CastawayJen 0 Report post Posted August 19, 2011 Hi, I created my website last year when I was going to Australia for four weeks. I used it as a blog and continued the blog when I moved away from home at 16 years old to study marine biology at college. I am going to the Amazon to work with river dolphins next Summer and will blog that too. I would like some opinions on my site in general, the content, style, design or anything would be helpful!! My website: http://www.thecastawaydream.co.uk/ Thank you very much, I look forward to reading any comments about it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob86 2 Report post Posted August 23, 2011 Ahoy there Castaway, I checked out your blog. I like the name you've chosen "The Castaway Dream", it sounds cool. I find the font colours a bit difficult to read, the blue on grey especially. It depends what browser and computer I'm using. The content is interesting, I have an interest in animals, I've rescued a few myself No whales or dolphins mind you! I haven't had the opportunity to see many marine ones. Your trip to the Amazon sounds pretty exciting, it would be interesting to read about it but I'll have forgotten about it by then unless you plan on staying a member here Hi, I created my website last year when I was going to Australia for four weeks.
