Main Page Naked Reviews Reviewer: Christine Score: 86.5% Notes: Thanks Christine for a good review and wonderful comments and suggestions. Some things I figured I'd get dinged on, and I was fixing the archive typo at about the same time you were posting the review. Some other things I hadn't done 'cause I didn't know how I wanted to do them. Read it Diary God/dess Score: 40.5/50 Notes: Heh, I barely made it on their page. If I would have lost one more point, I would have been told "Sorry, your diary sucks." But anyway. To answer one question that was asked within the review: "It seems also you have a large part of your diary (or pages of it) scattered over the net on different servers, which makes things a bit confusing when navigating around: why not use the handy add-entry facility and keep things all nice and organized at diaryland?" Because with over 150 entries already, with more to come, it would take me forever to find those entries when I needed to update them. If I have them all on my server, then I can find them quick and easy, and update them all at once if I want. And that's the other thing, they aren't scattered all over the net. They're all in the little subdirectory of my domain. But yeah. Other people have sorta wondered that I think, but this is the first time it's been asked. So I figured I'd answer it. Read it Diary Reviews Reviewer: Brandi Score: 88/100 Notes: Yay . . . another score that's fairly good. I'm probably not going to change much this time. I'm thinking about making an "about" page though, possibly to explain the what and why's of the diary. About the images though . . . I think that if I put the names all on one line that it would either: 1. Take up too much room on the side or... 2. Be too small to read easily. And then there's the animated rose at the top. When I optimized the file, it combined a few frames and did the overlap thing. So, I went in and deleted the frames it squished together. Then I saved it, and it optimized it . . . and it squished them again. So . . . until I figure it out (I'm too sleepy right now) . . . it's staying that way. Read it Rude Reviews Grade: Coming Soon Heaven's Reviews Reviewer: Kay Score: 88/100 Notes: So far I'm averaging 88.625 % on these reviews, which isn't too bad. I disagree with a few things on this one, but that's to be expected. I personally don't like imoods at the top of an entry as they distract from the entries themselves if you read a lot in a row. It might be a little better if the imood wasn't always the current mood. Like, if I had it saying depressed for that particular entry, but the current mood was "fiesty," that the imood for the entry would say "depressed" instead of "fiesty." Or something. I do love that she read my reasons page though. And, I still haven't figured out how to make my animated rose image not overlap. Maybe another day. As far as navigation goes, the March archives are there. The image that says "older months past" is an image map. I figured it'd be less cluttered than making an "older months" link and a "months past" link. Read it Report Card Grade: B (92/100) Notes: My highest score yet I suppose, and I got dinged on the same stuff, so I did finally choose a lighter blue for my text. Part of the trouble before was that the blue I had doesn't really look too dark on my screen, and it didn't look overly dark on the only other computer I looked at it on either. But, everyone's computers are different. All the settings are different. But, yeah. The other problem was that when I signed up for a review from Rogue Reviews, I asked for option three (which basically means that three reviewers review my diary and that they average the score and such). I didn't want to change anything since my review is already one thirds the way done. But, I did it anyway. Read it Star-Review Reviewer: Kandice Score: 95/100 Notes: For once I didn't lose points for updates. And this is the first time that someone commented on something being too light in my diary design, it's usually that something's too dark. But there is a first for everything. Read it Rogue Reviews Reviewer: Rogue Marine Score: 90/100 Notes: Yay me. Okay, this review was done a little differently than I had originally asked for it to be done, but that's only because I'm now reviewing for them. There was a bit of a misunderstanding about the style of my writing, but that was no biggie. He just thought that the dividers separated different entries in a weblog style diary. And again, I didn't lose any update points. I think the comment about the look my design has is a perfect match for me. Some people say that the design should match the diarist, and the "dark, almost-goth" is me. I wouldn't really describe myself as gothic, but I would describe myself as almost gothic. Or as I usually say, "I have gothic tendencies." Read it My-Reviews Score: 86 Notes: After a while, there's only so much you can say about reviews. She does fairly well in saying exactly what she thinks which is a very good thing for reviewing. In my opinion, she'll tell you what she thinks, but she won't be cruel like some can tend to be.
