Have more than a few hours dedicated to my current project. I've moved from about four differently-styled templates now. I feel like I'm getting somewhere with this most recent entry - But am not satisfied and fear I might never be.

I need help. Any criticism and ideas for improvement are more than welcome.

Thank you

You designed this template, or you purchased this template? I take it this is a blogging site your developing, I would say as to overall look it is a clean design. Depending upon exactally who is going to see this, I think I would reconsider the image of you smoking.
