      Thanks Ernie! I’m hoping it makes my reviews easier to find on the site and I intend on changing the featured posts weekly

    Looks great, except there’s a big blank space to the right of your posts where the sidebar should be. Is it supposed to be like that? I would show the sidebar, but that’s a a personal preference.

      Oh ! So you would show the side bar even on the posts screen , that’s an interesting thought I hadn’t thought of that, thanks so much 🙂

        It’s up to you, of course, and whatever your theme allows. I just think it would look better than a blank space. Plus, the sidebar has useful information. 🙂

        It does, but if you could widen the post area, and move the sidebar further right (to align under your top menu like you have it on the home page), it might look even better. Sorry, don’t mean to be a pain in the ass. 😆

    I immediately liked the picture of the fox with megaphone. I think the text is fairly well laid out. I am new to this site and still trying to learn how to edit my own, so I don’t really have any critique. I like it. Nice work. 😁
