wow

very impressive, I think it great, there is a huge difference between the two and I think the new version is very professional looking

well done!

That is a great change; good job

.

And for some constructive criticism: there are a few things that add to clutter that I'm not sure if they are absolutely necessary. Like for example, the weather & roads module.

Well, I guess by "few things" I meant really only one.

As alana said, well done!

Thanks for the kind words, I have been working hard getting The Ozarks Trading Post set up, and am loving it, I am trying to get my link out to as many sites as I can, and get link backs too, every link I get out there, I get new members, and they are adding content

weather & roads module is absolutely necessary.
here in SW Missouri Ozarks Mtn's everyone watchs the weather and roads, with rain there is flash flooding or the chance of a tornado, winter is ice or snow, and with all the hills a hollars everyone checks the road conditions for closings, so they can find another route to work, I want to make it easy to find this info,

Thanks

definitely an improvement...the old site looks like something from the 90's early 2000's, but the new one is really cool looking.

I think you should improve your header though, I could make out the Raggedy Ann, but not anything else on the scrunched up pic...

For my taste, the header usually sets the tone of the site by branding your name/logo or whatever...actually, unless I missed it...your site name is not even on the page in an "immediate" recognizable way...If I found you from google and wanted to come back later, I may not find you through google again. The site title at the very top isn't sufficient enough, most eyes are trained to look at the web page and not the browser menus.

I can design one cheaply for you if you like, check the one on my page, I designed it.

Oh, you also put Hillbilly Blogers...I don't know if that was an intentional typo or not.

Keep up the good work dude.
