First Impression

I wanted to close the window.

The site's name I can't even pronounce! Is it "Lupi-Bob times three"? "Lupi bobcks three?" How do you say it? Not only is it hard to pronounce, it's hard to remember.

But thankfully she has good grammar!

Navigation

The navigation is on the left in a side bar and is easily seen/used. It is divided into Home, Content, Site, Comment, Reviews [which is a broken link, and quite frankly I don't think you're experienced enough to offer reviews], and Listing [and it too is broken!]. I would suggest moving your little dragon eggs below the navigation. Why they're the first thing in your sidebar is beyond me.

Header

Ugh. As soon as I saw it I wanted to X out. The edges of each flower are horribly pixellated. The arangement of the tulips is not appealing. The flowers are also blurry, cut poorly and badly colored. There are brushes used, but not in a skilled manner, they are slapped on like an afterthought.

The site's name can be easily read on the header, as is the host site's name.

Coding

The coding doesn't match the header, except that there is a randoom light purple blob on the image, and that it's background is blue. All of the coding's colors came from the blob, the site name, and the background, but there are about six other colors in the image header that don't fit in at all because they are not present in the coding. The coding is also very bland. Everything is Tahoma, and there isn't much use of text-decorations to vary it. The bold text and the H2 text is hard to read against the blue background.

It would appear you're using an iFrame, which is really unecessary since you use PHP.

She uses an external style sheet. Bravo.

Content

Textures
These look like they were made in paint, and then blurred a thousand times in Photoshop [or whatever image editor she 'uses']. The burriness makes me feel like I've gone blind, and the pastels aren't helping. I honestly can't see anyone using these. If you make more, use different colors and don't blur the hell out of them. I would make them open in a new window, too.

Brushes
I wonder if these brushes are as pixelated as the preivews are. Well, I can't see because none of the links to download work!

Scribbles
I've never understood the point of these, but these are good. You should make more.

Layouts
There are two of these. The second one's coding matches the header at least. They have an order form in which you order one with your site's name. Needless to say, these are as impressive as her site layout.

Blank Buttons
These are her textures cut and cropped into buttons. So, I have the same feelings toward these that I do toward her textures.

Icon Backgrounds
You should probably specify these are 50 X 50 icons. These are much better quality [meaning not blurry] than her other works. Why can't everything else on your have the image quality of these?

Summary

You need to work on your image editing/coding skills. I have no idea what program you use, but you need to learn how to work it.

I don't plan on returning to this site, because I don't believe there is anything useful here for visitors, save for the scribbles, and I have no idea what people use those for.

Sugesstions

  • Stop blurring the hell out of your textures. I'd just remove them.
  • Fix your broken links [or remove them, if the places they go to don't even exist].
  • Have your links that lead outside of your site open in a new window.
  • Make more scribbles, since you're good at it.
  • Your coding should match the header. Do not put a bunch of colors in a header and only use three of them.
