welcome *

I'm sorry for the sudden hiatus, but real life is getting too busy, and I just don't have enough time for this site as of now. I will be back in January with a new layout. NOTE: I will be on a SEMI-HIATUS, so I shall be answering Neomails, but I will not be accepting requests.

Welcome to the review section of Lattice. At this time, I only do proofreading reviews and link checks, but I may expand to all types of reviews soon. If my Neomail inbox is full, please send me a Pile of Dung to remind me to clean it out. Then try sending your request again in a few days.
Please read the rules before you order, and thank you for visiting Lattice!

proofreading and link checks *

You must submit your own on-neo site for reviewing, and your site can't have any stolen content on it.
You may request a review once per month, and if you didn't read the rules, put I'm Latticed somewhere in your request form.
I will review anything, whether it's a site, an application, or an art page. Please link back once you receive conformation that you've been added to the waiting list.
Always check the request status before you request. If you send in a request while requests are closed, you will be asked to reorder when requests are opened. Please only take the button given to you at the end of your review.
Please be patient when you request. It takes me some time to completely check everything, especially if we're checking a directory. I would appreciate if you did not neomail me about when your request will be finished!
I only proofread in English, but I do link checks in any language. Also, please don't make any major changes to your site while you're on the waiting list.

As of now, I only offer proofreading reviews. However, I will point out any obvious mistakes in your layout or formatting, even if it does not fall under your chosen rubric's criteria.
PLATINUM
Site: name here
Owner: name here
Date Reviewed: month/day/year
This review will check all of your site links for any closed or inactive sites. If your site has a way to distinguish inactive sites from active ones, I will only be checking the active sites for inactivity, but I will check every site to see if it's closed.
I will first check your sitely section to check for borders on buttons, and closed or inactive sites. Then I will check all of your other links to see if they're leading to the correct places. Please note that directories will take longer to link check than other sites.

COPPER

This review will check your spelling and grammar. I will check your spelling and punctuation for correctness. I shall also be checking your site's grammar for correctness, fluency, and professionalism. I will provide alternatives if anything is completely incorrect. If you would like me to check only your spelling, your grammar, or your punctuation, please include that in your request.
As I live in America, my English may not be the same as British English. If I have pointed out something that you believe is correct in your country, please disregard it. I hope that you understand, and please Neomail me with any concerns.

Date Reviewed: 11/3/2011
I have checked all of your grammar, spelling, and punctuation, as per your request. Remember, these are just suggestions! Feel free to Neomail me with any comments or concerns. I have omitted several parts because they are either basic or not needed to be changed. If you have trouble finding these parts, or you want clarification, please Neomail me.
Updates:
- You may want to rephrase your update for November 1 to "We're no longer affiliates with Merely Michelle. I'm not sure what happened, but my button was no longer on her site. Maybe she changed her mind about being affiliates? Anyway, it was disappointing, but it's okay. :) Speaking of buttons, We got an amazing new button from Caylee at Whirligig! Check it out in the sitely section. I'm also working on the current requests, so hang in there!
Home:
- The horizontal scrollbar isn't professional, so you should get rid of it somehow.
- On the bottom (beneath the link back button), there is a row of underscores. It doesn't look nice, so you should erase it.
- The main header should read "Welcome
- You may want to rephrase the paragraph to "Please note that the navigational links do not work in Firefox, so please use the links below.
Welcome to Inspirational, a new kind of request site. My name is Jel, and I created Inspirational on August 8th, 2011. At Inspirational, I offer petpage and banner requests that are chosen and inspired by none other than you!" I left the last sentence out because it was awkward. After all, aren't you the one being inspired by the requesters? It sounds like the requesters are the ones being inspired.
Rules:
- Your rules sound a bit aggressive. Below I have rephrased them.
- "Please do not remove my credit or redistribute any of my layouts or coding.
- "If I find you have removed my credit, I will first Neomail you to remind you and later take appropriate action.
- "Please request only one layout at a time. Also, in the form when I say "other", reply with pie and, of course, anything else I must know.
- "I can change your request if the selections you have chosen do not work together or I find something that works better. I will notify you first, of course.
- "I will only take requests for things on Neo that follow TNT's rules.

