Unrequested review of fallen-rose.com

Reviewed: Kayla Site URL: fallen-rose.com 10 seconds.. 25 seconds.. 40 seconds.. 1 minute 20 seconds.. For crying out loud! I’ve been on your website almost two minutes now and your top image hasn’t loaded. I’d keep counting but I’ve forgot where I got to. And your top image is STILL loading, even after typing this. […]

Some New Links

This PHP classes stuff is easier than it looks. I remember when I first started PHP I never thought I’d get the hang of functions, and now I consider myself an expert. Hah. ;D Functions + classes makes for a happy Jem. Anyway, just plugging some cool links I’ve discovered recently… Awesome free icons at […]

PHP Classes

To celebrate the success of writing my very own, first ever PHP class I’ve been re-writing the backend of the site. It probably means nothing to you guys, but basically means things should be a bit quicker, a little more “optimised”. I’ve also decided to rejig how the site is laid out too — things […]

Apology, Thanks and RY Decisions

First off, I’d like to apologise to anyone who I snapped at, made feel uncomfortable, or just generally didn’t watch what I was typing thus unintentionally upset yesterday. It was the 6th anniversary of Ian’s death and, whilst I was generally fine and cheerful in the morning, a few things at home set me off […]

Looking for Shit Websites

I’m out of material to do a few of my famous unrequested reviews on, so if you know of any shit websites, do feel free to let me know. Either add the URL in a comment or e-mail me. Preferrably shit reviewing/tutorial websites — they seem to be the most fun to do. I think […]

Pointless Update

For those of you who don’t usually check my other sites.. there’s several new tutorials at tutorialtastic.co.uk and a new review at Review-You. And no, I’ve still not decided what to do with RY.

Review of band-o.org

Reviewed: Kathleen Site URL: band-o.org I seem to be reviewing the skin “RockyBliss”. My first impression involves the word “cack” so I’m not sure if I should continue. The background colour, while obviously selected from the top photograph, is tediously plain and doesn’t compliment your layout like it should. A pattern, or anything to break […]

My Life, On a Bookshelf

I was in the bedroom thinking again last night (anyone spot a trend here?) and came to the conclusion that my bookcase, the one that Karl went out and bought in August, perfectly represents my life. How sad is that, eh? My life can be ‘explained’ within three shelves. First, there’s the bottom shelf: There’s […]

Review-You Probably Closing

I was thinking about Review-You last night whilst tidying up in the bedroom (completely irrelevant, I know) and have come to the conclusion that it is probably best if I close the website when the domain name expires. Don’t get me wrong, I love reviewing, love owning the site and love the fact that people […]

tutorialtastic is live!

Finally, tutorialtastic is live. After some minor issues with a some .htaccess magic, and a moment of last minute panic where I realised I needed to use “../” before internal links in all of my tutorials; I have it up! There’s still some links which’ll be broken until I fix them, some tutorials that didn’t […]
