You want the truth?
I'll give you the truth!
To be honest, I never really understood why Review Sites even existed. I always wondered "why the heck do I want someone to tell me the goods and bads of my site? I made it. I should know how great it is!" Then...I opened my dailies site. I started requesting reviews, and I realized that they do matter! So far, I have received some really great advice, and it feels good when I receive compliments. So to those who have reviewed my sites, thank you :)
So without any further adieu, let's get on with the reviews. Shall we?
Rules & Requirements
1. You must fill out the form.2. You must place my button on your page before, during and after the review.
3. No complaining, bashing, hate mail, or using of undeserving rewards will be tolerated. As the page name so clearly states, I am a harsh critic. Accept that before applying.
4. I will only do a re-review if you completely change the look/coding of your page. If you don't like your score, too bad. It's what I feel you deserve.
5. Be patient. I am a student, and also work part-time. I will get around to it. If I plan on taking a break, I will clearly state that in my updates.
6. Not only must you have a button sized either 31x88 or 33x88, but the coded link MUST NOT BE in all capitals. I don't know what browser you use, but those links do not work in any browser I've ever tried them in. I do not like having to retype your code to make it work.
Grading System
Each section is out of 5. I will give detailed feedback for each section, and in the end you will receive "x" amount of stars out of 5. If you receive 4-5 stars, you will also receive an award!First Impression: What did I think about your site when I first stumbled in? Did I want to stay and look around? Or did I want to quickly close the page? Why?
Layout: Is your layout nice to look at? Creative? Do the colors work well together? Is it unique? etc.
Organization: Is your page organized? Or does is it busy and confusing like a mall at Christmas time?
Content/Grammar: Is what you say interesting? Or will I just scroll through it to get to the good stuff? Is it useful? Did you spell check? I do not tolerate ch@t sp3@k or improper use of the english language.
Updates/Credit: Do you keep your audience up-to-date? Or did you create your site and abandon it? Did you give proper credit to those who deserve it? It is very important to give credit to those worthy of it!

Reviews
First Impression: I really liked the look of things. I was curious to know what the site was about.
Layout: I think that the colors look great together. I like the header/title, it has a unique look. The Only thing that truly bothered me was the bottom of the main column. It well...doesn't finish? It looks kind of unprofessional. But on a whole, I like the layout.
Organization: Your links are easily accessible and that it very important. They link to the correct location, and everything is very clear. I like the section titles. The buttons confused me though. I think you should get rid of the number in the background, and maybe just show all three buttons, along with their text box next to each of them.
Content/Grammar: I like your welcome message. it's very personable :) I was very curious to know what your site was about, and I liked how clear you were in explaining it. No spelling/grammar errors is always a plus in my book!
Updates/Credit: You update almost every day! And sometimes...more than once a day! I love it haha I'm the same way! You respectfully gave credit to those who deserve it. Good on you!
All in all: It's a great site! It's a very unique concept and I salut you! Don't forget to pick up your silver reward!
First Impression: This is the first packrat item site I've seen, so I loved the idea. I definitely wish it was around when I was trying for the avi, wouldn't have taken so long XDD
Layout: It's pretty bland. I love the color green, but I think you can do a lot more with it :) Create a more unique background, and header. A site header is very important because it's one of the main things that draw the viewer in. I also suggest that you add a background color to your titles to make them stand out a bit more.
Organization: I don't like that there is no navigation system. It's a pretty long page, so I think links close to the top of the page would be super helpful. Maybe link to each individually pried section. Try adjusting the width of your "Updates" section. i think having both scroll directions makes it look messy. I suggest only having the horizontal bar :)
Content/Grammar: You have a lot of content, that's great! And it's not gibberish just to fill space. It's all really helpful! ^^ And no grammar or spelling mistakes? pft...amazing! ;)
Updates/Credit: You keep your viewers updated almost everyday, that's really good :) And you give all necessary credit to those who deserve it. That's important :)
All in all: I find your site extremely helpful! Although the layout needs some work, the site is unique and helpful to neopians alike
First Impression: It's pretty. I like the layout and a long list of navigation excites me ^^
Layout: I really like the colors and the design. The flowers are soo so pretty. I'm usually not a huge fan of "little" sites, but in this case, it serves it's purpose regardless. Review sites don't need a lot of space.
Organization: I love it. The links are always visible, so it makes for easy navigation. I have nothing to complain about, it's so clean!!
