I like the layout (version 8.1). The colours are brilliant yet subtle. The style is simple and easy to navigate. Yet there are two things that stood out to me that didn’t work too well. First, the black and white horizontal brushes above the boys. I understand that it is used as a separator but to be honest, it isn’t working for me. All the space above the separator isn’t put to a lot of use. As a matter of fact, you seem to have a problem with making use of space, in general.

Presentation
Although Crescent Wings has a wonderfully well-made layout, it lacks some fluidity. The space capacity isn’t put to a whole lot of use. For example, try removing all that space above the black horizontal brush separator, extending the length of the header/title background so that runs the full width of the content column, increasing the width of the chatbox so that it also runs the full width of the navigation column, move some of the navigation links from column 1 to column 2 to even the length of the columns, and display the most recent three updates on each page. I’ve made a screenshot to demonstrate some of these suggestions.
A few problems. Let’s start with the far left column. Your counter is not accurate. Because the counter is placed on every single page, every click I make to view a page adds one to the counter. Every time I refresh the window, the counter goes up by one. So you’re simply cheating your visitors by allowing them to think or giving them the false impression that Crescent Wings is actually a really popular site. I’ve estimated that from this review alone, I would have contributed approximately 40-50 to your counter, all from a single visit. Either find a better counter that only counts the first click per visit or only display the counter on the homepage and no where else.
There is inconsistent line breaks between each rotation button link. Some of the buttons break onto the next line when the cursor hovers over the buttons. Although the copyright symbol is used for the site copyright, it isn’t used for the brush credits, which should have used the copyright symbol as well. You need to be consistent.
Now to the second column. Why are all the webpage review links text links except for Devious Reviews? Again keep things consistent. The ‘Submit Graphics’ link should be moved up and below ‘Terms of Use’. Links that are alike should always be grouped together. It should be “Pre-made Layouts”. Pre, which is a prefix, is defined as: earlier, before, prior to; preparatory, preliminary; in advance; or in front of. “Before-layout” is not a word.

Abstracts
The skin links should be displayed at the top of this column and not halfway down. It makes more sense to allow your visitors to know that there are more than one skin to choose from, and that choice should be given upon entering the site. The text Crystal Phoenix Design breaks onto the next line overlapping the next sibling link. Tomorrow’s Deception also breaks onto two lines. The right padding to this entire column is inconsistent with the left padding.
Finally, the main content column. There is no need to provide a forum link in the introduction because directly below is a huge graphic link to the forum. There is no need to double link, and the graphic link already overshadowed the text link. Since there is so much empty space in this column, it wouldn’t hurt to include more than one update entry on the homepage. Let’s say about three or four. By having more than one, it allows your visitors to track when and often you update. The comments form (to each update) should be left aligned to match the rest of the page’s format/setup. It will allow the entire ‘remember me/forget me’ link to appear together in one line. Remove the title heading to each comment since it is not being used or replace the —- with the poster’s name and date.
The style sheet looks good other than the fact that scrollbar colours only work in IE and not with Firefox, and the content could be simplified. And again, be consistent. Do not use caplocks in one line and lowercase in the next.

The proper way to define nothing that would otherwise be defined in numeric value is 0, not none. HTML wise, some tags included quotations while others didn’t. For example: <a target="_self" href="domain.php?x=hostess" class=nav1>. The use of quotations is recommended, and is good practice especially when you run into extremely long strings. Some links had the target="_self" tag while some links didn’t; in general, it isn’t required. The remainder of the code looks good although it is really confusing to look at, much less to edit. I suggest reading up on various tutorials on using tables to format your layouts rather than divider layers in absolute positions. The table format would probably reduce the coding by a quarter, and the coding would be more organized and easier to edit.
The organization for layout version 8.2 is a little better, but for the most part, the same mistakes are being made. The skin options should be up at the top of the navigation column, not at the bottom. The information beneath the counter should be centered. The ‘Submit Graphics’ links is missing. Your visitors will not be able to read the individual section titles if you used white text on a white background. Go for the violet background colour (used in the navigation column) as the text colour. Webpage review links are missing. Contest winners announcement should be placed in the navigation column instead of in the main content/update area. The welcome heading background and content does not stretch to the full width of the section. There is approximately five more pixels to the right that is not being put to good use. The credits should be placed in the footer or at the bottom of the navigation column. Brush credits are missing from this skin, while the link to the host and skin script are missing from version 8.1. Click here to see what I would have done.
