first impression

Okay. I find it weird that on the application, Summer said her site name was Loveless Ave, but her domain's URL is loveless-ave with a hyphen. Be consistent!

graphic

The graphic is interesting. It doesn't feature any images, just brushes and shapes with the site name. It's nothing thrilling or over the top amazing, but it's nice and simple.

coding

The CSS is okay, different colors are used that match the graphic and different fonts are used. It would have been more interesting if different headers had been used between the main div and the sidebar. Also, the italic text is hard to read in the sidebar. That shade of yellow on a light grey background is too hard on the eyes.

I don't like how the main div has a white background that pops up out of no where and cuts off part of the graphic's brushes.

content

Visitor content includes domain layouts, backgrounds, quotes, Twilight (Sabs: UGH.) quotes, picture captions, image maps, blends, edited photos, magazine scans, icons, textures, brushes, scribbles, emoticons, tutorials, and hosting.

ALL CONTENT ON THIS WEBSITE WAS MADE 100% BY ME UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE, SO PLEASE NO JOCKING, ITS A CRIME AND NOT VERY COOL, SO PLEASE RESPECT THAT. THANK YOU! XOXO-SUMMER

ITS should be IT'S.

domain layouts;

I designed and coded this so please do not steal all the hard work i did and claim as your own its just sad. Enjoy! and leave my credit on there!

Try: I designed these, so please do not steal anything. I put a lot of hard work into them, and for someone to claim them as their own would just be sad. Also, remember to leave my credit on them!

Too bad these are "domain layouts." Layouts would have been a better title, seeing as you can use layouts not only on domains but also on subdomains, freewebs, piczo, neopets, and on, and on.

The two layouts that feature people are really poorly made. The designs are bad, the people look like they're decaying, and it's not attractive. The SAME style sheets are used on each layout, just different colors! That is very boring.

backgrounds;
These are sort of in-your-face patterns.

quotes;
Well, there is only one, and it has a typo! "Your" should be you're. Also, there sould be a comma after will.

I don't understand the point of offering quote graphics.

twilight quotes;
What is the point? "Werent" should be weren't. "i" should be I. "didn't" should be didn't. "im" should be I'm.

Proof read.picture captions;
These, too, seem like a waste.

image maps;
Okay, this might actually get used. However, it's a bit bland.

blends;
Uh. These are not even blended. There are two image in each graphic, but they are not blended. These are very boring.

edited photos;
Again, awfullly boring except for two.

magazine scans;
No. Visitors do not have to credit this site if they use these scans. They're not Summer's property.

icons;
Very minimal editing.

textures;
Interesting textures... I personally wouldn't use them, because I got for grunge textures that are greyscale.

brushes;
Are these for Photoshop? Paint Shop Pro? Are image packs available? How do you download them? Nothing is written about the things mentioned above.

Only image packs are available. Offer an actual download!

scribbles;
Why? Wy do people make these. They look bad on almost every site, don't get used, and only waste time.

emoticons;
Aw. These are cute, though on the big side for emoticons.

tutorials;
There's only one, and it's How to Create a Subdomain on cPanel. ...CPANEL HAS VIDEO TUTORIALS FOR THIS! It's already super simple.

hosting;
Number 3 is worded awkwardly under "AS A MEMBER; you agree to..."

Every first word of a rule needs to have a capital letter.

"its" should be it's.

LOL. "stuffs" is not a word.

"there" should be their.

navigation

The links on the image map include home, visitors, domain, hosting, and myspace.

Credits can be found off of the domain page. However! NOTHING IS LINKED! Summer needs to create links to her resources. Including my site :(

overall

This site is cute, but a lot of the content is useless and a waste of time. The site is riddled with spelling errors and a few grammatical problems. The content should be updated with more useful, appropriate content. The credits page needs to link to sites. Seriously.
