    Bro,

    Nice layout and colour tones, but it's the contents and information that will count afterall.

    Can't wait to read your blog and the valuable information within.

    How about starting a publication? I'll support you with a 1 year subscription.


    Ansell.

    Looks good, but I'm wondering why that leaf? Why not something aquatic?
    Call me Brian.

    P.S. This is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.

    Just started designing yesterday. So not yet. I had another blog back in 2004 which also had a leaf and is called aquoi also. This is like version 2007.

    This is a own time own target project. Will work on it a bit at a time.
    I'm back!

    Aeon, which blog engine are you using?
    Vincent - AQ is for everyone, but not for 'u' and 'mi'.
    Why use punctuation? See what a difference it makes:
    A woman, without her man, is nothing.
    A woman: without her, man is nothing.

    It'll be WordPress which I'm pretty good with. Had a lot of experience building WordPress sites for my clients. My design blog is also on WordPress, with WP-Cache to handle high load.

    Yes there would be juicy links. I hope to document all my experience, what i learn in forums, all the knowledge into it as a very long term, maybe life-long archive of aquarium knowledge. Easily search-able. If possible also display AQ latest posts on my front page so can easily know what's happening in the forum while on my blog. Also maybe can have contributors to write stuff as i probably cannot do it all by myself.

    Haven't started on the coding yet. had some for this work so I'll start next week.
    I'm back!

    Let's see if I can find a leaf pic of aquatic plants. I bought this one from a japanese stock photo site for about 26 sgd. Shouldn't have bought so quickly.

    Yea. We keep aquariums for relaxation and getaway from the stress of work and whatever else. So reading something on Aquariums should be the same.

    I might change the design again
    I'm back!
