~*~Username and Title: Those little bubbly circle thingies are cute. Degree symbols? Yes, yes. Girl-razor...ah, no...I'm really hoping you're not another cutter...-2/5.

~*~Thoughts While The Page Was Loading:It's always interesting to see the diaries whose owners specifically request me for their reviewer, yes indeed, it is...Ow...that's dark...-3/5.

The Starlit-Lily Factor:

~*~Does Your Soul Shine Through?Sort of. You seem to be a bit of a romantic, somewhat spiritual, and fairly mature. You're not very strongly any one thing; you're pretty much just...average. You have a certain artistic flare about you, with the exception of the current mistake of a layout which your diary is featuring. Overall, I wasn't particularly moved. It's like you apply bland filters before you write in your diary. In truth, this diary seems to be more of your personal daylog than anything else; it doesn't seem to be a "showy" diary, really, which is what most reviewees have, and truthfully need in the diary-reviewing world. Are you showing me everything about you? -20/35.

~*~Are You Observant Of Beauty? In most of your earlier entries, there wasn't anything at all. I doubt I have to tell you how deeply that annoys me. However, in your later entries, I came across such gems as this.. I really like seeing that--oh, yes, indeed, I do. It warms my heart. However, there needs to be more of it! If you can open your eyes even once, you can open it twice, three times, ten, a thousand. Do it, and be happy. -26/35.

Layout:

Wow. I hate to say this, but it's because of you that I'm going to start allowing myself to use negative points. This layout is horrible. I'm very sorry, but this is quite possibly one of the worst layouts I've ever seen. It's very dark and dreary, which normally I don't mind if the font's readable or pretty, but that's not the case. THIS color against black? What were you thinking? You must have taken your morning jog through the Stupid Forest and ran into every damn tree there before you came to your computer and made this layout. I don't even like the concept. It doesn't make any sense to me whatsoever. Why, oh why, oh why did you not use one of the beautiful layouts you've made in the past? I would give you the most negative points I could give in this section, but seeing as you did design it yourself, I'm going to give you a negative five instead.- (-)5/20.

Navigation:

It's organized and everything, but for all I know, there are more links there that I can't see at all, even with highlighting the box. They're excruciating to try and read. -0/10.

Content:

~*~Your Content:I read a lot, then stopped, forgot where I had stopped, and then picked a random entry and read till the end. That being said...

After I finish writing this review, I'm thinking about creating a new section of the Fame/Shame page and including the ways in which I wish to torture people like you, who first ask for a review for a diary with a monstrosity of a layout, and THEN don't even bother to give me a diary that's worth the headache I got from trying to see your damn font. There were only glimmers, mere glimmers, of things worth reading in there; most of your entry either contained not enough detail on the subjects that were even remotely interesting, or too much detail on the subjects that not even your cat or your dog would care to listen to. You occasionally have an interesting moody entry, but even those got old after a while. In my opinion, after suffering through that layout, your diary is a waste of bandwidth.

Granted, you do write fairly well. You write with some modicum of intelligence, which is all that keeps me from inventing a way to slap someone over the lovely World Wide Web. Your style is simple, though not childish, and it does reflect, to some extent, your personality.

Mostly, your diary was just painful. I'm sorry, but I have to be honest. -32/70.

~*~Your Grammar and Spelling: Your grammar and spelling were quite good. I was contented with it. -9/10.

Extras:
Mmm-hmm, you had some extras, although I'm not sure how many, because I was so irritated by your layout situation and the difficulty in locating and reading all the links that I didn't bother to check to see just how many there were. -10/10.

Will I Return?

Not really. I was bored by your diary, and it made me want to hurt you, because of the layout.

Comments:

For the sake of reviewers' eyes everywhere, change that mutating, moldy banana peel of a layout.

Total:97/200. I'm not going to send you to the Desert just because your layout was heinous.
