Superawr

Reviewed while owning previous site: Altered-Fate.

introduction

site: Superawr
owner: Dez
reviewed: July 27th, 2008

screen shot

first impression

A lot of white and light colors. Light colors are good for summer and spring, but this looks very boring.

The content doesn't look like it will be boring though. It looks like there's a lot of it for visitors!

graphic

The current graphic is very boring. A picture of Ashley Tisdale, her nose looks a little pixelated, there are no brushes, no text, no other pictures, scans, or stock images. superrawr.info is written along the left.

coding

The coding is more interesting than the graphic, and the colors match nicely. I don't really see aything amazing.

Dez has done a nice job on the repeating background, it looks like all the strips match up.

content

Visitor content includes icons, pixels, cute graphics, scribbles, button templates, color schemes, premaded coded layouts, premaded uncoded layouts, and reads. "Reads" isn't really visitor content, though.

Icons;
Most of the icons are really plain, they feature a person with some basic color changes, sometimes a name or a word or a line. Fairly boring.

Pixels;
What are these? What are they for? What's a toybox?

Cute Graphics;
These are useless. No one would use these in a layout. Why would anyone? I think Dez's time would be better spent on other aspects of her site.

Scribbles;
Why does she offer these? Another thing that takes up her time. Who would use these in a layout? They just look horendous.

Button Templates;
These seem silly. If someone has a site, why can't they make their own buttons?

Color Schemes;
Pretty plain, and only six are offered.

Premade Coded Layouts;
The thumbnail previews are nice, but I don't like how they're just one part of the layout. I'd rather see the whole thing on a scale.

Pretty plain, boring, not much is going on. This goes for the graphics in the layouts and the coding.

Premade Uncoded Layouts;
These aren't really premaded uncoded layouts. They're more like graphics. Premade uncoded layouts are usually graphics that can easily be made into layouts. These have no places for content and don't blend nicely into a backgronud color.

Again, same thing with the thumbnail previews.

These are a litle more interesting though. Some more brushes/text would liven them up.

Reads;
I'm not reading these, they're not actual content.

navigation

The site is pretty easy to navigate. The subpages are listed along the right and include all about me, the visitor content, tutorials, about the domain, site reviews, terms && conditions, and back to the blog.

Where are the resources Dez has used... I will look.

I think I found her resources on the bottom of the about the domain page, good good.

Very easy to navigate. Subpages include home, content, site, affies, requests, and credit. All links are found easily on the left.

overall

Superawr needs some sprucing up. It's a bland site with a lot of boring content for visitors, some of which is useless and a waste of time.

Using more exciting colors, brushes, lryics, and text in the layouts/graphics would be a good start.

I think... her last layout (or one of them) had all these different colored pencils along the top, it looked really cool.

apologies!

Dez, I'm so sorry I spelled your site name incorrectly, really, I am. I didn't mean to offend you in anyway, it was just a mistake.

I've gone through the review and think I fixed my mistakes for that.

Once again, extremely sorry.

comments

note: the cbox below is the same one on all review pages.

if you leave a comment... then refer to the name of the site. This review was for Zellow Productions

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!"


When inappropriate comments are found (though it will probably be soon after they've been posted) they will be deleted.
