Title | Square Peg In Round Hole
First Impression | Take the html tags off the title... they don't work, and they bother me. Those 2 pictures at the top bother me, too. So much for first impressions. ||1/5||
Template / Layout | I like the simplicity of this layout, but those 2 small images at the top kind of ruin it for me. I have seen layouts similar to this in a few other places, but, eh it's nice enough. Everything looks neat and organized and seems to go well... just move those 2 pictures. They don't look good where they are. 8/10
As for me liking this layout... I do and I don't. I love how neat and organized it appears to be and I like the color scheme. I dislike those pictures, as I stated above. Your links could use some switching around as well, though. I think it would be better if the navigation were at the top above the "about" blurb thingy. Put that at the bottom. It would make navigation easier and your page would look neater. 7/10
TOTAL OF LAYOUT ||15/20||
Contacts | e-mail and guest-book... and I think that's it. ||2/5||
Navigation / Organization | Your diary is pretty easy to navigate through, but in places the links look messy and unorganized. I think the navigation links should be at the top, then links, then the "what do you think" crap, and lastly you should put the about thingy. It would make shit easier to find and the page would look neater. Also, maybe you could do something about how that list of entries looks... maybe make it into more of a list, with bullets and things or, I dunno... do something so it doesn't look so confused. ||7/10||
Errors | Hm. I don't think I can find any. A few spelling and grammar things pop out at me, but no more than are in my own diary...so in my eyes, you rock. ||5/5||
Content | Your entries are interesting, but they didn't keep me interested...if that makes any sense. Well, actually, it's not that they didn't keep me interested, I just had a hard time relating to it all and in turn my mind kept kind of wandering a little. I did read quite a few entries though... and I wasn't disappointed. I liked how you seemed to just throw all of you out there for your readers. You gave details about your life and threw in a bunch of emotion as well. I liked that. It seemed like these were really well rounded entries and I felt like, if only I knew you personally then I would be drawn into your writing more deeply 20/25
You write very well. You sentences are clear and it seems like you are pretty good at conveying your thoughts. Your entries aren't just randomly tossed together... they seem thought out and meaningful, which is a rare find in the online journal world. Nicely done. 19/20
TOTAL CONTENT ||39/45||
Extras | Yeah, you got some. That's good. ::smile:: ||4/5||
Repeat Visits? | I hardly read anyone's diary anymore... so I doubt I'll come back, but maybe I would if I had more time to read things... so I dunno. ||3/5||
Final Score | Wondermous. ||76/100||
Comments | You seem to be a very smart and intelligent woman and it shows in your entries... You seem like the kind of person that I would love to just sit down and talk to and find out all about your life and views and things. I dunno. That's just how it seems... ::smile:: Nice diary, though.
