel that i am a wrong place but when i saw the name of the site i stopped and was thinking that the website got changed its designs.Well designs are really very nice..hey i am getting the message of spamming..i did not get it..Have you are going to ban every long time reader.
Yes, testing a new design.
Sorry about the Spam Warning. I’m trying to create a new Comment Spam tool that learns as people comment but it has a few bugs I’m trying to work out. I test things all the time but most of the time the reader doesn’t know it. Sorry!
I really hope you will resolve this issue soon. I have made some posts with another username( raso.hubpages), but still they are not recognized by the sidebar plugins.
Yes, working on it.
Hi, I like the new design more than the old design. However, I would recommend reducing the height of the top box slightly, say by around two-thirds of what is now. Other than that, a good improvement from the old site for sure.

Why did I dissapear from Top Commentators ?
p.s.: I hope I will not be banned for asking this question.
Not sure. Like I said, I’m trying to create a Comment Spam Killer that learns and reacts over time and it has a few bugs but that’s why we test…right?
Hi there,
digging the design, but I would share a word of caution. AS you might have seen (if nood I suggest you snoop around for it) the new “ads above the fold issue” with Google slaping pages that are to rich with ads above the fold and hardly any content to smittherines. I ve heard quite a few stories of people getting their fair share of penalties. So I wouls advise not to use 2x 336×280 …
Just a thought
Sincerely, Buyseech
Yes, thanks for the feedback!
And I got this message as well ? I hope it is just a mistake from plugin
“Notice: The owner of this website has warned you for comment spamming, continuing to spam on this website will result in a permanent Ban.
Have a nice day

Yes, testing a new form of Killing Comment Spam and still working out the bugs. Sorry about that!
I liked the old look of the site, I like new one as well. But I wonder how come that 11 years old domain (this one) have pagerank only 1 ? I have seen some really ugly sites on the internet, but with higher PR ? How come ?
SIncerely.
Yes, old domain and has been around for a long time but haven’t really focused on trying to do much with it until as of late….about 6 mo to a year. Boost the PR is low on the priority list for me. I have another site with a low PR and it brings in a very large amount of traffic and revenue.
The social bookmarks on the left side of the page and the WordPress Users tab on the right side are very annoying to the viewer in that they overlap page content. I recommend you remove those.
Thanks for the feedback.
What screen resolution are you using?
I think the older one was better. It displayed your articles as the primary focus and not a whole lot of advertisements. This new one is completely adcentric and not YOU!
This was a struggle. I thought about moving the ads back to the right side like before….pushing the content back up the page.
Thanks for the feedback!
Further take a look at this article I just gor from WEBPRO NEWS:
Google’s Algorithm Change: When Too Many Ads Attack
Chris Richardson | Staff Writer
Does your site look like a telephone pole covered with ads?
If your site looks like one of those “Post No Bills” wall that’s covered in assorted flyers, ads, and various forms of clutter, there’s a good chance Google’s new algorithm change will result in these ad-covered sites being punished, especially if the ad assault appears above the fold. News of Google’s latest algorithm adjustment, something that’s been hinted at before, was recently announced on Google’s Inside Search blog, and the details are pretty straightforward, that is, until you ask “how much is too much?”
Are you one of the site owners Google is referring to? If so, do you plan on moving your ads around or are you going to wait and see what happens?
Yes, it’s funny the number of people that have sent in emails and the such about the ads issue and recent changes. Regardless of what Google says, does, I think the general feedback from our readers are “Move the Ads!!!!!”
Well Designed !
Who is the genius that designed this cool template.
There deserve HIGH 5 for this….
Ed:)
My main techie guy. I think he did a really nice job creating something a little different.
I just got a warning about spamming on this site which is kind of ironic since that was the first time I have ever commented here, that and the fact that I received an email asking me to check the site out and leave a comment.. Guess I won’t be coming back.
Sorry, I’m testing a new Comment Spam fighting Plugin we built. Sorry you were tagged. Hope to see you back again.
I like your new design, it is easy to read and navigate. I cannot comment on if it is better than the old design because I am new coming here. Keep up the good work and articles.
Great…glad to have ya! Please take a look around and leave me any thoughts and suggestions.
Thanks!
