www.uteck.net/i was playing with blogger.com (googles free blog service) and made my own xhtml/css2 template. ignore the posted news... that was there so i could play with the template. just looking for your opinions on how it looks. so i can improve it.

The layout itself looks good, I'm just not a fan of light coloured sites; I find them to be "cold" and tend to use earthier jewel tones.
Perhaps a darker font and a bit darker background colour to break up all the "white", but that is just my preference in a site.

A darker font? It looks black to me.. But it looks cool allen, the font (Georgia it looks like?) suits it i think. But overall, I've tried blogger.com before and Google have done a good job with it. Maybe try with a proper header instead of just the 'uteck.net' text, but that's about all I think that may need a real change.

i like it allen. it's understated. muted tones suit you i think, so i agree with your colour choices.
one thing tho, is the images, i think they are too big and should be resized.

very nice. cold? earthier jewel tones? you mean black and dark green. i find darker layouts harder to read and i like this one alot the banner is only thing for me its too small and text is generic. plus get rid of the underline in the link back to the homepage from the uteck text ;D

I'm not a fan of the blogging craze thing, though some of them can look nice, it's does look nice actually but i would mabye use slightly smaller images in the posts, and mabye lighten the "posted by" text a little, because it takes your eye off the post when trying to read it.
What made you decide on the domain name? odd one lol

earthier tones doesn't just mean black & dark green; Cypher's site design is good, it's clean and laid out nicely, I just have a personal preference to not having quite as much light/bright colours on a site, I find it hard on the eyes if there is alot to read.
