Rotted
8:40 p.m. - 2005-09-13
Username and Title: Rotted - just breathe - I’m surprised that rotted was available and not taken years ago! Lucky you for bagging that name. I wouldn’t choose it for myself, but from reading just your first entry and the state of mind you were in, it fits. The title is OK, but not exactly mind blowing. Nothing wrong with it though, apart from lack of capital letters. (8/10)
First Impression: I work in 800x600 resolution, like many do. I don’t like changing to anything else but I always check the site I’m reviewing in it to see if it makes any difference. In 800x600 your design looks warped and badly done (even though it isn’t). (1/5)
Template: Apart from the problems I have in my resolution, there are a few other things. I don‘t really like the grey you have used. Perhaps another colour, like white would be better. Maybe if it wasn‘t a solid colour it would look better. You also ruin the simplicity of your layout with a lot of clutter at the end. My advice would be to go back to basics and simplify it as much as you can, because it would look a lot better. I don‘t think the last 5 entries are in the right place; you could do with getting rid of them altogether. I would also advise capitalizing your links. (12/20)
Content: I don‘t know how I feel about your content. You have a lot of daylog, in which doesn‘t interest me as I know none of the people you are referring to. You have a lot of political themes in your diary, some of the classic poetry that everyone has, and a lot of ranting. I don’t think that you really have the sort of diary that should get reviews. Reviewable diaries are like books. Yours is literally a diary; you write what is bothering you and your thoughts. Your grammar is terrible. It makes hard reading because of that. (20/40)
Links: Just tidy them up a bit. (3/5)
Stalkability: Perhaps put them on their own page. (4/5)
Lasting Impression: You left a good one, no major problems. (5/5)
Extras: Nothing out of the ordinary, just the usual. (3/5)
Will I come back? Maybe. (3/5)
Do you have the Dudette factor?(Ungraded) I’m not sure.
