Hey there everyone. This is my free graphics site that offers a little bit of a lot. Please excuse the coding errors. I'm still learning php, but the site should work in most browsers. I'm also making a new layout so expect that up some time soon.

    Cool layout. I really like the design and colors.

    Perhaps you could consider changing the cellspacing of your blog box from zero. Right now, the words are right up against the edge of the box, and if they were spaced out a little more, it could be more visually appealing to the eye. If you need help doing this, I could gladly assist. Just let me know. Other than that, this is one of the cleanness, most appealing layouts I've reviewed in a while.

    Your site is very organized. Bravo!

    I love the hover-over effect on your links, specifically the red boxes on your navigation.

    You have a lot of great content in the graphics section. I love the avatars, and the signatures, specifically. Once again, everything is organized very well.

    I really love the wallpapers. The pop of the red color looks awesome, and coincidentally or not, goes very well with your current layout.

    I'd like to see a little bit more of an "about" section to your site. I know you have that little blurb at the top, but a little bit more about you would be much appreciated, and rather interesting. ;)

    Okay, there's not much more to comment on. Great job and nice work!

    Ello K.O, here's this review i promised you years ago.
    To make up for the wait i'll make sure to make it thick and meaningful as possible.

    As you know, I'm Christine and will be using/testing your site in Google Chrome/Safari & Mozilla Firefox with a res. of 1280x800.

    First Impression:
    Your site looks very organized! Compared to previous versions of your site (that had links here and there) this one is most organized. (maybe you should do something like this in upcoming designs?)

    Site Name:
    I like how its K.O designs. Not perky not cute, but formable. When i think of this(your site name) i think of how awesome that your designs are that they are meant to knock me out cold with awesomeness.

    Current Layout:
    This layout you said is deemed to you as a "holiday". Although the colours don't really show that point, the flowers and plaid surroundings make me think of warmth which is all you think about in winter. It's also nice how its not specifically centered on Christmas time of the holidays. Because we all know that some people don't celebrate it, and its always nice to make your visitors feel comfortable.

    One thing that sort of bugs me is this which is found below the content section: http://thekodesigns.net/footer2.png . it would have been better if the gray background was shaped around the white swirly thing a bit more.

    On the bottom the boxes aren't all the same width. Maybe a set width would've made it better.

    Also with your 'affie' buttons it would have been nice if you put a little abbreviation of their name or site instead of 'Affie' for a more settled approach to that.

    Grammar:
    To me your grammar/spelling seems like your in a rush! To make your site more professional try proofreading something before you publish for the understanding of your viewers. Below are some suggestions on how i would fix those

    ' for all your needs' should be [to suit your needs ]

    'Here we offer
    website layouts, gaia layouts, and myspace layouts for you to use. We have wallpapers for your desktop. We also offer avatars, and signatures for your forum usage. Resources are also offered here. We have Scans, PNGs, and textures all for you to use.' should be [Here the staff here offers to you numerous already made designs for you to use on numerous places/websites, wallpapers for your desktop, avatars and signatures for forums, and resources like scans, PNGs, and textures.]

    'spread the word.' should be [spread the word of our site.]

    'EVERYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH INFORMATION ON THE SITE' should be ['Everything that has to do with this site]

    'This is where I got all of the resources used on this site.' should be [This is a list of all the resources we used on this site]

    'skills complete each other' should be [skills compliment each other]

    those are just a few i felt uncomfortable with. but don;t worry theres not a lot more.

    Site:
    I will only display comments on areas of concern~
    --Awards This should be Awards/Gifts and should be separated in two different 'containers'. it would be better to either resize them so they are all one size or link to them since displaying them whole is kind of messy. Also a few of these are not linked to whomever gave them to you. Since your site has multiple Owners you should say 'Awards K.O won' just so people know 'i' is.

    --Terms of Use Instead of putting the punishment of breaking the rules on another header tag you should either put it a/on bolded text or something that doesn't stick out as much to keep from confusion.
    /Or put a tag to divide through the sections further-wise.

    Graphics:
    --Avatars I think these could use some work. I myself, do not like icons that are repeated and/or repeated because of a little change. Also i recommend that you not bombarde the icon with text or sections of their face missing/covered/cut off. When i design, i always make sure the thing i'm 'designing' is in clear view and is complimented nicely ^^ You do that with your other graphics, but clearly not your icons.