Content
Even though I am attracted to the site by the layout, I am not so sure after reading the introduction. The introduction paragraph is not fluid, ideas are all over the place, and some of the content and sentences doesn’t make sense. For example, you did not design this website for anime and celebrity; it is an anime and celebrity website. Try re-organizing the paragraph to something like this:
“Crescent-Wings.NET is an anime and celebrity graphics and resource website owned by Resha. CW.net opened on March 10, 2008, and has been growing steadily. CW.net offers a variety of graphics such as pre-made layouts, wallpapers, avatars and more, and resources such as graphic and web design tutorials. Please do not forget to sign the Guestbook or leave a message on the tagboard. We love to hear your opinions, comments, suggestions and feedback regarding Crescent-Wings.NET. Enjoy your stay.”
The following links need to be updated:
- Rotations - Not Caramello Exchange, Gemini Moon, Not Twilight Exchange
- Rotations - The Chika icon and Dark Mousy button are missing links.
- Contest Winners - Kathy, Michelle
- Siblings - Glam Ladies, InuPuppy Chow
- Affiliates - Angelic Serenity
Some of these links opened in new window browsers while some opened in the same window browser. Check the target values.
Domain
About Domain - There is no need to separate About Crescent-Wings.net from History. It coincides with each other, so move the sentence about where the domain was bought to appear after the history paragraph. Again, ideas are all over the place. Compare the following paragraph to the one provided at the site.
Crescent-Wings.net was purchased in October 2007 but the actual website was not launched until early 2008. Though Xanvas and Resha’s blog were already open by November 2007. (We’re talking about the graphic site here, who cares about your blogs? It is irrelevant.) Crescent-Wings.net is a joint project between Resha, also known as Dark Princess, and Xanvas. It took Resha a lot nagging at Xanvas before Xanvas agreed to purchase the domain from Bluehost.com.
The little snippet about Resha’s previous website belongs to the staff profile page, not the site’s history.
Hosting - From this point forward, I will only be commenting on the content and minor spelling mistakes. The entire site is ridiculed with poor elementary writing skills that would require too much time to edit, and that is not within my responsibilities. Rule #9 is a repeat and contradicts rule #5. Rules #16 is more or less a repeat of rule #3. If a hostee is accepted, s/he is not getting a friend, but two friends, Resha and Xanvas. Try to speak in the third persona in case visitors don’t know who is ‘me’. The link to the hosting application form should be at the bottom of the page after the information about accepted sites and what is offered in the hosting package. There are no problems with the form; it looks great.
Hostesses - You are the hostess, your website is the host and these people who applied for hosting are your hostees. This is common knowledge among web designers. “Apart of Crescent Wings” mean that Problem Corner is separate from CW.net but, on the other hand, “a part of Crescent Wings” mean that Problem Corner is a section of CW.net. Be careful with your wording as a simple word can create a different meaning from what is intended.
Site Reviews - Both internal and external links are working. I honestly don’t know why you applied for a review at Sweet Emotion. What I am reading is not considered a review. It is a brief summary of your layout and nothing else, which is useless and pointless. I hope you’ll be able to grasp more from this review.
Past Layouts - I would have been nice if additional information are provided for each archived layout and the layout could be viewed in full size. Additional information include: name of layout, type of layout, date/duration during its usage, and designer.
Contact Page - The form looks organized although the input and textarea fields are not aligned properly to the right. Specifying the same input size so that it aligns correctly makes the whole page look more organized. For example, check out this form.
Neither the forum or guestbook was reviewed.
Site
Admin - Do not include this link in the main navigation field. It is stupid for your visitors to click on this link and be brought to internal site login pages. Now hackers know where the login pages are and will have an easier time trying to hack in. These pages should be bookmarked in your browser.
FAQ - You are one person, a ‘webmistress’ and ‘web designer’. Web designers is plural and used when the referred subject/noun is more than one. Question 3 should be linked to the About Domain page if you plan to provide an explanation on how you came up with the website’s name. Question 4 should be linked to the Hosting page.
