Krystal Light (review)

Krystal Light, a fansite by the Fontmaster, Dragonpaw!!
So with the contest over, I finally have a little time to catch up on reviewing all the sites that popped up because of it. :) First on my list is going to be Krystal Light. The first thing I have to say is that it is so BRIGHT and TWINKLY! :) Not to my personal taste (I like subdued neutrals, can you tell?), but it is very well done. The first thing I thought when I looked at the site was "Oh, great . . .can't see the navigation on such a dark twinkly background." But in true Pawy style, the links become highlighted in, what else?, rainbow as you hover over them - making them very easy to read. And, as the self-proclaimed Font Master on Zetapets, she has excellent font making tutorials on her page as well as a very elaborate general forum tutorial. I would have liked to see some images of what the various font codes do (especially since I can't actually see them on the forums because of my borwser *grins*). I also love Pawy's avatars that she created. And I love seeing all those images hosted on tinypics and other image servers! :)

The forums are as bright and cheery and rainbowy as the rest of the site, and I like the continuity of that. They also seem to be a nice place to hang out with various boards for RP, showing off artwork, and general chatting.

So the bad points? One big one, you need to place the copyright notice on every page you have anything zetapets-related on, not just the first one. :) Other than that, there are not too many bad points for this site: some spelling errors that could be fixed, some excess space that could be removed, and I think the linkback button coding is buggy (I had to grab it by looking at the page source). Oh, and UPDATE your NEWS! :) You've done so much work on the site, you need to mark it down.

One paw up for now, to be two once the copyright notice is placed everywhere. Great job Pawy!
