While this is not really my first visit here, more like fifth or sixth, the general impression is the same. It’s simple, clean, not boring, somewhat professional. I can’t say it makes me go WOW, but it’s definitely one of those sites that I’d give a chance before hitting the back button. Nevertheless, there are a few elements which make it resemble the default WordPress theme a bit too much.

Just from looking at your design, I can tell I will love your site. Let me just gush about how much I adore the look. Firstly, my favorite color is green. I love how you played on many shades of such a gorgeous color without making the site look monochromatic. The red ladybug truly “pops” out and I think it’s the most darling layout I’ve seen in ages. Your font is large, well-spaced, and easy to read. This also goes for your navigation. I adore the concept and execution of such a cute, well-organized layout! The footer very nicely ties the layout off, however it would have been nice to see different positions of ladybug–it looks like you just copied and pasted the same one over again. Also, your links are larger than your text, ruining the spacing of the text a bit. Regardless, I haven’t seen such a refreshing layout in ages. I love it, if you haven’t guessed that already.

Since you took the time to make four skins, I’ll take the time to review them! But before I do, might I suggest fixing your font size?! It’s really hard to read, actually everything on your site is hard to read… work on making your page a lot more user-friendly!

Version 8, Heroe: Your color scheme is so monochromatic and boring! In attempts to make a pleasing layout, you took no risk with the colors and ended up with something so… blue! I think that for the shade of blue you’ve chosen, an equally bright green or yellow would suit the layout as contrasting colors. Or, if you wanted to tone the look down, I’ve always loved the way blue and brown go together. Also, the white song lyrics on top of a cyan blue are illegible, especially on the right side. I would add a black or dark blue drop shadow to these lyrics so they’re more visible.
