twiksi

background information

site: Twiksi
owner: Charlotte
reviewed: August 16th, 2008

screen shot


click to enlarge, opens in a new window.

first impression

Someone was very eager for a domain, but was not eager to learn how to use a photo editor or make interesting css.

Why is the update blank? Why is the commenting system haloscan? Installing cutenews is not that hard, and it's a lot nicer than haloscan.

The graphic is extremely boring. So is the css.

graphic

This shouldn't even be called a graphic, I'm sorry. The "shaky" outline around Britney Spears looks horendous, there are no brushes, stocks, or textures. There's one random purple circle. If Charlotte absolutely had to add that circle (which doesn't impove the graphic.) why wouldn't she match the color to Spears' dress?

A lot more knowledge of her photo editor is most definitely needed.

coding

Extremely boring, not creative at all. The colors match the purple circle, which should be removed, and colors should match the dress.

This just isn't good. The coding would look better if it and the graphic both had an actual color scheme and some originality.

content

Visitor content includes html codes, tutorials, graphics, reviews, twiksi slang, reads, and downloads.

html codes;
Okay, well, that was a bust. I clicked that link and got a 404 page error. Sorry! The server was unable to find the page you were looking for. For any broken link, please sign the guestbook, and I will fix it and confirm it to you. Same for requests. Again, sorry! Charlii_xX

I am not signing her guestbook. She can fix it when she sees it here.

tutorials;
The first tutorial takes me to another 404 page error. None of the other links work.

graphics;
These are bad, boring, and pixalated. They don't have previews. Why are her site's past layouts listed here? Doesn't matter, it takes me to another 404 page error.

reviews;
Charlotte is not experienced enough with a photo editor or codes to offer reviews, but I'll look anyway. She gives you a percent grade, which is demeaning and lame. Taking off points for not having an enter page is just stupid (by the way, Charlotte, your enter page is not attractive at all.) In a review, for her to say Your homepage is brilliant, it really reflects your personnality. Oh and sorry if I spelt that wrong. Lol ^^. Oh my lord, how pretentious. She's judging others' sites and she won't even double check her spelling? (Or use corrent grammar.)

What the heck does it matter if someone linked back to her site? Apparently it raises their grade by ten percent. How pretentious.

twiksi slang;
Okay. Along the top of the main page it says "The twiksi slang, I made it up! If you want your site to have a slang, you have to give me credit!" This is just extremely vain of Charlotte. Anyone can put up a page for their slang words, Charlotte doesn't own the rights to "slang."

I have no clue why this is even in her content section. Here's what it contains....

This page is abit like the twiksi dictionary, for the really weird words I use... Lol ^^

1. Struddleboodle:- My darling, baby
2. Layout-ing:- Making a layout

First off: you don't need : and -, for the love of god, learn something in an english class.

Second off: If this is like a dictionary, why doesn't she say what part of speech these words are? Maybe she doesn't know what that means.

I wish this link had taken me to another 404 page error.

reads;
I'm not judging these, and I have no clue why they're in the visitor content section. I'm sure they're written in gibberish and I/M slang.

downloads;
Why are these here? They're not Charlotte's downloads, she just links visitors to other sites.

navigation

Relatively easy to navigate, even though some links under the visitor content shouldn't be there.

Sub pages include main, site, guestbook, for you, reviews, and contests.

Off to look for resources... Oh good, a nice list of resources, well done.

overall

This shouldn't be called a site and doesn't deserve a domain. Charlotte should learn how to use her photo editor (does she even really have one?), create more interesting css, proof read what she writes, align text to the left, delete all of her content and start over.

Reviews should not be offered, she is not good enough to judge sites while her own site is a wreck.

The Twiksi Slang page is a real joke. I cannot believe she says if anyone puts a slang page up on her site, they have to credit her.

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 Twiksi

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.
