I think the new one looks more modern and is on the right track but I don't think the colours work well - they're a bit too strong. Mainly the background colour and the post headings.

Try experimenting with different colour schemes and toning it down a bit. Also, I think it may look neater if you add a bit more left and right padding on the main white sections.

Need more padding on the columns.

Which? All? Because the top column actually had

padding:20px

but got overwritten to

padding: 14px 7px

The text is too close to the border in all three boxes in the layout. I am referring to the pic posted.

I've updated itt. Is it still to close? I think its just right now. haha :p

Certainly better than before. I would increase the spacing 1.5 times but thats just me. Sorry if it sounds pedantic. Margin was a concept beaten to death when I was in school. :p

Its not that, if I increase it too much, the content area gets too stuffed :p

It's getting there. I think you should have made a screenshot of your first attempt for comparison.

I'm still not keen on the post headings colour, I think it might be the shadow on it that put's me off - try taking it off and see what that looks like.

A bit of advice. Remove or rephrase this:

As it stands it looks petty and unprofessional.

Otherwise, I get a 404 error when I visit http://manmohanjit.com/try :/

Haha, yeah. I added that purposely. You can just click the 'X' button and it'll close. About the 404 error. I took it down, please refer to the screenshot I provided earlier.

I actually prefer the original look. I do think it could do with a few colours though. Perhaps some pastel shades?

It looks a little bit too plain to me :( Haha

That is what it originally looked like.