Content/Grammar: You have A LOT of content. Not only do you welcome your guests, and review them, but you even have site name suggestions and things. I think that's a great idea, and it's really helpful! No mistakes. It's so nice reading through a site without having to figure out what they're trying to say XDD
Updates/Credit: Right at the top, where they should be :) And you update everyday. And it's all relevant to the site! As always your credit is extensively respectful. I love that about you ^^
All in all: I love it. It's pretty, organized and helpful!
Go pick up your gold trophy!!
First Impression: I love the color purple. Especially the shade you used! So that caught my attention. The header image is really pretty too, and it states exactly what the site is about GRAPHICS.
Layout: The layout is pretty, and unique. The colors/shades don't clash, which is a plus so it's easy on the eyes ^^
Organization: Full marks for organization! lol updates and navigation are right on top, where they should be. It's very easy to navigate around, and the headings stand out and are descriptive of what they offer.
Content/Grammar: I love that you have a history section. All of the content is relevant to the site, and that's important when you only have 1 page to work with XDD Obviously no grammar and/or spelling mistakes. I'm not neofriends with anyone who uses chat speak ;) lol
Updates/Credit: You keep your viewers updated on a daily basis. This is good because we all know how greedy and impatient neopians can be upon waiting for a request to be completed XD Your credit is unbelievably responsible and kind. I'm sure if you had enough room you'd have a kind comment for every neopian you've ever crossed paths with :)
All in all: Your site looks great, as it should (seeing as it's a graphics page), and if that isn't enough, your great personality which shines through your content and credits would make up for it. Great site.
Go pick up your gold trophy!!
First Impression: It looks fun! Not sure from the header what it's about, but only makes me want to read on!
Layout: I love the colors! And I really like the 2-piece header. It's different :)
Organization: Completely organized. I like the unique link names for each section too! I also like the sub headers for each title, don't see that very often. Although you have many sections, you organize them well. It doesn't look messy or busy at all ^^
Content/Grammar: PACKED with content. I usually don't like sites that have so much going on, because it tends to get messy, but yours is great! It's a super-site! lol Big check mark from grammar!
Updates/Credit: I love the unique name "the pulse". And like always you keep it updated, and give credit to those who deserve it. Great work!
All in all: It's fun, and it's jam packed with goodies!
Go pick up your gold trophy!!
First Impression: I opened it first with chrome, then with opera, then with firefox, and finally IE. I wasn't happy about that. Not many people use IE anymore...you should get it working in more than 1 browser :) Usually when sites say "works "best in a browser, they don't mean "only works" in that browser ^^
Layout: Other than it not working in anything but IE, the layout is well...funky lol I don't like the background, it's distracting. I do however like the birdies at the top ^^ And I really like the div separators! So pretty and classy!
Organization: It's pretty organized :) I don't like that there's no navigation section. I know there's one for the artists, but I like using full site nav :) it's easier. But with or without links, it's still very organized and doesn't look messy at all ^^
Content/Grammar: Your site has a lot of content, but you manage to keep it neat. I like that. You don't fill it with gibberish, or nonsense, it's all related to music, so it's good. You also have no grammar mistakes...YAY!
Updates/Credit: I like that you keep your viewers updated, that's important. And your credit section is very in depth. That's great because it means you're responsibly crediting those who deserve it :)
All in all: Your site is great :) There aren't many music sites out there, so I think it's very helpful :)
Go pick up your silver trophy!!
First Impression: I like it. It's adorable, easy on the eyes, and very clean.
Layout: It looks GREAT on a small screen. I have a massive screen, so it looks kinda funny full screen because it just ends lol but I really like it nonetheless :) I like the purple, I like the design, I like the setup. It's unique, and shows what you can do!
Organization: SOOOOOOOO CLEAN!!! ^^ It's so easy to navigate around! Everything is easily accessible. I absolutely love it.
Content/Grammar: I like your welcome message :) It's warm, and explains exactly what your site has to offer. Your graphics are great :) They have a unique style that sets you apart. Your grammar is Perfecto!
Updates/Credit: You have an entire section dedicated to those who deserve credit :) I respect that!
All in all: I really like your site :) It's clean, functional, and classy ^^

Content/Grammar: You have a lot of content. Usually, that can make things a bit messy. But you keep everything really clean, so it works. You talk to your audience and that's important :) Your grammar is spot on ;) No problems there! ^^
