A friend of ours was running a reviews site and we submitted to it for them. Below is the results of the critque. You will notice that we have taken her ideas to heart. Special thanks to Kat for taking time out to review this site!

Artistic Reviews - Critique by Kat

Splash 4/5 - The splash is good. The graphic comes from the layout. I personally always like it when the two match. The colors all go. Having the fanlisting buttons and review buttons below doesn't quite go so much, but I understand that's the best place to put them. As time goes by and you get more you could maybe put them in little pop up windows with the links below the splash

Name 5/5 - 'The Sweet Shop' I love the play on her last name, Sweetin. Original and cool :)

Layout 14/15 - Fabulous and unique. The colors all work together which is great. The load time is a little slow but the wait is worth it!

Updates 14/15 - A couple of updates a week, very good, will keep people coming back for more! Having a contact e-mail address after them is also a good idea :)

Content 18/20 - A great selection of content! My favorite is the sound bytes, the Hook up section. And the Rainbow locks is absolutely awesome! The 'store' section is done very well. Maybe some more interactive things with the guests could make the sight even more fun, though they do take some time to maintain.

Interactivity 13/15 - You have the hook up page, and the Fan profiles, dream on (where people can submit dreams), you also have a guestbook which is great. There's an offsite link to the sweetin.com message board. It's a reasonable collection. I would have maybe liked a little more but it's still good :)

Originality 18/20 - There aren't many Jodie sites left on the net and this ones really great. The names original, you have some cool original pages like the 'rainbow locks' which is So cool! I'd love to see more things like that :)

Code 5/5 - Easy as easy to find! Right on the splash page!

Overall = 91%

Comments: I absolutely love this site! It's seriously awesome! And ran by some truly dedicated fans, considering the fact that Jodie Sweetin isn't acting anymore. I know how frustrated I get with my olsen site when a few weeks go by without any news. So keeping the site up all this time, and updating it, bringing in many visitors, and providing an awesome fun place for people to find out about an amazing actress is totally admirable! I know I'll be coming back to the site often!

Advice - I don't think a review is complete without a little advice. Even when the site is really great as it is. For your site maybe some games would be cool. Like puzzles (you can make some Jodie ones at jigzone.com), maybe some interactive sections, where people can express their opinion on something about Jodie on Full House. These pages can take a bit of time to maintain though. Maybe a section for some polls would be easier. But the site is still totally cool as it is. Keep up the great work!
