    Here are a few things to work on:

    1. Your logo could be be better, looks just like text right now
    2. Either tie the blue color in the rest of design more or lose the blue color
    3. The text on the header image is a little misplaced, same with the social links.
    4. Define the right column more.
    5. Put the thumbnails on the left of the content instead of the right.

      I like the logo recommendation. I'll work on that. I was struggling with that.

      I really don't want to ditch the blue color so I'll see where else I can tie it in. I experimented with having a blue color be the background for the sidebar for definition.

      I think the comments need a lot of work like you mentioned. Moving the thumbnails is a great idea to start.

      Thank you for your thoughts!
