The place for advice, feedback, and friendly blogging chatter.
Have you just published a new post and are dying for some feedback? Did you recently start your blog and could use some layout or design advice from your more seasoned peers?
Tap into the wisdom of The Daily Post blogging community and leave your question here in the comments. Others can then click through and offer input either on your site, or in the comments here (feel free to indicate which you’d prefer).
To help us make the Community Pool a productive space for discussion, here are some tips you might find useful:
TIP: To keep from losing your place in the comment thread while you visit others’ blogs, right-click on a link to open it in a new tab or window.
- While you’re not required to, we encourage everyone who requests feedback to also reply to at least one or two other bloggers who need some help. Spread the love!
- The Community Pool comments section can get quite big — and starting duplicate threads doesn’t help. Thanks for not posting the same question more than once!
- If you’re looking for quality feedback, be as specific as you can. Questions about a particular post tend to draw more comments than ones about entire blogs. Questions about specific design elements are more likely to be answered than ones asking for general layout advice.
- We discourage leaving links without a more substantive message or question. These are often overlooked by other bloggers, and we frequently remove them to make the comment reading experience smoother.
- Please keep all comments civil and constructive. The idea is to have fun — it’s a pool, after all!
- If you haven’t looked at our Commenting Guidelines in a while, now might be a good time.
- No running on the deck.

Hi all you talented guys I could really use some advice on my layout and font etc as I have only ever kept it simple – and as you will see very dark! – since joining three years ago! For me writing is the main focus but I admit to laziness rather than ineptness on the visual front! Any pointers greatly appreciated ! Thanks

I just launched my blog, http://monstersanddaffodils.wordpress.com a few days ago. I’m keeping it pretty simple, but it will include more artwork as I go along. There’s a bad scan of a bad drawing (if you read the post, you’ll understand why) attached to one post now, and while the badness of the scan and the badness of the drawing are appropriate to the circumstances, I’m not thrilled with the layout- especially in regard to more serious drawing down the pike. If anyone would care to take a look and advise me on how to go about gaining a little more control over this, I’d appreciate it. And any other feedback you care to give would be welcome, too. I’m an artist, we know how to take crit, don’t be shy.

I’m finally recovering from writing a three part series on my experience with domestic violence. It was exhausting to write, but necessary. The issue is commonly seen as strictly heteronormative; it’s time for that perception to change. I’m going to tackle something considerably more lighthearted soon enough, but for those of you who missed them, here are parts 1 through 3. It is important that the LGBT community finds its own voices heard in the public discourse of domestic violence and perhaps one day we will see a time where victims are not seen as embarrassments or wastes or regarded as anathema by their families and friends.

Thank you very much Michele and thank you for reading! I was very committed to these pieces and they took a toll on me emotionally as well as artistically. I have not found it possible to write much, if at all, this week due to how much writing all three essays took out of me. Now that my mind is a bit more clear, I’m getting back on the wagon soon.
Do check out parts 2 and 3 if you haven’t yet; I’m happy you liked them and that you even read them, as long as they are! đŸ™‚

It is about minimizing toxins in the home environment, products we use, and clean eating. I also incorporated my love of essential oils into it. Is there anything I forgot to add to the design of it or tips to share??

On a recent post about a pizza vending machine, I asked myself if I should be writing the plural of ‘pizza’ as the common English usage ‘pizzas’ or the correct Italian word ‘pizze’. I was born in Italy and speak fluent Italian so I struggle with writing the anglicised form (which is not a real Italian word at all). On the other hand, I think the latter might make me sound pretentious? Thoughts on this would be appreciated. Link below. Thanks. http://ambradambra.wordpress.com/2014/08/31/rise-of-the-vending-machine-pizza/
