5/5 LOADING.
Loaded really quickly.

3/10 FIRST IMPRESSION.
I got a really bad first impression. The main layout made me thing that much work didn't go into it, 
it looked to me as it was just thrown together. It looked like everything was just thrown here and there. 

15/25 LAYOUT AND SPLASH.
Your splash is a little plain; maybe add a little colour to go with the image. Unlike the rest of your layouts, 
I don't think the main one is that spectacular. It does scream "original," however. It wouldn't look that bad if 
the background was different, it doesn't really match the layout. It pops out and catches the eye really easily 
(the background). Remember, it's called the "back"ground, not the "fore"ground. The green border around the main 
image doesn't look that great either. I liked how each of your sections all had their own individual layouts. 
Your layouts are all quite original. I have never seen anything quite like them before. Normally, your layouts 
wouldn't really appeal to me, but just the way you have them... I don't know, it makes me sort of like them. 
I've always said I liked originality, and yours are definitely original. Some of them look a little thrown together, 
but it seems that you go for this whole "grunge" look and it seems that grunge layouts are thrown together half the 
time anyways. It's hard to read the words on the 'art is hard' page. Perhaps make the images in the background a 
little darker? Overall, I like most of your layouts, except for the main one. 

20/25 CONTENT.
I like your writing content; it's all solid and well written. There isn't that much content, which lowers the rating, 
but with the content that there is, it's all good. I found that Theda Bera page interesting. I like the mix tapes 
content too, good music. 

5/5 NAVIGATION.
Navigation all in the right menu, very easy to use.

13/15 ERRORS.
I didn't find any broken image/link errors. On your writings page (as well as a few others), there are a few 
spelling errors, "shirtsl," "thirft," nothing major. 

6/10 UPDATES.
I guess your updates are frequent; you only update when there is an update to announce, as in a new layout, etc. 
Your updates aren't that long or interesting, but there isn't much to say about a new section, layout, error, etc.

5/5 LINK BACK.
Found easily.

3/5 BONUS.
I like your AIM buddy icons. Also bonus points for originality, it isn't every day you come across a site named "Murder."

0/0 MY PERSONAL OPINION.
I must admit, your site really creeped me out. Of course, as a reviewer, I didn't let that bias my opinion. 
I really liked the originality on your site. I suggest that you fix up the main layout with a new background 
that isn't so eye-catching as the one you currently have. Just wondering on a sideline, does your host allow you 
to have pictures of bondage? That just concerned me a little bit, as many hosts don't permit things like that on a site.
I also think that maybe you should add some more interaction besides a guestbook would be a nice thing to see.
