Reviews of my Site

11.22.02 - Reviewed by: Diary Reviews

Vicky's Opinion:
Type of Site: Mainly templates, customs when they feel like it.
Colors: Pretty colors! Lots of pretty colors! I like! (2/2)
Graphics: Man, all they've got is graphics! We're talking less than 10% imageless. The quality is good for them, but, come come now. You have to host them. (1.5/2)
Navigation and ease of site: Everything is easy, along the sides. The code is in a text box for you, and distinguished by resolution. You can't see the design full-sized before you implement it, and that's kind of evil, but, meh. It's good. (1.5/2)
Variety of designs: Thirty templates, three customs. As I said, less than 10% are imageless, so that's kind of annoying. There are a lot of Jackass ones, but generally the templates go all over and back. (1.5/2)
Features of designs: Colored scrolls. S'all. (.25/1)
Cost: Least amount of sexual favors of any others I've seen! Yeah, that's zero. I believe the word is "free". (.5/.5)
Extras: Help is offered, and credit is given. Woot-woot. (.5/.5)

Total Points: 7.75/10
Recommended Design: So... colorful...


Sue's Opinion:
Type of Site: Free templates. Custom "gift" templates for those she thinks deserves it. Colors: A wide variety of colors (although the design site itself is in shades of gray). Very good color combinations. (2/2)
Graphics: Many of the graphics were not clear (blurry or too sharp with too much graininess) when you view them full size (Eustace and Courage, Powerpuff Girls, Butterfly, Simpsons). Find better quality images. They kind of have a cute campiness to them when you view the thumbnails, though (Simpsons, old school Superman, a number of Jackass designs, as well as other popular things). She doesn't host, though. Maybe getting paid to do customs could let her afford a better hosting package. (.5/2)
Navigation and ease of site: Fairly easy. She's change how you can view larger images of the design before uploading the codes, which are available for you to copy right on the site. (2/2)
Variety of designs: Quite a few designs, must lots of them are modifications of each other with different graphics and colors. Something like 30 designs with images and 2 imageless. If you like pop art styles, check her out. (1.5/2)
Features of designs: Mostly colored scrolls and clean, simple CSS. Said there were other features, but not in any I saw (I wasn't about to go and look at all 30-some-odd designs, sorry, but I'll take your word for it). (.5/1)
Cost: Can't go wrong with FREE. (.5/.5)
Extras: Help and fairly detailed instructions on how to get your designs up. Giving credit where credit is due is a big plus. As a designer and artist, I can appreciate that. (.5/.5)

Nick's Opinion:
Type of Site: Mainly templates, occasional custom.
Colors: Lots of colors, usually templates have like a color consistency too. (2/2)
Graphics: I like the pretty graphics, there's verity there and it all looks quite professional. (1.5/2)
Navigation and ease of site: For some reason the site was particularly hard to navigate for me. New boxes popped up, all i saw was the news at first. It just seemed erh confusing! (.5/2)
Variety of designs: Not many image-less templates, shame though because "rainbow" is a lovely design. (1.5/2)
Features of designs: Colored scrolls there. (.25/1)
Cost: free (.5/.5)
Extras: Gives credit, and offers help on the terms of use page. (.5/.5)
