dontstay's Bio
My name is Jessica, I own and maintain both dont-stay.com (personal blog) and p5hng.com (hosting domain). I have a boyfriend, HJ, of three years now. I have two 1/2 cats - I say 1/2 because one is only half mine. :) I have been doing webdesign for a good portion of about seven years now, and I am self-taught. No Frontpage or WYSIWYG editors for me!

I am OBSESSED with Mini Chewy Sweetarts and Green Apple Airheads; my soda of choice is Cherry Coke. :D I love Linkin Park and will be a die-hard fan until the day I die. Other music interests include (but are not limited to) Adema, Three Days Grace, Finger Eleven, Skillet, primeSTH, Strata... The list goes on.

I use Mozilla FireFox and I will not switch browsers just to view a website "properly". I also use the resolution 1152x864 , which is only ONE step up from 1024x768, so don't try saying "omg nobody uses that resolution who cares if my site looks like poo in it", because a LOT more people use my resolution (and higher) than you think. :P

I like simplicity, interesting blogs, mature content, easy to read (as in, font size, colors and line-height), and browser compatibility. Contrary to popular belief, I am NOT a coding nazi nor am I an IE-hater, though I DO use FireFox and respect a site a lot more if their coding is correct and is compatible in more than one browser. If it looks nice for me, then I like it :D

dontstay Dislikes
Browser-specific layouts - sites that are ONLY coded for one browser. I also hate layouts with over-rated or over-used celebrities on them. Grunge is cool, but over-done, and tiny text really sucks and hurts my eyes to read. Oh, yeah, and using the chroma filter to try to make transparent iframes and the incorrect use of iframes (when PHP and DIVs would work a lot better) REALLY annoys me. :) I also dislike reading blogs that ramble on about daily-life stuff that I really don't care about or have any interest in. Hmm.. and HUGE images, and layouts that look like poo or repeat in higher resolutions. ADDED: If you're a "colorized scrollbar" nazi (ie: every site you comment on you say "the scrollbars need to be colorized") then you need to be shot. Seriously.

Thanks for the review... I'm quite flattered! :D

Hey! Thanks for the review on my site! A lot of your ideas helped out a lot... o_O I'm a CSS failure so your suggestions (and site) helped a lot! So, hopefully it will work in most browsers now! =D I'm working on a new layout right now that will have the navigation outside of the main iframe - I had just slipped it in there because I wasn't sure how much content I was going to have... Again! Thanks! Rockon.

haha, believe it or not, I wasn't talking about vortex =P I was talking about this really small board with only about 10 active members *sigh* I don't think action will be taken...

Just thought I'd tell you my site now looks better in Mozilla! Someone else fixed it for me. (Since you told me about the links css and everything) I still have the popups though. :-( Thanks for the review again! :-)

Thanks for reveiwing my page. It's really strange because the errors don't show up for me. I tried fixing them on what information you gave me. Could you maybe send me a screenshot? Thanks :) -Loca

Thank you very much for your review! :-) I have a question about it and I hope you don't mind me asking it here: Oh, I have a question I looked at that css link, and looked at my css on the main page and the text is justified. Maybe I put it in the wrong place? And about the A thing where you said I put the colors with the A: Active etc.. and not with A: where does A: go? Sorry if I sound stupid. Oh, one more thing about the side bar text being bigger in Mozilla. Why does it do that? It's the same font and everything in the css.

All people under 13 should be banned from yoursite.nu. Okay, maybe not all, but they should have to go through a rigorous personality test. Because they're pissing me the fuck off.
- thundercake (Sent 11/29/2008)
Wow, people are being bitter pricks to you. I've encountered a few myself. I know it can be absolutely enraging, but don't let them get you down. You've given your honest opinion to a lot of people and if they can't take that, they shouldn't be here in the first place.

she's a robot in disguise, li ;) And I'm still so annoyed by your low rating. It just pisses me off. Oh, and congratz on winning the competition, even though it was awhile ago ^_^

I'm digging the new default layout... 881 reviews, christ, child, do you SLEEP?!

CONGRADULATIONS ON YOUR DOMAIN WINNING ^^! I can't keep up >>. School and all xP!

hey jessica, i've just downloaded mozilla. things don't really get chopped off like you said but the links are all on default colour. thanks for your review anyway. i would have stuck with IE but mozilla's nice too.

lol, I have noticed that sometimes people are mean to others, just because everyone else seems to like them or their site or something about them so much. It's like... "They don't deserve all this praise, I'm going to bash them!" boo.
- Nell (Sent 11/29/2008)
Ehh, people are being total jerks to you because you're incredibly popular : ) It's funny that the ones who can't spell 'your' have really crappy coding and retaliate. : ) Taaa! *spongebob laugh*
