Hey all,

I took a commercial Wordpress theme (TidalForce by ElegantThemes) and gradually modified it -- it took me a while because I'm not familiar with WP at all, but I think I'm about done. What do you guys think?

I'd especially like feedback on the color scheme -- is the blue too hard on the eyes, and if so, what colors would you use?

thanks

Nice website! Though I suggest you take a look at the validation: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwysinnwyg.com%2Fblog&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0
With the color scheme, I think the colors you used on your main website would work nicely on your blog.

Ignore the rounded corners, I'll fix them once I've decided on the right color... I'm thinking #3? If I use a gradient, is it better to put the darker blue on the top or the bottom?

thank you!

Usually it looks better with the lighter on top and darker on bottom.
