use more css, less photoshop
edit: a lot of the elements of your site could be done with css instead of images
edit 2: also upon further examination it is very rudimentary from a composition perspective, the elements are well done but how simpler can it get than:
HEADER
menu
content
content
content
content
edit 3: also in before "well it's common because it works!"

I had it gray before, but yeah. Blue sounds good, I'll give it at try sometime this week. Thanks, the color blue never really cross my mind, hahaha.
So I edited it, looks good. What does everyone else think?
Yeah, I should've used CSS, but got lazy with the coding. Maybe next time when I make a new layout, hahaha. Oh, and you kinda confuse with your edit 2 & 3. Are you saying like simple/common is good or bad?
no i was saying it was a little tooo simple imo
it seems like you are a good designer judging by the general art work done on your site, you should check out http://www.csszengarden.com/ if you haven't already, i think you would be able to relate to a lot of the more abstract/"artsy"/cartoony designs, PLUS they use css!!

simply having good content and spamming around the internets is how sites like deviantart and somethingawful got started (not that those are the pinnacle of the internet, quite the opposite.)
plus a loyal userbase is always good too, helps word of mouth.
edit: also make sure all your ducks are in a row for the spiders that crawl around, you don't want to be left in the dust if someone googles content you have!

It's clean, simple, and "fun"
I think you hit the nail on the head when it comes to a good design for that kind of site. With a little work you should have no problem getting good amounts of traffic

Overall 9/10. (updated the score to a 9 seeing how everyone is rating other designs I've seen =D)

I don't like the way the font looks in the copyright area and you should try to stick to the same fonts everywhere for a more professional look. Other than that it looks awesome =D. Great design and awesome logo (although for your next design you should use a whale somewhere...lol).
Yeah, I took your advice and changed the font. It's looks better now so thanks. Oh and I added a whale to the site, hahaha.
