This is a "Game of Thrones" Open in new Window. review!



Hello, GERVIC!

*Checkb*Overall Impression:
What a beautiful forum! Your distinctive style makes every forum unique. It truly feels like a little garden.

*Checkb*Title and Description:
I like both the title and description. They're straightforward, and the reader immediately knows what they're looking at.

*Checkb*Content:
There's a lot going on this page, but you have a real knack for organizing things in an easy-to-follow way. You've got a great grasp on when to add graphics, where to leave white space, and how to lay out the page logically. Your grasp of writingML is one of the best I've ever seen here on WdC.

The graphics, as always, are stunning. You clearly put a lot of thought into the visual aspects of your forums, and it shows.

Offering different levels of review rewards is a clever touch and opens up the opportunity for greater participation. I'm not sure why the forum closed down, but I must say, keeping some of the poetry from contests listed at the bottom is a lovely addition to the format and a nice historical document.

The VIP section is interesting, and I think the 1,000gp fee for posting will keep excess posts to a minimum {as will your other rules). The use of a specific garden reserved for contest winners is great! The review requirements are reasonable, and the rewards are fair for all levels. Ensuring the VIP is guaranteed reviews is a smart way to get people to pay for the perks, and the rewards for the other sections are a great incentive to ensure they get reviewed as well.

*Checkb*Final Thoughts:
I don't think you have a single forum I haven't thoroughly enjoyed. You certainly know how to keep yourself busy, and I hope this forum is brought back for the community to enjoy one day.

Thank you for sharing your work with us!
