    The yellow text on brown background is very hard to read.
    I had to force my eyes to find the ad units.
    Blending is one thing, but those are poor color combinations that cause us to look away, rather than focus.

    Did you try a light background yet?

    As always- experiment, experiment.....

    Ditto what Claymation said. Don't bother fixing your placement until you have changed colors. Dark text on light background usually produces higher CTRs. If you can't be talked out of it, go with a higher contrast. Choose a darker brown and brighter text. Systematically change placements and colors and keep the improvements. good luck.

    Agree, your site is very hard to read with those colors...and they're boring... Spice it up a bit.

    I still think your background is too dark. Not enough contrast between text and background. Sorry.

    I think your site is misleading. The first video box is an ad and has nothing to do with your site yet you call it video part 1. To me that's a big fat lie and would make me leave right away. The fact that in the video that's showing now it's a picture of a guy pointing a gun at another guy doesn't make me want to stay.

    If you must have 2 video units, have the one that actually has something to do with your site on top.

    And is that the only content you're going to add? What's the point of your site? just to make money (hopefully) from adsense?
