Blog: Have a design on the design?

Hey all,
In the near future I think I may put some time into redesigning the site a little. There’s a few things I have in mind, but before I get into serious planning, I’d like to know what you think. What could be added, removed or changed? What current features do you like? Also, let me know any webcomic’s sites you think I should emulate (and any I should avoid like the plague)
In other news, you should read SmallThingsEatingBigThings.com. It has cartoons of small things eating big things.
Peace,

That “cool sites” list should only be shown through a drop-down list
Spread your buttons out, it doesnt look right with black spots around the cube
The search bar should be near the top of the page
Sort out the archive list, dont make users have to scroll down like that
Your site’s pretty functional. Why don’t you add some ads and make a little profit so you can advertise the comic a bit? Your work should reach more eyes.
I think it’s fine.
The comics are hilarious. I love the site, maybe adding a forum would help connect you more with the readers.
I really don’t think there’s anything extra you need to put. If you want you could colour coordinate the site better from standard CP design. I’d agree about the whole change up your menu buttons though.
Note, if you are going to do a redesign, I suggest redesigning from the new CP files (the 2.7s etc). It’ll give you some much easier things to work with (i.e. automatic full navigation, easy borders, etc).
