3) I don't like reviews when you need to go through multiple pages and each of them has like a paragraph of text. It's annoying. I would much rather read the whole review on one page.
4) Sound: 7
Value: 6
Overall: 7
This text in the end of review is black on dark brown and hard to read.
Good stuff here.
1) Larger font on big list - Check
2) Mr. Black twice - Check
2.5) 'other' - This has to do with the way I set up my database in the distant past. I only thought I would put in fuzz, other dirt, and filters. This will take some real work to fix.
3) Multi-page. This was from some older ideas I had about keeping things together. I took a few minutes and I believe that I have cleaned them out. All reviews should be one single long page.
4) black on brown for ratings. Older reviews used a different layout that I forgot about, that had some hard coding built in. I did some global search and replaced and they should be more universally view-able now.

If it was up to me, I'd make the "Big List" page be the landing page, as that one tells me what the site has to offer. Or, I'd make a fixed post (always stays at the top of the page) that says something like "Reviews of fuzz effects on bass! Welcome to the scorched earth of bass fuzz reviews!" etc.

I'm using a small laptop, small screen. The logo text in the upper left corner wraps as:
BassFuzz.c
om


Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the feedback! I mucked around a little with some font sizes, and tossed the logo back up on the top. I'm unsure if I'm willing to commit to the biglist as a mainpage at this point, but I'll ponder it some more.

Looks really good. One thing though, could you center the text on the grid, it may make it easier to read.

Also your page is the reason I went with a Battering Ram and even after several other fuzz pedals I can't shack the ram. Thanks for the great work.

Lots of work went into this. I looks terrific.
I like the color scheme (arguably quite masculin) but more importantly I like the improve navigation. It's nice to have everything on the front page, as one would expect.
No navigation issues under Windows 7.

Congrats, it's really well done.

Thanks! It's an adapted style, so I can't take all the credit, but I'm happy with it after 'living with it' for a week now.

Maybe it's just my screen rez (1920x1080, 27" monitor), but everything is heavily left-justified...the right 1/3 of the page is a brown empty.

Other than that, I like the new look.