Petpage Request:
- I would change the paragraph to "This is where the fun starts. Once you fill out the form below and send it to me, I will start working on your petpage! However, please read the rules before requesting. I can't stress that enough! If you would like your page anchored, please list how many anchors you will need and what you would like the anchors to say. Anchors and the second page title is optional. For Neopets images, try here. Please send the image link in your form. For non Neopets images, please describe what image you would like.

Also, please note that I only make name banners; I do not add images or animation. If you have any questions or concerns about the request form, please neomail me. Also, please see my portfolio for examples of my work before you request.

Copper Review
Site: Mo's Fonts
Owner: Mo
Date Reviewed: 11/2/2011
Here is the second part of your review. Feel free to Neomail me with any comments or concerns.
Font Types:
- You may want to rephrase the first paragraph to "Here are the 7 main types of fonts. I will introduce you to them and give you tips on how to create them.
- You may want to change the button link to a text link. It makes the page look more professional.
- You may want to rephrase "The most amazing symbol source" in Symbol Fonts to "The best symbol source
- You may want to rephrase "Sometimes huge block fonts are impressive but when posting with them they can get a bit obnoxious, at least in my opinion.
So I usually use size 1 monospace for mine." in Block Fonts to "Sometimes huge block fonts are impressive, but they can also be a bit obnoxious. I would recommend using size 1 monospace to create this font.
- You may want to rephrase Simple Word Fonts to "Simple word fonts are probably my favorite. They consist of a few words and symbols. They are commonly made with a double underline and a macron ( ¯ ) which can be found on Holly's symbol page. I usually use a heart with these, but you can use any symbol that fits with your word.
- You may want to rephrase Symbol Fonts to "I use symbol fonts for avatars with many colors that do not blend well.
You can use neopets smilies (which I rarely do unless it fits the avatar colors very well), symbol patterns, or random symbols.
For symbol fonts, color is the key to making it look nice.
- On Fade Fonts, pixelly should be one word.
- On Name Fonts, you should take off the first sentence.
- On Lyric Fonts, "that" should not have slashes () around it, and "same-ish" should just be changed to "same".
FAQ:
- I have rephrased most of your answers to the questions below.
- Question 2: "Mistral. I use it often because it is my favorite, and most people request it to be used in their font.
- Question 3: "You may! Personalize it as much as you want. I actually encourage this because I believe this helps you to make your own fonts, and there are not enough fontmakers out there. However, until you make your own font from scratch, you still must credit me.
- Question 4: "You may as long as you do not claim any awards given or take credit for the fonts."
- Question 5: "Neither. A link back is appreciated but not necessary, and credit would look strange in the font unless you made it invisible. However, that is not necessary nor expected from you. All I ask is for you to say that I made it.
- Question 7: "I definitely could, if you fill out the form when requests are open." (NOTE: You have closed requests before more than once, so you should take the last sentence off.)
- Question 8: "Sure, just don't get crazy. Especially, do not request more fonts than your neoboard pens allow you to have.
- Question 12: "I am surprised I actually get this question. I cannot pinpoint my inspiration, but ideas for different fonts just end up popping in my head at random points in the day. I also get inspiration from you guys ~♥, especially when you send in font requests. Sometimes I go through periods where I don't make picture fonts, and when someone requests a picture font, I make some more. Other times I cannot think of quotes, but someone sends in a request with a quote that inspires a different quote. Requests aren't just for the person requesting. For me, they help a lot. (:
- I would take off the last sentence in question 10.
- The link in question 9 is broken.
- There should be a comma after "it" on your answer to question 1.
- There should be a comma after "fast" on your answer to question 11.
- You should change the first "have" in question 5 to "need".
Sites I Love:
- I would take off the sentence "I love a lot of sites, obviously".
- Some sites are inactive here, but since this is a Copper Review, I will not be checking for inactivity or closed sites.
- Since you have written your own opinion about these sites, I will not be proofreading this section. Please Neomail me if you would like me to. Thank you for requesting from Lattice! Please pick up a button below!
