    Hello, Katelyn, I'm going to be reviewing your site in Internet Explorer with a screen resolution of 1024px by 600px. :)

    > SITE NAME
    I like the site name. It makes me think of Heaven, actually xD. It's unique, and something I'll wake up tomorrow remembering.

    > LAYOUT
    The colour scheme is nice, and I like how you credited Colour Lovers. :) Good job there. You're not missing a DOCTYPE! Excellent! Quite a few of the sites I've reviewed were missing DOCTYPEs. I see you're using WordPress, my favorite blogging platform. :) You've also done well creating an actual WordPress theme, so no problems there.

    > CONTENT
    >> HOMEPAGE
    Your homepage is very well organized, and I really don't see anything to critique here.
    >> WEBSITE
    This is organized as well, and explains a very clear history about the past of Golden Harmony. This helps the visitor better understand the website, correct?
    >>> DISCLAIMER
    I believe the disclaimer should be put somewhere underneath the "Website" page, because it is very much something someone needs to see before they start wandering around the rest of your website. I think this because it's a blog, and personal opinions and other things will be expressed, so they need to know your disclaimer.
    >>> CREDITS
    Nothing wrong here :). I just like that you're crediting your resources!
    >> OWNER
    You have a very long autobiography, and I like that. It shows that you want people to know you as you are, and aren't afraid to explain this. Great job here :). You seem like an interesting person to me!
    >>> JOINED FANLISTINGS
    Nothing much to say here. Neat and organized.
    >>> THE PROUST QUESTIONNAIRE
    This is an interesint page! I like it, and think I might even do one on my own site.
    >> ARTICLES
    I like your articles, and they're enlightening. I especially like the ones about the uniforms, and if my school ever goes uniform-ish, I'll be sure to read up on them again ;).
    >> CONTACT
    There is a very annoying line right after your last fanlisting link, "I Need A Hero," which I'm guessing was made with multiple ___s or ---s. This can be resolved using a <hr>, which can be customized in your CSS as well.

    Other than that, no problem here. Very well organized.
    >> PHOTOS
    I think you should have a title="words" in your <a href=""> tag, because I didn't know it was going to take me to another site. Maybe have it say the site's name, so they know they're being taken somewhere besides Golden Harmony.

    > ORIGINALITY & CREATIVITY
    I enjoyed reading your current blog post, and also like your article creativity. :) I think you have done a fantastic job with Golden Harmony, and it's very personalized to you, and your own personal likings. I also like that it's a blog, and not a full-on content-offering website. Blogs are the kinds of sites I come back to time and time again. :) They're much more interesting, in my own personal opinion.

    > OVERALL COMMENT
    I have given you 4 1/2 stars because 5 seems a bit biased and sugarcoated, especially since I did find a few little things around. But other than that, your site is a wonderful site I'll be sure to visit tomorrow morning after my sugar kick so I can comment on your blog :).

    The first thing I noticed when I entered your site was the blue background. Honestly, it's not a very nice shade of blue, at least, when it's used that much. It's not very pleasing to the eyes. It may be better if you just used a different color of blue.

    You can do without the header. The font and the brushes don't go together, and they seem to just be put there in random places. The background color of the header is almost the same color as the actual background, but not quite, which is like it's trying to blend into the background without actually blending into the background. It's annoying.

    There were a couple of things about the footer that annoyed me as well. There's something wrong with the border of the box in the footer. It just looks so out of place. It might be better if you just removed the border. Also, the very bottom of the website looks cramped. I understand why you'd need to put those credits, but you can do without the valid HTML and CSS links.

    I scanned through the page about your site, and it looks okay and organized. At the end of it, however, you mentioned that you're currently hosted by Kya even though, in your footer, it says that you're hosted by Georgina.

    In your credits page, it also says that you're hosted by Kya. It looks okay, except you should be more consistent with the spacing around the dashes; some of them are laid out, "word-word", a few others, "word- word" and the rest, "word - word".

    I find your music page unnecessary though, at least, as it's own page. Maybe it can go to a separate page under your "About Me" page. Also, the list there would look better separated into columns instead of being just one long line; the same goes for the "Joined Fanlistings" and "Links" pages.

    I went to your contact page and saw you using [at] instead of @. I've seen a few people doing this, but I don't know if there's a good reason or not, but it just seems strange. Also, I don't see why you would all that information for colleges in your contact page; it is irrelevant, and, if any college would had any intentions to contact you, I'm sure they would, even if you didn't put that there.

    In the reviews page, the only thing that annoyed me was that there were no spaces between the dashes and the things you'll be focusing on in the review.

    The borders used in the form in the "Review Application" page looked strange there, like the one in the footer.

    There were also a few broken links here and there. On your "Website" and "Credit" pages, all the links on the top (Website, Disclaimer and Credits) and the link to the "Review Application Page" at the bottom of the "Reviews" page are pointed to the wrong URL.

    I can tell that you have very good grammar even just from the little I read in reviewing your site. I also really like your layout, except for the things I mentioned, of course.

    First impression:

    I love blogs like this. I don't know why, I just do. It just seems so friendly. I also love your layout. I love that color blue, and I love blue & white together. Your links are very easy to find and I like that.

    I really like that you have reviews on your site. It gives people that own sites a reason to be there, and it makes them want to go there more often. Plus it gives people something to do after they read your entries. Nice.

    Overall, I really like your site. 4 1/2 stars!
