Amazing Codes Review..
Site: Amazing Codes
Screenshot: Click here
Well the first thing I noticed about your site is that the layout doesn't look like every other myspace/graphic site out there. It stands out a bit more and I really like the brushes you've used on the layout. However there are few things I didn't like or wasn't sure about. Click here to view a screen shot; it has my dislikes. They are just these small things. Also you should bring up the layout image a bit more. Amazing Codes; I'm not in love with the name but it does make me very curious on how you come up with it and again it doesn't sound like those myspace/graphic sites. Scroll down to view the new screenshot of the layout.
For Myspace/Profiles
You've got a lot of layouts and I like the images you used for the vector layouts. I am disappointed by the stylesheets of some of the layouts. They look alike dispite the use of different images. Your friendster layouts are really cute though. The rest of the profile graphics look good; I really like the picture captions.
Decoration:
There is a message under the 2nd page of backgrounds at the bottom. You may want to remove this. The misc icons page; you could create an "Animals" section because you do have a lot of animal icons. The graphics are good but some hurt my eyes. Tip: Chose colours that compliment each other and make sure your visitor can read what it says and it doesn't hurt their eyes. Your animations are really good though. I didn't know people used animated clothing...but they are okay as well.
Comments
Your glitters are good; I like that they're simple and not to flashy. You should make more. You've got some pretty good stuff in this section. I really like the sports glitters and comment sets.
Makers
I do not like the layout maker. First of all; it just links to the graphics on your site. People want things easily accessible and they may not go through those steps. You need to provide more instructions and maybe explain "html" and "stylesheets" a little more. You glitter maker is quite old-fashioned; there a free glitter generators out there that's easier to use. The scrolling text maker is okay; you should provide a hex colour codes or link to a site that provides one. That way your visitors can put whatever colours they desire.
Graphics
The Website signs are good; I like how you offer a variety. The layouts and the blank buttons are good. I like the blank buttons. You may want to add some more coded layouts because its just easier to use.
Resources
The brushes are very good! You've got HQ brushes and its my favorite thing on the site so far. The only thing, I think you should provide the imagepacks in a .zip folder. Your blends needs improvement, there are lots of tutorials out there. The textures are okay, it would be better if they were bigger. The glitter fills are fine, you should just slightly reduce on the noise effect. For the edited images I think you should add more effects like colorizations and such. Also you should save your previews in .jpg format because it takes long to load. You need to cater for all your visitors and since I have dial up, .png images take a while to load for me. Not everyone will have the patience to wait for graphics to load. Didn't some of those patterns come with PSP already and I have seen some of those patterns on other sites. I hate the fact that some are offered in one image, I won't want to crop each of them out. They're also so small. I think the 2nd page of the patterns is much better!
The tutorials are good. I think the myspace coding tutorial needs to be explained a little more. You can provide an entire stylesheet and explain what each part is used for.
Well I started this review about 2 weeks ago, I am just finishing it up. I saw that you changed your layout. I like the header image, its cute and simple but I sort of preferred the previous one because it was different. I like to see really pretty css and your stylesheet looks almost the same for your layouts. Its a little bit plain. Just change it up once in a while, it'll encourage visitors to check back and see what's new. Click here for the new screenshot showing what I don't like about the layout.
This is the longest review I've ever done! You offer so much content for your visitors and have lots of pages! Some of graphics are really HQ but some look like beginner stuff. Then there's some where I don't get the point of it. Replace your old graphics with new ones, your site will look completely updated and fresh! I realize you update your site often, that's very good but remember its also about quality; so don't rush yourself. You could have easily gotten a 4 but there were a few things I didn't really like. Make some new improvements and you can have one amazing site!