It appears that many people no longer understand what ‘frequently’ means. Frequently asked questions are questions that are asked more often than others such as question 1, 4, 5, 9, 11, 12, etc. It is provided on the site to provide answers before the question is asked by the next visitor. If the question is not there, then the visitor may email the webmistress. However, I highly doubt question 16 is a frequently asked question. Just because a question was asked once, it doesn’t warrant itself as a ‘frequently’ asked question and should not be posted on this page.
Staff - Text size and colour was not specified for the table holding the basic stats of each staff member, so the text is big and white. If Resha is going to be attending University, I assume she has to be at least 17 or 18 years old? If she is, that is a shock to me. I have deduced from the quality of the writing that this website was created by a girl between 11 and 14 years old. I sure hope you brush up on your writing skills soon because you won’t survive in University with such poor skills. Resha’s last three avatars will not load. Check the URL. Information is missing from x7, Hikari, Hoshiko, and Usagi’s profile pages. These two pages should be completed as soon as possible. I am also surprised at Kit’s poor writing skills as well, considering she is in her last year of University “Patience is thy key”.
Thanks Page - I certainly like your thanks graphics but again, you didn’t earn each one of those hits legitimately. They were earned through cheating. I don’t agree with that.
Hall of Fame - What is so special about this page that it warrants a custom-made banner graphic when the others page don’t? I don’t think the banner is required. A link to the previous Angelic Contest would be helpful for new visitors to know why those winners won and how did they win. If it was a graphic contest, as a visitor, I enjoy looking through archived contest entries. The same goes for the Guess the Character challenges. The links to Kathy, Michelle (Angelic Contest Winners) and Artistic Desire (Guess 02: Sohma Yuki) are broken.
Contests Joined - This section only makes sense if you link to the actual contest page versus the main homepage. Some of the ‘current contests’ are a little outdated and need to be moved to past contests. The links to Faded Designs’ SOTM contest, Eternal-Cloud’s SOTM contest, and the photobucket image URL for Animeahare’s SOTM contest are broken.
Awards/Gifts - For the most part, this page is very organized. However, I don’t understand why there are a few larger award graphics that were displayed on the page while all others were linked by text. The links to All Around Site Award and Neverending Anime’s Participation Awards did not open in a new window browser like the other award links. The links to Kakumei Designs, Hyuu Designs, Otaku Tenshi, and Artistic Desire are broken. The link to No Such Thing’s Participation Award is broken, and the info is missing the date. The Summer Gift received from Shadow Fire is missing a link and the date.
Credits - This page is so confusing. I can’t figure out if this page is a credits page or a links page. I suggest using this page solely for credit links and have them separated by categories. Links exchanges, loved, listed at, and links should appear on a separate ‘links’ page separated into the four categories. It’ll look more organized since right now line breaks are also distributed unevenly all over the page.
- CSS editor, graphic editor and browser credits fall under Programs.
- Not linked correctly/Broken links: Coffeecup FTP, Microsoft FrontPage 2003, Aethereality (Images), AnimePaper, Endless-Rain.org, Potaato.org, Plugboard, Beloved Melody, Cutenews Tutorials, Saraphin
- Linked twice under same category: Cutenews (Programs)
- Links without new browser tag: Animeshare (Tutorials), Necades.com, Phong.com, Photoshopcafe, Blinding-light, Inobscuro.com, Oxoniensis-art.net, Potaato.org, Hybrid Genesis, Reminiscent Designs, Animeshare (Fonts)
I also noticed that links are not in any particular order, and some are repetitive due (ie. Aethereality and Animeshare) because of its overlap in images, brushes, and tutorials. I suggest listed all links other than Scripts and Programs, under a general heading in alphabetical order.
For Link Exchanges, choose either graphic linkage or text linkage; do not do both. It looks messy, unprofessional, and is waste of space. Linkage was very inconsistent. A little more than half the links opened in a new window browser while the rest of the links opened in the same window. Make sure you check these links regularly as many sites have either moved or are closed (there are seven). Quintessence was linked incorrectly.
The Loved and Links pages either do not exist or are linked incorrectly, which happens to be a hobby of yours. The Listed At page looks great and the links work properly. This is what the Link Exchanges page should look like.
