Comment: The codes are amazing, but I don't see the connection between the images. I saw that there was a long explanation and honsetly; let the art do the talking. This skin didn't talk to me.

Comment: The codes are fabulous, but I don't think the image matches the codes. I see no effort in the image. Honsetly, I can make that image in less than 10 minutes.

Name of skin: [♥]25. Rush Hour }} SHD_xx
Username: SHATTEREDreams_xx

Suitability of Codes: 4/5
Appropriate colours. You might want to spice your codes up a little. Your codes are a little teeny weeny bit messy but there are spaces here and there so it doesn’t look too clumped up. Good job!

Design: 8/10
The blending is very good. I see a link between the caption/theme (Rush hour) and the pictures. Very creative. The cloud texture (is it a texture?) was soothing, though it’s like dreamy VS rush hour. One more thing, the birds didn’t fit in the colours of the other two pictures which were rather bold and colourful but still it was very well done.

Effort (the quality): 5/5
This goes to blending and choice of theme/pictures.

Total: 17/20

Name of skin: FOLKIN'AROUND//♥BONBON:D
Username: ♥BONBON:D

Suitability of Codes: 5/5
Good colours. Relatively neat codes which are user-friendly. Good job!

Design: 9/10
Nice collage. Very bold and colourful (esp the flowers) The scrapbook/dirty paper thingy is nice too. Good choice of pictures. Good that you popped the bubble and used your own pictures.

Name of Skin: {#6} Missing You;;&& {/rainbowpopcorn!:D}
Username: /rainbowpopcorn!:D

Suitability of Codes: 4/5
Very neat, though you might want to spice it up. Maybe give the links some hover or smth. Good effort with the colours.

Design: 8.5/10
Nice colour scheme but make sure you don’t overdo it. I like the textures and the blending. Nice headers too. It looks a little cut off on the right so take note of that. And since your caption says “I still want to ride on your bike” you might want to put in the picture of the bicycle or smth. But well done!

Effort (the quality): 4.5/5
Points taken from the codes sorry!

Name of skin: velvet-sky #17 - to the Sky.
Username: velvet-sky

Suitability of Codes: 5/5
Neat codes which are appropriate but take note that the font colours aren’t too light/contrasting otherwise they’ll be hard to read.

Design: 9/10
Nice blending and very calming colours used. Sweet and simple. It’s great

Username: theperfectplot.

Suitability of Codes: 5/5
Make sure it doesn’t get too messy. But generally they’re ok, relatively appropriate.

Design: 8/10
Nice poem/caption but don’t make the whole thing too wordy. Good blending but I don’t see very much a link. And the caption with the red words seem to be sticking out so maybe you’d want to work on that. Otherwise very well done!

Effort (the quality): 4.5/5
Taken from the codes, sorry.

Name of the skin: Rhythm of life.

Suitability of Codes: 5/5
Don’t let your codes get too messy. Appropriate colours etc, I like the codes.

Design: 8.5/10
I like the strip of pictures. And your blending is good too. I like the colours you used too. You might want to consider aligning the strip of pictures with your columns so that everything doesn’t look so decentralized. Your caption sounds a bit funny but I second it. Yup but other than that I like the whole concept, good job!
PS I think you’re supposed to credit at this link www.missioncomplete.ca/wiki/index.php

Suitability of Codes: 5/5
Relatively neat and nice. The red hovers are a little out of place but I guess we can make do with it. Nice navy green/brown colours.

Design: 8.5/10
Wow I see where you’re heading with the placement. Past and the present. Hmm good try at that I think it’s creative but a little misleading/ambiguous if you didn’t know it was supposed to be that way. Very nicely blended/merged. I like how you made use of the pictures to create the mood. Good job!

Name of the skin: At the streets.
User: !glamourcrash♥

Suitability of Codes: 5/5
Very neat codes! Relatively nice colours except that the aqua is too bold for the grey scheme.. Nice work.

Design: 7.5 /10
Nice try since this is your first. The blending is not bad but avoid putting too much stuff together because it becomes a little messy. It gives me a box-y feel, very squarish but that’s just my opinion. All in all it’s simple and neat so good effort!

Suitability of Codes: 4/5
Quite neat, the colours are ok though you might want to venture further and spice your codes up a little. Take note of the fonts you use too. Nevertheless, well done!

Design: 7.5 /10
You could do away with the black lines and maybe the splatter towards the end of the image. Note image quality though it’s relatively ok. Your caption’s colour clashes with the background too. The blending’s fine so yup keep going!

Effort (the quality): 4.5/5
From the base codes, sorry.

Very neat though it gets a little cramp. In fact I like your codes a lot. Suitable colours, everything’s good. Well done!

Design: 9.5/10
Everything’s good. Calming colours, stylish design. Nice blending except that the bicycle doesn’t quite look like one anymore heh heh. Other than that I think it’s fine. Everything’s looking good!

Very neat and user-friendly, good job! Colours are fine, everything’s good.

Design: 8.5/10
I like what you did with the pictures. You might want to relate your caption to the pictures and have a link. (or maybe I was too dumb to read between the lines) Other than that I think it’s just great.

  Just saying *throws confetti all around* is too boring, and I am not exactly a green person. You totally have no idea how many foolscap paper I waste a day on my gibberish and scribblings! Oops, I shouldn't have said that out loud. :|
