Friday, September 9th || Last Update 8:23 NST
- We're finishing up the last of our orders! You'll have to forgive us... school has started which means that most of the employees have been elsewhere. No problem though! It's the weekend!! We finished one order today and the last will be finished no later than tomorrow. Although requests have closed, we are still working very hard to fix up the site as much as we can! Be on the look out for a new layout, new organization and a revised and no-longer-under-construction Extras page! ^^

Thank you so very much for your patience and cooperation. We know that our delays have been horrid and we feel terribly guilty that we've made our customers wait (sometimes for a week)! That will all change once the school year gets in it's rhythm and we have enough time to balance everything out!

A thousand thank yous to our customers, with a side of 2 thousand apologizes! We'll be better than ever, just you wait and see!

First Impression: ~/15
When customers log onto your site, how does it present itself? Is it impressive or disgusting?

Layout: ~/25
Is it a premade? Did you make it yourself? Does it fit AT ALL with your theme? Keep in mind neatness and organization when choosing or making a layout.

Content: ~/30
What do you provide in your site? Is it something that is high or low quality? Do you think the information or product you provide will satisfy your visitors?

Is your site easy to navigate through? Having mazes and mazes of links and an uncontrollable amount of text, can be somewhat inappropriate and distracting from the general purpose of your site.

Grammar & Spelling: ~/5
Are there just a few common mistakes on your site? Or are there loads of spelling mistakes? Remember, no chat speak. And there is a limit of smiley's per site... no more than 4.

Originality: ~/5
Is the idea entirely your own? What makes your site unique and appealing to visitors? Have you taken ideas from sites without giving any credit?

Dear Interl,
For better reading, your order has been separated into parts.

First Impression & Layout:

The above images are a before and after of your layout. Image one is taken from when first entering. Although the top of the site layout is nicely spaced away from the top of the overall browser screen, the bottom "interl" is cut off. The second image is taken when moving to a different page. Although now the "interl" is nicely spaced away from the bottom of the browser screen, the top now is not. The cause is unknown, but should be fixed- since it's such an inconvenience. However, the fact that you've added the signature Disney font to your site title and the original sketch, adds a wonderful touch to any first impression and the layout itself. Although, the title isn't very noticeable when placed on the bottom instead of the top, but in this case, it's nicely placed.

Moving on the page itself, the updates are placed at the very top, over your welcoming introduction- which is very quite, unique and fun by the way. Since updates aren't the MAIN focus of your home page, you might want to position them underneath your introduction instead of on top- or in a completely separate box (which requires alterations to the layout design).

Content

It is easily seen here that your site is mostly known for it's animations! You have a numerous amount of them, all of which look as though they took a long time to create. However, the rest of the content you provide is lacking. You have 252 animations and when combined, you have a total of 60 other graphics (That's a difference of 192!). At most, you may want to try adding more shields and petpages. However, the current "other" graphics you provide do show effort, and look as though they took just as long as some of your animations. Keep up the good work, though! Effort and uniqueness truly show in your graphics!

Also, under Extras, you may want to add a tutorial section, just in case any passerby want to know how you make your animations, layouts, etc.

Sitely

Your sitely section is very organized, yet seems to go on forever. Instead of breaking each and every button, you could add the buttons side by side but with a title. Here's an example:

Hover over buttons to reveal title:


Here is the code used:

tite=

Add the above code to your link tag, and it should work. So by doing this, your sitely section can still remain organized and neat, but shortened- no longer bottomless.

Fortune Cookie

The order is small, yes. But key areas and issues were pointed out here, in your letter. The graphics that Magic of Disney provides are stunning, however more need to be provided! Advertise yourself on the Neoboards for more requests, and work more on your other graphics than your animations....

Keep up the good work! Your site has wonderful potential, and judging by the amount of visitors, it's well known! Good luck!

First Impression: 13/15
When entering your site, emotions toward the first impression aren't amazingly good, nor horribly bad. Feelings actually set right in the middle. The color scheme includes a nice combination of warm colors that compliment each other and the layout well. However, there is an unwanted down-scroll. Something on your site is longer than it needs to be, which causes the page to form a down-scroll. The cause is unknown by just looking at it, but shouldn't be hard to fix!
Also, your text class is too wide for the layout, and overlays a part of your layout border. Shortening the width just a bit should do the trick.

1 point deducted for unwanted down-scroll and 1 point deducted for overlaying text class.

Layout: 20/25
When you order a premade from Bedazzled, it's bound to impress. Her layouts are unique and of high-quality; a valued attribute to a site. However, with this specific layout, the design was a tad bit disappointing. Something about the image itself looked "off". The banner was disproportional with the rest of what was designed- either the banner was to small in height, or the text box underneath was too large. Whatever it was, the layouts proportions weren't spot on, which could probably be a reason why it looks "off", as mentioned before.

However, the color scheme (as mentioned previously) was chosen well; a nice combination of warm colors that aren't too bold or strong, that one may find it hard to look at. It seems to fit all of the current content that you have well and works nicely around your different font images.

5 points deducted for poor layout proportions

Content: 30/30
Wow. It is obviously shown that you spend numerous amounts of effort in making each one of your fonts! Not only are they creative, but they look unique and of absolute high-quality! For one, your picture fonts are VERY impressive. Each one shows time, effort and creativity; something that's hard to find in most font sites. You have an endless amount of "word" fonts, all of which have the same qualities as your picture fonts: unique, creative, high-quality... the list could go on.

An overall impressive job with the content you have! Keep up the good work!

Organization: 10/10
The way your site is organized is perfect; meaning no constant surfing, confusion or horrid issues were found or experienced while touring your site. Each page, although has a lot of content, is nicely neat, despite the never ending fonts!

Grammar & Spelling: 5/5
No horribly noticeable problems found here.

Originality: 5/5
It would be a drag to completely repeat everything that was mention in the Content section.... but- your site oozes with originality and uniqueness! It displays high-quality fonts that reach high above any other font site so far!

Sitely: 8/10
Your sitely section is overcrowded with buttons! Too many colors and animations: that's quite a lot to looks at! It is highly recommended that link backs and affiliates are in button link form, while listers and achievements (if possible) are in written link form.

2 points deducted for button bombardment.

Other Notes:
Well, all seemed to be stated above for Mo's Fonts... so to not repeat EVERYTHING, we'll just leave with a few simple words: High-Quality, Unique, One of a Kind!
