Adnan, PM sent.

Btw, will implementing a new theme screw up the posts I already have on my blog? Never done that before.

Either this is a problem or a deceptive ploy to get people to view your blog

England forever - Rohail did have genuine problems. And I don't think the extra 10 uniques he got would have made that much difference.

Rohail thanks for the PM Im gonna be emailing that guy. I hope he can help me out!

O yeah, and I've never changed themes before, but search on the Wordpress Codex for it just in case. Backup your blog fully before you do any changes to your template just in case.

Ok so call me " Curious " if there were problems then i hope they are sorted but it's still 10 more than he had earlier on today.

Yeah England Forever, this really was just a shallow attempt at getting more hits on my blog. I should go to jail for this. In fact, do you wanna alert me to the authorities? "Deceptive ploy"--wow.

No problem, Adnan, will do. Btw, do you think Matt can help me out with a custom theme?

I suppose all i am trying to say is this forum is littered everywhere with " View this " & " Check out my pixel site " & " What do you think of this "
I thought this was a place to discuss ideas, exchange opinions etc and not become a shop window for every website on the planet.

Traditionally, as far as I can remember and have been a member of this forum, critiquing and getting opinions on sites has always been a part of the community. I don't see anything wrong with that. I do see spam and irrelevant advertising as something that shouldn't be going on. However, I don't have a problem with, "New site- check it out, what's your opinion on it?".

Yes but Rohail doesnt do it all the time like the spammers that come aka one psot wonders before us mod's catch them(i wish people would report the thread rather then spam reply on it though). Anyways Rohail has only done it when he is asking for help and advice and nothing else you are looking at things that arent there you should look at it in another perspective probably with an open mind

In that case i apologise, and after looking at the blog again yes it is a bit " wonky " now theres a technical term you don't hear every day.
