I am currently working on my site, http://truemoneymaker.net

The design is really just a free template, but i think it looks good :)

Any tips on improving the design? Maby have it to fit my content better?

Thanks!

The site looks nice, but I think the header is too large. It takes up the entire page at 800x600 (which seems to be the resolution the site's designed for). Also, where the slide drop shadows on the sides of the site stop and the footer ad starts, the contrast is really noticeable (in a not so pretty way). Everything else in terms of the look of the site, I quite like, though.

Thanks for tips, i would like to change the header pic height size to 172 instead of 229, but it won't work just changing the picture.

Anyone know how to change the header size in a WordPress theme? I use the theme called Ocean Mist 1.0.

I'am really thankfull for any help! :)

I have now changed the header, but it dosen't look any better, because the shadow on the side of the page dosen't match anymore...

Anyone know how to make it match? Or should i just change it back to standard size?
