Internet-y Stuff

Thank you for the compliments on the slightly edited version of the layout. There’s a few bugs I need to fix (as you can see, I changed the font) but I’m waiting for my ‘owed’ reviews first so I can do everything at once and not miss anything. If you get bored, feel free to […]

Review of tehsheriff.org

Reviewed: Sydney Site URL: tehsheriff.org Ouch. An automatic redirect. I’d not noticed that before but due to a drop of lag I saw the holding page for a few seconds — not good. If you’re using a <meta /> redirect — don’t. These can badly affect your search engine ranking because they’re commonly used by […]

Shitty shit shit

So, this week has not been the best so far this year. I got shipped from Computer Services to the Web Design office so I could do some designing (instead of the usual developing) which is all fine and funky, but I’m so used to designing for my own specifications I end up braindead and […]

Review of not-noticeably.net

Reviewed: Amelie Site URL: not-noticeably.net (Skin: haven) I see blue, more blue, lots more blue and wait, what’s this? Ooh, pink. Not sure in what way these two colours are supposed to tie together but it’s variation which, at this point is good,. I had to wait a while for your image to load though […]

Unrequested review of never-silent.net/reviews

Reviewed: Terri Site URL: never-silent.net/reviews Right. So someone who thinks they’re capable of judging other people’s skills has a pointless splash page, is telling ME what *I* need to use despite the fact that YOU’RE supposed to cater for my needs, and has a link with no decoration in the same colour as text and […]

Review of sonata.sacred-scars.org

Reviewed: Irene Site URL: sonata.sacred-scars.org Quickly just want to add an apology for not getting your review done sooner. I’ve recently started a full time job and had to put things on hold while I got sorted out. I greatly appreciate your patience and the fact that you didn’t change your layout mid-review. First things […]

Thief, Bully and a Liar

So not only is Krissy of acidgloss.net/krissy.nu a thief (see google cache of her skins page where she claims it took two hours to create a vector, then the archive of her blog entry where she was caught and had to give credit), and a beggar (anyone who’s ever been a part of her listing […]

Review of fluffyland.com (2)

Reviewed: Sam Site URL: fluffyland.com I was quite excited about seeing your new layout because you have a tendency to produce cute, colourful setups which are pleasant on the eyes and easy to use. I was somewhat disappointed to find a bland, somewhat amateur-ish layout with a lack of structure or colour. What went wrong? […]

Review of reviews.frozen-rain.net

Reviewed: Sanosuke Site URL: reviews.frozen-rain.net I refer to “you” many times in this review where on occasions it may apply to another staff member, don’t take things that don’t apply to you personally. I would recommend letting all of your staff members read this review. If there’s one thing more irritating than a pointless splash […]

Review of s-memories.net

Reviewed: Raissa Site URL: s-memories.net First impression was something along the lines of “my, what a lot of blue”. Anyone who has visited my many and various sites over the years will tell you that I’m a big fan of blue and that if CSR had a scoring system, I’d probably give bonus points for […]
