[so strong... yet so delicate... is she who writes here] Content (30/40)- As far as I can see you write about day-today events. I went through several of those type entries until I reached one that contained emotion. LThis entry caught my attention, because you open up more about yourself. I prefer to read about you and how you feel compared to you washing dishes and reading a book. This was another entry I enjoyed a lot. You fill your diary with many quotes and extras and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that, but actual writing is necessary too. You had multiple pages of quotes, poems, Shakespearean related material, and other things that weren't really readable content. I'm sure a few people found this interesting, but I didn't and just skipped it. This was another entry that I took to heart. Being a teenager and understanding how that works I can tell you who decides that: the person. You write very emotional when you want, but at other times you use no emotion at all. It's okay to write about your day because it's important to you, but I doubt I would read it and that'swhy I skimmed a lot of entries in your diary.
Layout (8/10)- Wow! A good self-designed layout. The colors blend, the borders are dashed and pretty, a flower image that goes along with the light colored flower background, it's heaven. I can't belive that I'm seeing a self-designed layout thats colors match and has tables! Okay, I'm calmed down. I'm not one for flowers and girly frills, but I like this, because it's simple, elegant, and the brown tones down the girliness of it all. I like how the image is cut and isn't just a plain rectangle. I loathe drop-down menus, but since it only contains a couple of sites you read; I can manage. The links on the image are a wee bit hard to find because they're light colored and blend in with the image. It took me a few seconds to find them, but maybeit's just me.
Grammar and Spelling (13/15)- Fairly decent.
Updating (5/5)- I don't judge this area. Free points.
Contacts (8/10)- Comments. Guestbook. Email. AIM.
Getting Around (5/10)- The links blend in with the image and unless you look for awhile, I don't think they're very visible. I also find drop-down menus quite annoying.
Extra Things (5/5)- Auto Biography. Cast. Website. Sites I read. I-mood. Reviews. Quizzes. Imagery of me & my space. Things in my purse. Books on my shelf. Sis website. Quote garden. Pictures. Short bio.
Fun Factor (3/5)- A few of the extras were fun.
Extra Credit (2/5)- For all the unusual extras you had and for self-designing a beautiful layout.
Total (79/100)- Bronze Award.
Comments- The only problem I had was trying to find the links and then BOOM! I find them in the image. They blend in so well that they're hard to see. Blending everything together is a must, but too much blending results in camouflage.
