I really like the new logo and it works perfect with your site tag… Well done!

Did you design it yourself?  I built mine via Word and cropping a screen shot… I'm thinking that there has to be a better way.

Honestly I think I liked the previous logo better (It was the pig one correct?) The "i"sort of looks like a "t" when you first glance at it.

I like the header and logo.  I really don't like the post image on the left.  The text is centered, so I look there, then my eye is pulled left, then I realize its just an image and nothing else to go along with the post and I look center again then I want to click.

 

Comes down to the Left-Right reading for me.  I would put text, image, click.

I like it, but your tagline is a little hard to read.

Thanks everyone for the feedback! I'll be working to enlarge the header subtitle text a bit – make it easier to read. As for the reading format – images on left with text to write – I'm inclined to keep it this way for right now. If you look at other popular finance sites such as ModestMoney.com or PTMoney.com, they both have a similar left-to-right read format. Also, my theme is limited (considering buying a new one, but not before I earn more from the site).

I think it looks pretty good and more professional than your previous one. I would agree that the slogan can be a little bigger.

On an off topic, I sent you an email some time ago, but you didn't reply – what plugin are you using for your comments and contact form? Or are they built into your theme?

Anton,

Sorry, I seemed to miss it! Don't have it… :/

I use the Jetpack plugin from Automatic/Wordpress.com. Then, I turned on the comments by Jetpack. Also, I use a comment redirect plugin once you write a comment (just thanking visitors).

Hope that helps!

P.S., Thanks for the feedback.
