it was a really popular show when we were youngr. Pokeyman was a kid who travelled around putting animals into his balls. i know it sounds weird but was pretty good. wish i new what happened to it, it totally disappeared and noone on the internet has heard of it.

 

Spoiler

Just my little joke. Actual point is I started a Pokémon episode reviews blog and I'd like some feedback if anyone would be so kind. My main problems so far are:

 

- I wish I could align center the header and blog description just below it.

- wondering if the colour scheme and image works for people.

- text formatting, yeesh. Does it look alright to people?

- Is it well written or unclear/garbled?

 

This is really beta stuff, as I've only published two reviews so far and I'm a HTML noob. But I hope it can be a longer term thing. Thanks for the help!

I remember pokeyman!

I can't get down with the color scheme.

 

You're rocking robin's egg blue, cool yellow titles, dark slate blue subtitles, and white text, all wrapped by a Gameboy-colored, very visually busy border. The game screen you chose doesn't really add anything, either, considering it's just empty, highly repetitive landscape.

 

The text itself is alright. Your header looks empty, full of negative space. I don't know if Lobster is a font I find fitting to Pokemon, but the body text is okay. Consider a serif font, though, since this is fairly reading-intensive.

 

This is just an aside, but who's your audience for episode reviews of a show that probably isn't being aired on television these days?

Well, I changed the colours a bit and worked out how to centre the headers. I'll probably keep tweaking it for a while.

 

As for not having an audience, I don't mind. This is just a way to amuse myself when I have some spare time.
