30/30 - Overall Design:
I really like the majority of layouts you've done, and I like the current one as well. (Anna requested a sort of combo review, so for any readers out there wondering why I'm reviewing past and present layouts, that's why). My favorite past layouts are Sarah Michelle Gellar, this one of Trent Reznor and Placidity, (by the by, the links don't go directly to the images, because you included the # sign in the a name link; just delete it, and they will work). I liked some the others, but those were my favorites. The only real suggestion I have for your past layouts, is ease up on the distracting graphics. Sometimes simplicity is a good thing. I like the Trent layout sans the funky gray border -- but I'm not sure if that was intentional, or just a glitch in the screen shot. As far as Orlando goes, well.. he's just adorable, isn't he? Your layout is very neatly put together, obviously made for an 800x 600 browser, but none the less, well done.
20/20 - Functional:
Extremely. I mean, when I first saw your layout, I was blown away at how extreme it was. As in, extremely functional. Seriously, though, it is pretty darn funk-shun-al, if you get my meaning. Man, I have got to find a way of writing that doesn't come off as sarcastic.. Everything goes together neatly. Usually, I'm intimidated by huge pictures right above the main text, but this layout makes it work. Kudos.
10/10 - Aesthetic:
Oh baby, I am aesthetically pleased, alright. No suggestions for improvement.
20/20 - Navigation:
Easy as pie.
10/10 - Originality:
All of your layouts, no matter how poppy or trendy, seem to be original. Even if I don't particularly care for them, they are new and different to me, which is definitely nice.
10/10 - Browser Compatible:
Check. The only problem I ran across, was that your text overlaps your table in the entry area. I don't know what to tell you that will fix it, because I rarely use CSS to format the body of my pages. Mess around if it bothers you, but I doubt it would bother anyone else -- and it doesn't bother me.