Link In - Very pretty linkware graphics. Three problems: 1) the page does not provide an URL for visitors to link back to, 2) the link to Michelle is broken, and 3) the 468×60 banners are obviously wider than the page. I suggest displaying a small thumbnail version on this page, linked to the original file.
Link Out - See suggestions and errors under ‘Credits’.
Interactive
Plugboard - I don’t see a use for this page since there are already five different types of links pages in the last section. The first link and button image is broken. The last link was moved.
Guess the Anime - This is a cute section although I don’t find it particularly challenging (since I am familiar with the anime series). The form needs a little bit of re-coding. Not all the cells specified a (correct) text colour and size.
Guess the Character - Comments are the same as Guess the Anime.
Tutorials
HTML - The thumbnail images should be removed since it serves no purpose. Instead, link the tutorials to the tutorial title. The HTML Basics is not even a tutorial. Had I been a beginner, the only thing I would have learned from this “tutorial” is the name of a few programs that are most often used for HTML coding. The beginnings of a proper HTML source is provided with no explanation so I wouldn’t have been able to deduce what it means. Not to mention, the basics only included the beginning three lines and nothing else. This “tutorial” should be renamed to “HTML opening tags”. Refer to this article at EchoEcho for a proper way to write a tutorial on HTML Basics.
The link to the tutorial on Drop-Down Menu is not working properly. The tutorial on Email Form is plagiarism. You’re not providing a proper HTML coding that uses the host’s server to send emails, but rather Freedback’s free coding. This needs to be removed immediately. You need to provide an example of how the toolbar will look like if visitors decide to try out your code for an embedded music file. There is also a table cell tag that was not properly closed following the tutorial, and there are two different font sizes used in this tutorial. As for the Pop-Up tutorial, an explanation for all the other options other than the window sizes needs to be provided. In addition, the pop-up example needs to be updated as the link is broken.
Adobe Photoshop - The same comment about the thumbnail image applies here. If you are really persistent about a thumbnail image, I suggest a thumbnail preview of the tutorial’s finished product. The alignment on each page needs to be corrected, specifically the left margin. I don’t understand the Blending Images tutorial. It is confusing and I can’t figure out whether the tutorial is trying to teach me how to blend images or to extract the image from its natural background. The only image helper provided only added to the confusion. I suggest providing image helpers to each step to prevent confusion. Present Manager is spelt incorrectly in the Install Brushes tutorial; should be Preset Manager. The links to How to Install Patterns and How to make Brushes and Patterns are swapped around.
PHP - The link to the PHP Introduction tutorial does not work. The How to Convert HTML to PHP tutorial is misleading. I figure it would include the whole works on how to divide a HTML source into pieces/sections, convert them each into PHP files, and how to piece them back together as webpage by PHP include. People generally don’t need a tutorial content to teach them what type of file extension to use to save a file. The PHP Include tutorial is not linked. If this page is not up and running, remove the link. The same comment about the thumbnail images also applies here.
Miscellaneous - The How to Install Fonts tutorial is such as useless here. Typically, websites like Free Fonts and DaFont have instructions on how to install the fonts. In addition, your method of saving fonts is tedious. Why not just extract the .ttf file in the Fonts folder to begin with to save the extra hassle of four additional steps?
Reviews
For a second, I wasn’t too sure if this section was about reviews Crescent Wings has received or anime reviews. To prevent confusion, please rename the section as Anime Reviews or rather Anime Synopsis since the description provided on each page is more or less a very brief summary of the series, and nothing review like. A review typically has more basic information (i.e. genre, producer, # of episode, release date, Japanese title (if applicable), rating) and a critical analysis of the series in general. Click here for an example. The image are also too big and does not depict the main characters and genre of the anime. The submission page also needs some work, since the entire page of five sentences is ridiculed with grammar errors and a spelling error.
Misc
Downloads - Since these Fonts are available at legitimate free font sites and elsewhere, what is the point of coming here to download them? It makes more sense to download them from the legitimate websites where there is less chance of me getting a computer virus. It is nice that credit is given where due but I find it useless to offer common fonts that are available everywhere else. You may want to add a line break following the download link and statistic to help visitors distinguish if which font the download link applies to (currently, it looks as though the download link is for the font previewed below it).
