The color scheme is memorable, and the text is much, much easier to read. I do most of my reading within NetNewsWire, but sometimes I visit the site (particularly when I need to find an old article, or when I want to comment on something). If, in the end, you switch away from this theme, it would be really nice if you could move things around a bit. Maybe increase font sizes. This is coming from a guy in his mid-twenties...so it's not like my eyesight is going. :) To be honest, I like this theme way better.

I don't think I'm biased by familiarity because I normally immediately embrace change when the new is an improvement for me over the old. I don't remember seeing *why* you wanted to make a change. Would you share that (again)? FWIW, now that I’ve used both old and new, I find the old easier on my eyes to read.

Since last 2 days my adsense impressions are 50% low. Infact the page impressions are 50% less then the pageviews shown in analytics stats, which definitely means something is wrong. I am investigating the matter too. Although my wordpress doesn't seem to be hacked but I am checking. I'd also like to tell ya that it may not be a problem with your theme. It could be adsense reporting problem or WP hacked. Please do let us know when you've found a solution. Here's a link which can help you in your investigation: http://ocaoimh.ie/2008/06/08/did-your-wordpress-site-get-hacked/ Martin, I am facing a similar situation.

I installed the theme on a smaller site and will try to figure out what was going on there. Rruben that was a different ad block, not related to Adsense.

I think somewhere until where you now see the "sponsor" title in the sidebar. I was wondering why nothing was there. Maybe an adsense tower ad was not displayed?
