Hey, I'm Bridgette. I'll be reviewing your lovely site today using Google Chrome.
First Impressions? Nice layout.:) Simple, neat, and I like the colors used. The only bad thing is the layout is not centered, but looks as if you might want it to be.. Also... 01? Not sure where that came from.
>Owner: Hehe, I like house too :) This section is nice. It provides a picture as well as some basic information and a paragraph about you. I like the smilies :D I use smilies too, they're fun.
>Tutorials: Ugh, basic html tutorials. They're every where, and from what I can tell pretty pointless. But, I guess some people could just be starting out and need to know that.. :/ Its great that you have a request form! In the STOP! Rules thing, the first sentence doesn't make much sense. Ending with majorly...(which isn't even a word apparently)? I don't get it.. Maybe you should change that to make more sense and be a
little more professional.
>Content: Looooots of content, yay! I'm NOT going to sit here and go through all your content.. But here's some stuff I noticed. The Articles.. are what real people would actually say. Not too professional and uptight. I like that :) On the Website Lyts, because of the cursor you used, the linking is messed up. Go there and hover over a link, it will be way above where the mouse really is.. It's quite annoying xb Emoticons- I like these! You should definitely add more. Love how the colorful faces have different heights.
>Extras: Everything here seems to fit under the Extras category. Hmm.. I read the rules and all but, I still don't see the point of re-posting all the questions. If the form did not work, the person should be able to re-type the questions from the form. Also, When you ask if you read the rules 100% It is kind of a pointless questions, because someone could just put yes without you really knowing. On your reviews, I would suggest putting a screen shot and a link to the site, not just to the review. Articles... they were already in the content section, pick one!
>Hosting: Errg, put the exact amount of space you will be giving the person. People may want or need to know that, before applying.
So much more..
Hmm.. maybe you should list everything. Not just say there is other stuff. At the end of the rules, you put "And lastly, have lots of fun with it!" Yet, after that you list three other rules in CAPS. Maybe just move the lastly to last. Maybe I just skimmed through it too fast and missed something, but again at the end you asked if someone read the rules, but did not try anything tricky. I get it, try and trust people, right? But.. some people may just say yes without reading the rules.
>Site: Never seen the whole toolbar thing, and i'm still not sure what it is for.
-History: Couple grammar errors.. Just some sentences that sound a bit off, or are missing a comma. But, I'm not too big on grammar myself, so I won't bore you. But here's once sentence..
I had started a Myspace site and had it (still have it) for a very long time.
It sounds.. odd. Maybe try: I had started a Myspace site and have had it for a very long time.
-Past Layouts: These are nice, and so is the fact you can enlarge the image. The Created By: is not necessary, since of course it is you. Also, you could put a little something under it about what you did/didn't like about that particular layout.
Everything else is pretty basic, nothing to say. But, the music you listen to doesn't really fit under the 'Site' category. I would put that in your owner section.
Overall, I like your site. Not amazing, but hey, I'm definitely not either.:) You have a lot of content, which is great. Try cleaning up your site a little, and centering you layout :)!
