Janitsu's Aesthetics Reviewing Café





Yes, you read it right. I am here to review the aesthetics and readability of your guides!


So, most of you already know me, but for those who do not:
I am a Finnish boy who is studying in an upper secondary school in Finland. I can speak Swedish, Finnish, English, French and German (some more fluently than others) and I consider myself as a veteran guidemaker on mobafire.com due to having several guides on the top seat of 'em all. I am also known as a veteran here and MobaFire and as a member on SmiteFire. I think this is a good length for an introduction.


So basically my reviews would be about the aesthetic part of the guide. This includes:
  • Coding
  • Usage of images
  • The ways to present the information
  • Readability
  • The grammar and spelling

And there are probably some that I can't think as of right now. I do understand that you doubt my skills when it comes to the grammar and spelling, but I assure you that I can notice the major flaws in your written English.

I will use a scoring system. I will give 30 points in total. 15 for readability, 10 for coding and usage of images and 5 for other aesthetic bits n bobs. This way I can easily translate the scores in to a grade and give you a school grade (I will use the Finnish one which is basically all the numbers from 4 to 10 with +/-/������½ marks). I will later on make a list which shows what which grade basically means.

With the score I will also give you a description of any length. Some things do not need a lengthy description for the score, because something like: "Horrible. Simply disgusting. Learn to write English" is rather descriptive (positive example would be: "I didn't notice any major mistakes"). If the author wants me to elaborate, I will elaborate. I will answer him via PMs or in the comment section.


NOTICE: EVEN IF I DO NOT REVIEW IMMEDIATELY, DO NOT COME ASKING FOR IT BEFORE A WEEK HAS GONE BY!

i don't know how to feel about the fact that nobody gave a **** about this thread for three months, and then suddenly we get a completely unrelated comment from a first time poster.
