Title | Vodka Never Hurt Anyone
First Impression | Hmmm. At first when I looked at the image on this, I disliked it... a lot. But as I sat here and stared at it, it started to grow on me and I don't *hate* it... well not yet. ||2/5||
Template / Layout | This is a decent layout. It's original to say the least. The image bothers me on some level that I can't comprehend though. I dunno. It has that simplistic look that I'm liking right now and it looks organized. One issue I have with it, though, is the color of the links. They seem to disappear in certain places on the image, which made this difficult to read at times. 8/10
As far as how much I like this... I kind of don't. I'm not sure why, though. The image bothers me... but again, I am unsure as to why. Maybe it's just the mood I'm in, so I'll give ya the benefit of the doubt... I am diggin' the fact that it's self-designed, though. Definite plus. 8/10
TOTAL OF LAYOUT ||16/20||
Contacts | Hm. E-mail, AIM, MSN, and Yahoo messenger/email thingys. Why do you not have your notes linked? It'd be so simple. Yeah. ||4/5||
Navigation / Organization | Seemingly simplistic. All along the left hand side starting at the top and making our way down... yeah. As far as organization goes, it all looks neat and organized, but the fact that your archives don't match the main layout kinda makes things seem a little less thought-filled, errr- um. Or something. ||8/10||
Errors | A few spelling and grammar errors. Decent enough, though. ||4/5||
Content | Hm. The question that keeps repeating in my mind is this: what made me want to keep reading this diary? Nothing really sticks out as something that grabbed me and drew me in... but hell, there must've been something because I read a good deal of these entries. You tend to talk to your friends in your diary too much, though, which kinda got irksome after a while, but I loved reading the entries where you vented and got pissy and stated your opinions and seemed just genuinely pissed off and irked. I dunno. Maybe I just like the emotion and thought that it seemed was poured in to those entries. ((like the Christmas / Jesus is the Reason entry written in response to your friend Whitney.)) Somehow your diary kept me interested and reading, even though it's not something I would normally enjoy. Though I probably won't be back, it's still pretty cool if ya ask me. 20/25
Anyhow. As far as your writing capabilities go, you seem to be about normal for diaryland. You write with emotion and you get your point across, but at times I was left feeling a little confused. You are a decent writer and your diary seems like it serves it purpose just fine. 15/20
TOTAL CONTENT ||35/45||
Extras | There are a few... None that really kept my interest, though. ||4/5||
Repeat Visits? | Doubt it. ||2/5||
Final Score | Decent. ||75/100||
Comments | I'm sorry your review took so long to complete... and I just want to say that while I was reviewing you diary I wasn't in the best mood, which is seeming a bit unfair when I think about it. If you don't like this review, just come on back to flirt and Tink can give ya one... Yeah. Easy peasyness. But, I do apologize for my bitchy attitude in this review ((if it shows)) and for my un-promptness. Yeah.
