Got a new drupal site at Writing Community.net. Used the abac theme and some modules for the first time--riddler, akismet, spam, chatblock, fivestar, and a couple others. A pain, but it was a good learning experience.

Reminds me of the cutline theme. Not bad, but the 4 pages of links on the left menu is a bit much.

Thanks for the input, John. The links... I agree. I guess I'm just experimenting to see how it will affect my first search engine stats. I think today I was declared the stupidest webhost in history on the Drupal forum, so forgive me if I don't know what I'm talking about.

Sometimes I don't know how I manage to webmaster 3 drupal sites...

I totally agree with john. Your left navigation bar is just too long.
Maybe you can split it by adding some hierarchy, or place links to separate page (or pages).

Another thing, john had mentioned logo (in comment Subject), but I don't see any logo.

The entire theme seems to have changed since I first looked at it. There was a logo at one point ;)

Yeah. I'm using abac for my site hotdiets.net, so I'm tired of looking at it. Hehe... Plus it just didn't feel right for me.

Just embedded music for some entertainment value as well...

Jeepers - I just about jumped out of my skin, as the stereo volume was up quite loud, and I didn't for one minute expect auto playing music on a writing site! Personally I think only sites such as youtube should use autoplay media. Just my opinion of course.

Haha!

Yeah. It's kind of interesting at this point. It doesn't play while a user is viewing a node though... Not sure what I'm going to do about it. But for right now, I like listening to it while configuring.
