Kindly Review My Blog On Indian Stamps : I will definitely Review Back

Hi Kumar

A nice and neat blog.  All info virtually at the tip of your fingertip.  A great relief to the eye and the brain alike.

The only suggestion I have is about your sidebar where the text appears submerged!  Why not change the background colour to bring in better contrast?

Keep blogging, Kumar.  And if you get the time please review my blog.

Lovely blog Kumar... i am absolutely in love with your idea... the journey of the indian culture thru philately ... u know when i was a kid, i used collect stamps like mad, had some 2000 odd stamps in the stamp books :-) but slowly as i grew up the enthusiasm died down... and i never thought the way u thought about it ...

lovely one! and also thanks for reviewing my blog.

Hi Sauvik,

Thanks for your morale boosting words, Kolkata still continues to be home for many philatelists .I Started collecting stamps when I was in class 4 and had given up in between.But now i possess some of the rare stamps in the world including Penny Black (world's first stamps) and Huge collection of Penny Red (World's second stamp).

Keep in touch

Regards,

Kumar

An International Philatelic Exhibition Is Going To Happen in Feb.They are releasing a stamp made out of Khadi Cloth.You may be interested http://indianphilately.blogspot.com/2011/01/ode-to-khadi-article-on-khadi-stamp.html

Require more comments and how I can bring in more visitors to the blog

A very happy new year to you all

One of its kind...Neat and crisp blogs with lot of information hanging on to them. The idea and effort behind this deserves lot of appreciation. A facebook link could help you attract some more visitors.. Also may be a more colorful theme though the curren one looks a lot elegant to the subject you have chosen..

Thanks for the words of appreciation..I had already posted the link on facebook and will try to incorporate your idea of link from Blogger to facebook..Read your blog post on egg allergy..My 2yr son is allergic to egg as well :-) ..I am going to bookmark your blog and go through it.

This blog has been a learning experience for me.

It took me a while to figure out how to place a like button ..finally added the same.Thanks for the value add..it will bring some more traffic to my site I believe.

Wow. Where do you get your information from - there is a ton of detail in there. Almost encyclopediac in its breadth and depth. And did you actually start blogging in 1994? Did not know blogger existed back then :).

But more seriously, like most poeple I used to do stamp collection as a kid, and now they are probably in storage in my parent's place. Seeing someone take each stamp and treat it individually as a learning experience is great. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for finding out the bug in the blogger..:-) .The idea of the blog is to advocate the idea of stamp collecting as an educational avocation.

As far as your stamp collection is concerned ,please open your storage and check the stamps.The stamps which I brought for 21Rs in 1992 is costing 3000rs today.

Entire idea of this blog is build a knowledge base of Indian Stamps for collectors and those who want to learn more from it.

Thanks for your encouraging words..I also pursue photography..I have bookmarked your blog and will go through it.

Thanks. Maybe I will pull some of the old stamps out of storage. Though I would still have to figure out how to value what I have :)

Do take a look at my blog. Appreciate it.

Hi Debojit,

just saw changes, really great.

Hi Pramod,

Thanks for your feedback..It's pain tweaking the Blogger unlike wordpress where plugins are available..I could it do it  with lots of patience..Most of them gave feedback that site is very narrow.Now site is broader and mobile friendly as well.

Regards,

Kumar

I was not knowing that some one can have blog on Philately yours is a really nice blog. I think with stamps you should also give information about history of the person, place and events on which the stamp is printed. this would be immense help.

Hi Bhavin,

I am extremely sorry for the delay in replying.I liked your comments and I am working in that direction.I have also started improving UI to accomadate more information.I am getting good feedback.Let more feedback come.

Kumar,Indianphilately.blogspot.com

Excellent blog!

Loved the graphics part below the header (may i just ask you how you have done that?). Just culdnt resist clicking on all 4 of them, and going through those assortment of lovely stamps, really very nice!

The stamp collection is eyecatching, old, simple yet so wonderful!

You really have a not only very unique but also a very well kept blog, Good going

One suggestion though--

You could increase the widgth of the main content pane which looks a bit narrow to me. Try utilizing the window space to the maximum.

Rest is great... Keep blogging

Hi Arti,

Thanks for all your suggestions.I will work on it .

For the graphics part I Use GIMP and the newsboard has been picked from Wordpress themes.

My friend who is good in javascript helped me do that.

I am trying to develop my own theme for blogger.

 Keep Blogging

Arti..I have now incorporated the changes you conveyed..now the blog is cinemascope from 35MM :-)..Let me know if you have any more feedbacks.
