    I am a woodworker and I like woodwork so I made my website about that:
    Essence of Woodwork

    Please give your opinion on it.
    PS: I know that there are too many ads

    I'm not sure how to put it...

    But the theme just doesn't seem 'refined'... or 'neat'.

    You are right... there ARE too many ads. Get rid of them. Make them more subtle - they're overpowering any content.

    You should narrow down the width so it fits inside 1024px screen.

    Put something to seperate the posts...

    Make everything in the sidebars the same width - the uniformity of little things like elements will give ur theme that little bit extra.

    I tried to make my blogs theme a little bit nice, but I can not remove my ads, they pay me. And I do not think they can overpower my content, because my content is mostly visual.

    Put something to seperate the posts...

    I do not understand, my posts are separated.

    Anyway, I've done something right I think because after four months, that my blog has been alive, I got Google PR2 ( I skipped PR1 )
    and my blogs Alexa Traffic Rank is 100,466 and decreases.

    Overall, I think the site has a decent look and feel for the niche. I agree with othellobloke that something is just not right and it's hard to put my finger on it. It's reminiscent of a static web 1.0 site.

    I understand using the leather background header to break up all the wood but maybe using a graphic header would help.

    As for the ads, I think we all agree there's a little too many. It almost looks desperate. Perhaps presenting them in a differently or arranging them so they don't overpower the site.
