Not gonna lie, that's a pretty awful color scheme.

The orange looks bad against the green, and the green hurts my eyes.
Change the orange to a different color completely (a dark one) and either desaturate the green a lot or make the green darker and make the text light.

Blogger actually has a 'layout generator' that will make acceptible-looking pages for you. Yes, they're a bit generic; but they're functional; and a sensible bet until you design a colour scheme that's not eye-bleeding.

My page went through quite a few changes before I ended up with a setup I liked (and didn't offend the eyes of others).
Specs 'n' Headphones has been revamped! Check it, yo.

Alright, I've changed the color scheme to a default one for now. It's hard coming up with one that really works, so I'll post a few here in a little bit to see which one is generally preferred.

EDIT: OHHHH, man I'm an idiot. I had it checked so that it only displayed weekly views. That's why the page views suddenly dropped, hehe.

Beeteedubs, bookmark'd dis.
Good writing, looking to see this site stay and improve, and I've been looking for a good source of new indie games.
Keep up the good work, man.
好love好

This is slowly going to evolve into a Kotaku or something.

A guest review approaches! Writing isn't quite as polished as I'd like it to be, but hey, I'm not the one writing it.

Thanks! There's gonna be another review up tomorrow, so I would encourage you take a look tomorrow night.

And it isn't just fangames. Those will probably be on rare occasions.
