Cool My Sports Blog

I run a sports blog that covers the latest sports news. It's called SanatFlapJacks.

www.sanatflapjacks.com

Let me know what you think!

I am big sports fan, especially tennis and basketball. I love the Olympics as well, so you can expect me to read through your blog once in a while.

The background is a bit annoying. You should change that up.

Besides that everything else looks fine, keep it up.

Thanks for the review! I hope you enjoy my blog. Be sure to comment so I know what you think of my opinions.

As to the background, are you talking about the green grass?

Add a badminton shuttlecock up there dude. Its a "ball" game too.
By the way, i think the effect would be better if the background is fixed.

@ Josh- Hey, I just used a premade WP template :p

I am actually looking for a new sports template that features as many sports as possible. As of now, that's the best I got. I'm not sure how I would go about fixing the grass.

In your images folder you have an image called 'grass.jpeg' and I believe that is your background image. You can replace that image with any other background you want.

This is the 'grass.jpeg' ...



Download the attachment file, it has the new background you can try. Might look better. Just overwrite your grass.jpeg with the new one in the attachment. If you don't like it you can just switch back.

Here's the new background...



Here is how it will look...



If you need any help, let us know.
