30/30 - Overall Design:
I love it. It's a gray and white layout with bold black links, (they actually become capitalized when I mouseover). Normally, I dislike capitalizing links on mouseover, but this compliments the layout so well, I can't take off points. The image is fantastic, and a bit blurry. It's a sketch, so the lines are literally gray, and not as sharp as a finished piece. However, the lines are bold enough to create a clear picture, and I imagine it fits you well. The text at the bottom is very cool-looking. Though it overlaps, it's easy to figure out what it says, (inspired? pent up fodder v.20, oh hell).. I mean, don't ask me what that means, but I'm sure you explain it somewhere, or at least give it relevance. In addition, your rollover images are adorable. They are subtle, yet very cool looking. Rock on.
20/20 - Functional:
Very functional. Normally, I don't dig on the compact layout, because it makes entries hard to read... however, you seem to keep entries short, or at least compact enough to match the layout. I clicked the bio link, so that's what I'm going on, if you were wondering.
5/10 - Aesthetic:
Okay, so the mouseover capitalized links get annoying. They jiggle your text around like mad, and I just can't say I like that enough to give you full points. Also, all text within parenthasis show up a very light gray against your background color. I suggest making that background color a bit darker, or preferably, making your parenthasis text a bit darker.
20/20 - Navigation:
Awesome. I love the rollover navigation, and it's very easy to find my way around. Plus everything works, as far as I know, and that just rocks.
10/10 - Originality:
This is a first, fo' sho.
10/10 - Browser Compatible:
Not entirely, but it isn't bad enough to take off points for (your entry text slightly overlaps the height of your text box). On your design site, you mentioned that all of your layouts look like crap in any OS other than windows, but girl, this one looks awesome. I hope it was intentional.
Total: 95/100 eeexcellent.
