It's extremely plain. It looks as if the image itself was just slightly rotated, faded out and then a pattern or two was slapped over it. I think that, had the colors been adjusted slightly, it would've come out looking a lot more attractive and/or appealing rather than dull. Plus, the little twirly brush thing on the bottom left hand corner just doesn't seem to match.

CSS: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
You're using an external stylesheet, yet you've got the internal stylesheet headers in your .css file (the <style></style> stuff). You also have colored scrollbars, which does not work in Firefox (and I'm use Firefox) nor is it considered valid coding. You're also using a lot of internal styling even though you have an external stylesheet. It makes it rather pointless to have an external stylesheet if you're going to internally style your layout as well. You should also seriously reconsider your font sizes, as most people nowadays are using large screen resolutions (I have 1280x800) so your font would be extremely difficult to read.

Coding: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Your coding is extremely poor. It would've done you tons better had you used framesets rather than this sort of jumbled up tables (and I'm sure if you wanted to, you could find a way to use DIVs to code it too). Your code is sloppy and inconsistent within each inline frame page. Your headers, in the two frame pages, should still consist of a title and meta tags. It's not hard to read, but it's messy and you shouldn't rely so heavily on Image Ready for your table code.

Overall: 1  2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Overall, it's a cute and simple design. Even so, there's far too much green. Your image has more than just greens on it, so the fact that you relied so heavily on that one color alone is somewhat of a disappointment. The icon also doesn't match the design, as the icon is far more light and white.

It was okay, although I’m not too fond of the crosshatching-ish lines on the image. I suppose it’s okay for an anime layout though.

CSS: 6
I couldn’t find a stylesheet…I think she might have put the css in .rar format; I don’t know what that is. So I can’t really judge it. But from looking at the layout, I can tell that the css was good. The navigation was simple and matched the layout’s image.

Coding: 9.5
The coding was pretty neat, although when I checked the validation, there were 17 errors, but they were very minor.

Overall: 7
It looks pretty basic. The coding is good, but I felt that Olivia could have enhanced the image more with Photoshop, like maybe use some brushes, textures, and gradients/colors. This could make the image become more than just part of an anime picture. Also, I’ve never really liked i-frame layouts that much, but that’s just me..

I like the header image! Its a very good quality image you used in it, and the colors you used in editing are very complimentary. The only thing that bothers me is the patern over the people that sorta blends out to the side. I don't know, I think you should have made that pattern fainter and less noticeable. I see why you did that though, on a simple layout like that, every little detail counts and it needed something.

CSS: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Your css is very pretty, and I especially like your header. Your links are a little wierd though, and I think that you used the wrong color for them when you hover. Pink? Where is there pink in your layout? Other than the peoples skin, there is no pink. I would have used a brown or a yellow to make it stand out, but not clash.

Your coding is very well done, I do not see any obvious flaws, and the organization of your iframes is well done too. Also you centered the iframe thing (how do you DO that??) I'm still trying to figure that out.

Its a very nice, simple design. I would have tried to incorporate more brown into it to make it pop more though. Overall, very well made though!
