Hmmm... The Sailor Moon Garden? [CereCere powers up the old Lawn Mover]
Ok, baby, let's cut some flowers. [evil grin]
First problem I had with this page
was trying to figure out how to get into it. It has the choice between frames and
non-frames, which at first I thought you choose using an image map that didn't
work.
However, you have to use the two text links on either side of the pic which
are not to easy to find right away.
To make them easier to find, move them below
the pic so they stand out more.
Golly gee, don't you hate pages with the annoying
"please enter your name" Java thingy that pops up over and over and over?
Now let's take a look at the content. Wow, I'm going to need the chainsaw,
not the lawnmover. There are several broken links, why? Because just about
all the pics are directly linked to other pages! That is a big no no. Sure, you want
to save space and time with uploading to FTP, but when someone removes a
pic from their site, it ends up broken on yours. Not to mention the fact you're
stealing their material! She even takes the animated logo from the Everchanging
Sailor Moon Gateway, which
says directly below it, "DO NOT TAKE." Now,
for the real shocker, she steals from us! Her
Amazon Garden is taken right from
our own
Dead Moon Circus Page, chopped up, refried and served up in a mess.
Here's the other reason why you shouldn't direct link pics, do you know what
I could do to that
page right now? However, I won't because I'm not that spiteful.
Let me quickly take this space to inform people of our policies on taking material
from
our page. 1) Ask us first, just don't take and ask questions later. 2) If you
manage to get permission, you should credit us AND provide a link to our page.
All pics on this page
were nicely donated and then edited so they are unique
to our page. Thank you. Now back to
your regularly scheduled program...

Another page that insists on putting a zillion things on the main page to
clutter it. We've got rings, searches, banners, and a really odd looking
background image. If I have to 'Enter my name' and be welcomed again,
I'm going to scream. Doing so once is cute, but having to do it everytime
you return to the main page bites. There are several broken picture links.
I'm also wondering about about why the info on just about every page is
credited to someone else. It's okay to refer to other sources, but this page
doesn't seem more than to be a collection of other people's works. Why
not just go to the original source and skip this step? Bah, forget it! I'm not
entering my name again. On to the next page.

On the index page, this looks okay, decent, if you can forget about how oddly
the links are placed. Trusted myself to go to the nonframes page. I made the
mistake of at first not entering some loser name for the Java script; that
turned out to be a big mistake, folks. When you know you're at some loser page,
always go along with the Java, or you'll end up like me- getting a big
fat Java error and having to reset my computer. Living with that mistake, I
continued to put rather ridiculous names in every time the damn message
showed up whenever I reentered the main page...
Let's continue- it takes about five million year to load up the page, which is
crammed with junk and lovely stuff. I played a little game with this: How
many sources can I find that this girl linked directly to? I counted approximately
25, [can you find more?] including several of our honorable mentions and
our own page. Ironic: "all images inhanced by me so don't take any!"
Um... Like, what the hell was enhanced by her? She LINKS directly to
all her pics! The interviews and information were all stolen from other sites,
a million graphics taken, bad information to boot [Erios?], mixing NA SM
with Japanese SM.
HTML WRITERS GUILD? She's part of that? I thought you had to be...
oh, I don't know, DECENT at htmling to even think of joining a group like
that. She doesn't even link to half the pages she steals from, the ultimate
insult.
