Default/Dark: Makes me think of a "hacker" blog; a lot of the ones I've been to have that kind of theme, perhaps because it reminds them of terminal windows?
Light: The blue background is a bit wishy-washy -- it's not pale enough to be unintrusive, but it's not dark enough to seem professional/formal.
White: Facebook. This is completely facebook.
- anujkk 16y agoYeah. Inspired by facebook. Is it something bad to do?
- atgm 16y agoIt seems like it was less inspired and more directly copied. That color scheme is 100% synonymous with Facebook for me right now, and it looks like you're using the exact same colors, too.
- anujkk 16y agoYeah. The blue used at top is same but the fonts and text colors and menus are different.
- proexploit 16y agoI don't think there's any issue withing using the same blue. It makes me think Facebook as well which isn't terrible, but probably not the first though you want someone thinking when they visit your site (It doesn't look like you do much work with Facebook). Try a darker blue or a different style to the header bar (rounded corners, slight gradient, etc).
- anujkk 16y agoActually, my another startup project is a web application that integrates deeply with facebook and will have an interface similar to facebook to provide consistent user experience. So, I thought it will be nice if my personal site also looks similar. Anyway, I will experiment with other shades of blue but I think I should settle with black. It is more appealing to my target audience.
