Review for: Mana Petz
Layout - 17/20
Pretty layout! The colours blend together nicely. The banner at the top looks kind of
pixelized, though. But it's alright. I like the sparkly green background. It's awesome. :]
One thing I noticed though is that you don't keep a consiistent layout throughout the whole
site - all of the pages have different backgrounds. It's smoother to the eye to keep
one background at a time, in my opinion. You don't have to take any of this advice, though.
I'm just mentioning it incase. Anyways, overall, it's a funky, fresh layout.
Content - 19/20
Ahhh, here we go. The first thing I noticed was the automatic music. It's cute, but
it can get kind of unappealing to visitors when they visit and the music automatically
starts (maybe they were listening to music already, etc.) But it's good that there is
an on and off option. ;) You have some very cute dogz up for adoption. I'm tempted to
steal a few myself. I'd try not to have so many that require breedfiles, though. But your
adoptions are very unique and interesting looking. Definitley different from what's usually
offered on petz sites. Kudos for that. You have A LOT to do on your fun page - that's great!
Even if it's a bit disorganized...maybe use dividers to make it smoother to the eye?
Oh - and I have an answer to your FAQ. To get screenshots, look for something that says "print
screen" on your keyboard. Click that, and it will bring up a screenshot. Just copy and paste
it into paint, and save it. :P Whoa, cool trades! I like the Waff thing...that's made of awesome. XD
Your about page is disorganized...once again, that can be fixed with dividers. One thing I noticed
right away was a banner used from PD - thank you for using it, glad to know people use it...but
I couldn't find credit for it anywhere? :o Lots and lots of info on that page though. That's good.
Yayyness, you have shows as well...that's starting to dissapear off of petz sites...good thing
you still went with it! Who dosen't like entering shows? You have lots of other unique ideas
on your site as well. That's awesome. Keep it up!
Just remember to stay organized. That's one of the key points in ANY website!
Navigation - 18/20
Hmmm...the navigation is very easy to find, and it's simple to navigate,
but why not trying to organize the organization a little more? ~_- Maybe
adding sub categories and organizing things into there? For example: About, adopt, other, etc.
You get the point.
Entertainment - 20/20
Overall, you have a lot to do on your site to keep visitors attached for a long time - that's
awesome. There aren't too many big, big sites out there in the PC - it appears to be a rare
thing these days - so good for you. Your site has a lot to do, and it shines above a lot of
other petz sites with it's unique and creative ideas.
Knowledge - 15/20
You don't seem to know HTML at all, and you use Paint to edit all your stuff, but that's okay.
You're really young, and still learning. GIMP is a great way to edit pictures, and it's
a thousands time better than Paint. You can make really creative graphics on it, and it's
just as good as PSP or Photoshop. I can help you with it, if you like.
Total: 89 %
Summary: DON'T let anything I've said in this review discourage you. Your site has great
potential, and it's definitley a splash of colour among a lot of the dull greys in the
Petz Community. Your site is creative and stands out - and that's what really matters.
Keep it going!