I am not too fond of MP3 Rotation either since these files can be found most anywhere, and there is no guarantee that you will update them once a week or monthly (which is it?) or that the listener will follow your instructions to delete after 24 hours and purchase the legitimate copy.
The Programs/Scripts page is also just as useless. These programs are easily downloadable from the original website. By zipping the files and offering them for free download at your site (whether the program is freeware or otherwise) is prohibited by copyright laws. You should definitely check into that or you may get yourself some civil lawsuits if they feel up to it. The link to EasyPHP is not working. The description for MidConverter does not tell me what type of files I can convert my MIDI’s to. The sentence in the introduction does not make sense. At all.
Make sure that the title on the PHP Scripts page reflects PHP Scripts and not just ‘Scripts’. I like this page much more because it follows the correct credit system. However, some descriptions are missing. For example, you use Family Tree for your family (collective?) site but what exactly is it? There is no description for Page Password Protector. There is a spelling mistake in the description for Simple Machine Forum.
Readings - This entire section needs to be removed, for three reasons. 1) You should not be writing articles and giving your opinions to others when you’re not doing what you’re preaching. You advise that people should have their website at 90% completion before opening it and should not have any broken links, yet this site has tons of broken links, both internal and external links. You advise that layouts should be easy to follow and user-friendly yet yours is not as user-friendly as you think and there is way too much scrolling. 2) The articles and tutorials are ridiculed with spelling mistakes and grammar mistakes. Do you honestly think your readers will take you seriously if you can’t even put your thoughts in a coherent order and spell properly? I highly doubt it. For instance, “Is the pages consistent?” “Is there any contents?” The word ‘is’ is singular yet the subject is provided in its plural form. 3) Three of the five articles were taken from other websites. That is plagiarism and is subject to a civil lawsuit. And there is no need to come to your website to read them when again, they are available at the original location.
You need to include a brief sentence on the Color Dreams page about the validity of these statements as they may not be true at all times, and are meant solely for amusement/entertainment. In addition, your perception of color is a little off. The cloud color for ‘beige’ is actually light grey, the cloud color for ‘brown’ is khaki (a cross between beige and light brown), and the style and font size of the colour word in each bubble/cloud is inconsistent, which contradicts what is being conveyed in the previous article.
“Click the name color to get a read on that particular color.” There are so many problems with this sentence that I don’t know where to start. To make it simpler, replace it with “Click on the name of your favourite colour to learn your personality.” Blue-Green does not expand. The link provided at the bottom of the page needs to be coded without the heading background.
You forgot to mention in the How to Get More Hits article that you can play cheater by displaying your counter on every single page of the website as Crescent Wings has done. The link to Pisces on the Horoscope article is broken because both the horoscope name on the page and in the link are spelled wrong.
Poetry - I am not much of a poetic person either so I can’t comment on your poems. However, you may want to check the coding on each page as a portion of each poem is indented, the font colour for Life is white instead of black, and most important peotries is spelled wrong. The ‘e’ and ‘o’ are reversed, and the word ‘poetry’ is both singular and plural.
Designs
Terms of Use - The alignment for the bullet list needs to be corrected and the terms needs to be checked over for grammar mistakes, otherwise they are pretty straight-forward.
Pre-Layouts - See above for comments on title. I thought the whole point of a graphic/resource site was for the webmaster to provide graphics that he/she has designed. I don’t understand why this section is a collection of layouts made by anyone and everyone. It doesn’t have consistency. I may like a particular style that was created by a fan, but there is information on the artist other than a name such as an email address or site URL to help me get in contact. A graphic site should be known for its type and style of graphics, yet Crescent Wings is going to have a hard time trying to build a reputation this way. I am going to assume that newest layouts are displayed up top in descending order. You may want to make a note of this on the page for visitors.
I did not review each layout extensively but I have compiled a list of general comments:
- #29 - The link to the pop-up window (of actual layout) is broken.
- #25 - The header is not aligned with the margins of the main/content background.
- #21 - The entire layout is misaligned.
- #18 - The ‘enter?’ text is not linked (remove if you do not plan on linking this).
- #17 - The ‘enter?’ text is not linked (remove if you do not plan on linking this). The navigation links are misaligned.
- #11 - The left margin of the bullet listing needs to be corrected.
