2 February 2008 - "OhLush.net"

I recently stumbled upon OhLush.net and was horrified at what I saw. Take a look at this screenshot:

What on earth could have possessed the owner of this website to make a layout like this, especially since she is a straight woman? Well, it’s not even as if had she been a man/lesbian this would have been any better.

Firstly, that layout makes her website look like it’s going to be a porn site. This will lead to many horny teenage boys being very disappointed and consequently committing suicide. It immediately gives whatever unlucky soul who stumbles across her “website” the wrong idea, although it is a lovely warning sign to people like me to not even bother reading her blog or looking through her content because if she can make a layout like that, there must be something wrong with her.

Secondly, right align? What the hell! Give me one example when a layout aligned to the right ever looked good. I thought not. It’s not even that it’s right aligned but is quite clearly suffering from weborexia. White space– sorry, pink space– much? And as for the font, I doubt that Georgia is readable in any size font, never mind size 7.5pt!

I honestly think that this site has one of the worst pornographic themes I have seen all 2008. I can’t think what have got into the owner of this website to even make this theme; it just makes it impossible for me to take her seriously. That being said, if she did have a somewhat decent layout, a scan of her blog would confirm the fact that all is not right in her head.

Anyway, new photography up. Go and take a look!



31 January 2008 - "FINALLY, I’m back!"

Well, I will apologise for seriously neglecting this site for the past three weeks, I have actually been a lot better for quite a while but have been caught up in life. I totally failed the blogathon challenge but I do pledge to blog at least three times a week in February. Hopefully I’ll blog more than that, like practically every day but a minimum of three times a week ought to be a suitable guideline.

I also plan to start taking more photographs for my photography section because I’m really not happy with the pictures I have up at the minute. I already have a few new pictures to put up, my favourite of which being this one:

Anyway, I think that now that the first month of 2008 is over, I have a pretty good idea of how the rest of the year is going to go. Asides from being really ill twice in January, it has actually been a really good month. I’ve been going out lots and lots and have found myself a lot closer to my friends. How has the first month of your 2008 been?
