A couple of things that I wanted to post updates about ...
Yesturday, I finially installed the BOTD plugin that Andy Skeldon had created for the WordPress Plugin Competition and won (in the top 3). So now you will be able to see my site and posts on "Blogs Of The Day" that is if it is popular enough or you catch it early.
The next info that is coming up, is that I have a vacation planned from the 28th until the 31st. So you won't be able to reach me and I won't be posting or answering any emails / comments until the 1st of Aug ... 
Sorry about that, but I too need some time off

Site Design Feedback?
Posted by LordMontie
I have been working on a new site design to use for my main site LMB^Box and I would make a WP theme to match for this blog. But ... I've run into a few problems ... I'm not to sure about the look and feel of the design. I've been using Photoshop CS2 to create my design and have created my images to use and have a basic template to lay all the pieces together, but I fear that the text will not be clear ...
What I'm going for in a design:
Well I want a site to reflect what it's about ... Technology, Gaming, Computers, Hosting ... I would like a clean, tech design that looks wonderful. I would like to have some darkness in the design but for the most part be bright ... I really like grays, silver, red, black, blue ... like my current blog's theme and my forums theme.
What I have so far:
So far this is what I have ...
I have created this design using Photoshop CS2 and have just added some text to show where the problems are. The Main Menu will be across the top of the page and will be drop lists (using js). Then there is my header with the site name, url, and logo. Next is a Pathway bar that will show the structure of where you are currently at. Then the main content area with two optional sidebars (think one will always be there ... left). And last but not least, the footer.
Currently I'm making this design to be used with Mambo, so I may just end up replacing WordPress with Mambo even though I love WordPress ... it's just to have only one system to have to work with.
What I need is any feedback as to what you think about the design as of right now ... what improvements could I make ... what's bad about it ... anything at all! I believe I will end up just starting over with a cleaner design in mind and lighter / better colors. So any help / feedback would be wonderfull! Thanks all!
Updated WordPress Version!
Posted by LordMontie
I just got done updating my WordPress Version to 1.5.1.3! There was some security issue with 1.5.2 ... but now it's all taken care of.
On another note ... I'm waiting for any feedback for my Gaming Cafe idea in my home town, Culpeper, Va. I'll see what happens ... I hope to hear some good news back soon ...