- #1 - You should specify some padding in the table cells so that text and images are not jumbled right next to the cell border.
On a general note, you (and have your fan submissions) may want to consider using high quality scans for layouts that encompass a larger workspace. Stretching small and low quality images will only make the layout look worse (quality-wise) because it becomes grainy and blurry.
PNGs - Crescent Wings would be my last choice for transparent PNGs for three reasons. 1) The images are small such as #26. How would I be able to use the images if I was to make a 1600×1200 wallpaper? 2) The images are not of high quality scans such as #23. Look at the girl’s knees. There are dots/splotches on her kneecaps and dots/splotches on the guy’s sweater near his waist. 3) The extractions are poorly done such as #27. Look at the edges; they’re choppy, undefined, and the overall quality is bad. Don’t use the excuse that the original image is suppose to represent a sketch, because it doesn’t explain why the pixel border over her visor is missing, the bottom piece of her foot is missing, the ribbon is abruptly cut off on the left, the border around her fist is really choppy (un-sketch-like), the border around the frills in her top on the left is also choppy, and there is a black dot against the white background in the area after the ribbon and her shoes meet. The link to #24 is broken, and the previews also do not capture the gist of the whole image.
Avatars - You need to distinguish that the anime series pages contain 50×50 avatars. To prevent duplicating avatars, I would, 1) separate the pages according to artists and then separate each artist page by headings to indicate either size or series; or 2) separate the pages according to sizes but display the avatars in a table format so that additional information about the avatar (series, character, artist) can be provided below. For general pages like celebrities, others, and 60×160, include a title="___" tag to provide information about the avatar such as series or celebrity name.
Forum Sets - When I read Forum Sets, I expected layouts for forums. Then I thought maybe a set like avatar and signature. Boy, am I wrong. Make sure you specify what forum sets really are, else stick all these in pages like signatures, banners, splash images, or miscellaneous signs.
Wallpapers - Why are these files zipped? Honestly, all you need to do is link the actual image file (whether it be .jpg, .gif or .png) to a new window browser, and instruct visitors to right click on the image and scroll down to ’set as wallpaper’. You zip the files to make the downloading process so complicated but there are no instructions on what to do after the file finished downloading. The quality of some of these wallpapers are not up to par to be wallpapers. They’re grainy, blurry and choppy around the edges. However, I like the backgrounds to the wallpapers. They provide nice solid bases. The three wallpapers have broken links for both resolutions:#35, #34, #23, and #4 (1024×768).
Abstracts - The only abstract provided is very nice. I like the style and texture. Is there a title for this like you have for the layouts and wallpapers?
Submit Graphics - “Designs aka Layouts”? Designs refer to everything, not just layouts. Check the Online Webster dictionary if you are unclear. The rest of the page is disorganized and incoherent. This page needs to be re-written so that, 1) the message being conveyed is done in an organized manner, 2) the message is clear of misspellings and grammar mistakes, and 3) rules pertaining to each type of graphic is separate from general instructions on how to submit graphics such as rules as to where to email and what to include in the email.
Request
Information - The page title is misleading. I was thinking that the page will contain a form where visitors can request for information. Perhaps you should rename the page to ‘Graphics Request’ and move that under the Designs section. The rules (or information) on this page needs to be re-written. Again, it is ridiculed with grammar mistakes and is incoherent. A link should be provided at the bottom of this page to the form. It is stupid and tedious to ask your visitors to scroll down the long site layout to find the proper link in the navigation menu for the form.
Form - What happens if the form doesn’t work? You should provide information on alternative ways to contact you in case the form fails. You may also want to explain which information is mandatory and what the asterisk represent. A form similar to this one should be provided for Submit Graphics.
Final Statement
To be frank, this graphic/resource site is one of the worst I have seen. There is a lack of coherency, consistency and style. The site has poor organization, poor grammar and poor spelling. The graphics are mediocre though tipping on the poor side, and the resources are nil. The only thing that I would be able to walk away from the site with is a few interactive activities that may keep me occupied for a few minutes, and avatars. You should take your own advise to heart (Checklist for Structure and Layout). Put the site on hiatus and do a revamp. Otherwise, at the rate you’re going, Crescent Wings won’t sustain very long.
