No one?

the design of the website is pleasant, but when i first arrive, i ask "what is this?".

it's evident that the site has something to do with blogging, but there is no further explanation on the front page. perhaps you could add a short overview with a link to the "about" page?

What about some Eye catching icons to let visitors know what the site is about. I would suggest 1 for 'Create your own blog for free' and 'View recent blog entries' or something like that.

I don't like the grey/silver colour but that is just my own preference.

Very nice layout and bottons and colour scheme but as soon as you come to the page there isant a screen telling me how to get help which can lead to a bit of problems

Everything else is pritty good.

That site is tooo graaay and boring. You must add something what pay somebody's attention to your site, it wouldn't be only gray color for sure. Remember- more colors.

mmm,,
thise design is not "Eye catching": the color is "naithly".. can't find any icon.
I Suggest to use more than one color.

Humm... i agree with many of the other comments made here. I think the buttons look a bit bulky and I think the header could do with some playing with. However its easy to navigate etc, just don't really understand what its about!

While I don't have an issue with the color scheme (I am a bit of a gray-o-phile), I do think you need some graphics on the page to spruce it up a bit. A gray site looks much better when you have some eye-catching graphical elements on the page. Also, try to get more creative with CSS elements in the table. Use some background shading or different border colors other than just black -- just a recommendation.