    --bases The Jrock set should show previews of the icon bases like the other two sets.

    --PNGS I must say, your the most talented extractor i've ever seen! I also notice that some PNGs contain nudity (of the sorts, but not only in the PNGs section). Somewhere (mayabe the about page, etc.) you should put that some 'designs' resources etc. contain nudity or echii. I don't mind it myself but for the younger viewers, you should have that warning set.

    Designs:
    --Designs The title of this should be 'Website Layouts' instead of designs since you have different types of 'Designs' .

    Collective
    The title of this should've been 'network] since you have a seperate site that is your Collective.'

    Pro's of your Site
    Your a great designer that i've also looked up to. At this point you have understand better that your graphics should be of high quality and that they been shown and demonstrated as quickly and as greatly as possible. Keep it up!

    Con's of your Site
    There some Origination efforts out there that aren't being shown on your site. Try explore the concept of 'web design' more to achieve that great professional feel.

    Browser Compatibility
    Looks the same in all browsers (:

    Hi Christy! New site eh? I'll enjoy checking it out. ;) I'm viewing your site in Firefox.

    Layout
    I like the color scheme, not a lot of red and gray layouts around. The two different patterns is a bit tough on the eyes, but I do like both of them. I would try changing the opacity of the images so they aren't so sharp. Also, the black border you have on each side of the main content section is very bold, I would suggest another color. (Maybe burgundy to match your color scheme?) The fonts you used are wonderful, especially for the site name, very attractive! On my screen, however, the welcome messages ("Welcome to my site K.O...") is a bit far up, so try moving it down like maybe 5px or something. The navigation is nice, I like hover color. And of course, your Fanupdate looks marvelous. The only suggestion I would make is to put some padding on so the text isn't right next to the edge of the gray. (I hope that makes sense XP) I like your little section for affiliates/credits/etc. at the bottom, very organized.

    Site
    On your layout it reads "Site" by on this page the header reads "Sitely", maybe try to be consistent? I'm not crazy about the links having a background color, I would get rid of it. I like how you have explanations of each thing, very nice. I would again recommend some padding.
    About - Straightforward. Nice page, it's cool that you have little sections for each of the staff.
    Awards - I'm not a fan of awards pages, but if you have it on your site, I'd recommend resizing them all so they look nice and neat.
    Contact - Another straightforward page. Nice and neat.
    Terms Of Use - I believe "edite" should be "edit". I would combine all the punishments since they seem repetitive.
    Links - I would call this "Link Exchanges" since that's what the page actually is. I would prefer bulleted lists or perhaps images, but what you have is fine.
    About - Another "About" link? Change this to "Credits".

    Graphics
    Avatars - Wow! These are so neat! I love this page. ^^ Nice job on everything.
    Bases - I might call this page "Icon Bases" instead of just "Bases" just to be more specific. These are very good, too. The second one (JRock Bases) have no images on the preview, was this intentional...?
    Signatures - Another great page. It's nice that you have thumbnails since signatures are pretty big. Good job!
    PNGs - Wow, a wide selection, great job! It would be cool to add what character and series each image came from.
    Scans - Another cool page, very nice.
    Vectors - I enjoy this page, but I think a wider selection would make it better. Keep up the good work!
    Textures - Very cute, though the black background of the previews is a bit strong, try another color or make them similar to your other previews.

    Designs
    Designs - Wow! These are so beautiful! (I wish I were that talented!) Those are all great, and so much fun to browse through. Awesome job!
    Wallpapers - These are cool, and I like that you have them in different sizes, good job!
    Gaia Layouts - Oooh, I love the Eureka 7 layout best. All of those are great, though.
    Myspace Layouts - Neat stuff, I like the Hatsune Miku one.

    Collective
    Collective - This seems to go with your "About Me" section better, so I would recommend moving it there.
    Tagboard - You should change the colors to match the site's current layout.
    Music - Pretty neat, gives the viewer a sense of your music taste, but I don't think most people would use it.
    Twitter - Straightforward page as well.

    Overall
    This is truly a great site. Your layouts are probably the best your site offers along with a bunch of other graphics. Keep up the fantastic work, I love browsing through your site. :D
