Sin-Shadows

First Impression: When I first see your site my impression isn't amazing, but I'm curious enough to look around a bit. One thing that annoys me is the button for being reviewed which I think you should either have a transparent background for, or you could take it off seeing as there's also a link to that page next to it. The background for the "aisyah" thing you have at the end of each blog should also be transparent. I look around a little and I can see that there are an awful lot of buttons like the "Huntingtons" one in the corner, the firefox one in the middle of the layout and the get reviewed button.

Content: First I see that under the place where it says scripts + softwares it says click here for the scripts and softwares. I think it's not so good to have the click here part because you read the same thing twice and I just think it might be better to change that a little or maybe take the page off. I'm reading the descriptions for these scripts and I'm not getting much out of it. You don't really describe them too much and when you do it can be a bit hard to understand. The 404 error signs are pretty good, some of them I find are a bit blurry but that's alright. I can tell you put quite a bit of work into these. Some of the icons are amazing and some not as much, I think you should try and get rid of some that aren't as great. The color palettes are good, you've got some nice shades. The pixels are nice but I think it would be better if they were transparent. I went to your psd page and for one thing, I don't think they should be psds and instead you could try pngs because pngs can be used with just about every program and because photoshop takes a little while to load. I also think it would be better if you chose pictues that didn't put the person off, like in your ashley tisdale ones the top of most of them are cut off. The blends I'm very impressed with! The only thing I could suggest here is to not have the blue border so you would need to add border="0" to the img part of your coding for each blend. I went to the basic php tutorial and I found that you didn't close a <*b> tag, go to that page and you'll see that the footer and sidebar is bold. In the tutorial for advertising the footer is a bit higher than I think it should be. Your credit page is really good as well as the review page.

Layout/Coding: Maybe it's just me but I find the layout image a bit blurry. The ".com" part of the layout image is bright pink which is too bright and I think you could have a lighter shade of pink or a green of some sort. I like the effect that when you hover over a link in your sidebar the bullet changes, I think it would be nice if you could make a tutorial for this. Above the sidebar and main part there is a kind of black line and it looks a bit out of place so I think this should really be taken away or you should align it with the sidebar and main part. Besides that I think your coding is nice and easy to read so good job.

Updates/Blog: I see you update fairly regulary, not that regularly but I can see that each time you do you update a lot which is fine. You blog quite often which is really great and I can see that you spell properly and your blogs are interesting. Something I think you should change about your updates is that you type for example "16.4.2008. >>" and I think you should take away the 2008 because we all know the year and something I think would be cool is if you changed 16.4 to April 16th but it's no big deal.

Conclusion: I think you have quite a good site here and a lot of people like and know about it. Your site deffinetly doesn't have any huge problems but I think there are a few things here and there that should be fixed. One thing is to have the get reviewed and aisyah buttons to have transparent backgrounds. Try and reduce the amount of buttons and banners. There are quite a few other little things that I have mentioned and it may not seem like much but I think your site can look even better if you follow my advice.d
