The updates look a little too cluttered. And, the black borders around the divs/tables don't look good with all of the white.
The coding looks very simple.
However, it looks like there's a lot of content available for visitors, which is great.
The splattered brushes used are repeated many times, making it visible that only one or two actual brushes were used, instead of several.
The black borders around the divs were just a bad idea, they don't look good with all of the light colors. I understand the concept of contrast, but it hasn't been used well here.
This graphic would seem better to me if it didn't look like the last five layouts that Summer's featured as her site layout, it's getting boring and repetitive.
I understand Summer's a beginner though.
Looking at Summer's code tells me that she's not quite sure about what everything does. For the colors, she uses mostly color names instead of hex codes, a picture is provided below of her code.
As far as her layouts go, she offers coded, uncoded, and myspace layouts. The one coded layout she offers right has the same basic layout as her site layout, features neon pink and blue, but has a lot of black instead of white. Two of the uncoded layouts also feature neon colors, and the remaining uncoded layout is more of a graphic than a layout. It would be a lot easier if the layouts opened in new windows.
The headers are fairly boring, but nicely made, once again they all feature neon colors.
The image maps (Which can be used where? Myspace? She doesn't tell us where, nor does she tell us where to put the code, assuming they're for Myspace.) are all neon colors, as well.
Well! The Myspace codes she offers are a refreshing change! There are no neon colors here, they're just codes. They're labeled nicely, and any visitor could easily find what he/she is looking for.
I'm not quite sure where you're supposed to use her scrollboxes. Myspace, perhaps? I'm not really sure, she doesn't tell us where to use them or what they're for. They're all neon colored and a little tacky looking.
The premade signs that Summer offers are currently of scene models. All of the signs have neon pink and blue, which, quite frankly, I'm sick of now, after all of her content being neon pink and blue. Where is the "sign" part of the signs? They don't say anything.
The graphics available all feature neon colors, except the Fourth of July one. The first says "good girls are just naughty girls who haven't got caught yet," which, not only is a little queer (queer means weird, not gay, get over yourself if you want to corrent me, anyone.), but should say "good girls are just naught girls that haven't gotten caught yet." You need gotten, not got.
The brushes are very primitive. I suggest Summer start using higher quality brushes in her layouts more effectively, take down these brushes, and wait till she can make good ones.
I don't see the point of offering fonts on your site if you didn't make them. I don't understand this for any site, not just Summer's. But, since she does offer fonts from DaFont, at least she's credited DaFont. It would be nice if DaFont was actually linked, instead of just "DaFont.com". Unfortunately, the fonts are featured on neon backgrounds.
I stopped by her plugboard while I was there. I find it extremely queer that my button's up there when I never put it up. Thanks, I guess, in a weird way.
I reccomend she begin to user neon colors sparingly.
Once she learns html/css better, maybe she can learn how to align her text to the left and use line breaks in her updates so they're not a mash of words. A RESOURCES page is most definitely needed. I cannot find one on her site. If you don't credit the brushes, fonts, stock, whatever you use, it's stealing.

This cbox is for visitors to comment about the sites that have been reviewed. It is not for visitors' complaints, defending of friends, telling me how to review sites, or for juding my site. If you want to do one of those listed above, feel free to e-mail me at skylineillusions@yahoo.com which is the site e-mail that I check frequently; I don't feel as if there is a need for any one to e-mail me over these reviews, though. I check this cbox about once every two weeks, usually only if one of my friends says "Go look at that cbox!"
