In My Psyche

Posted in website, Yuuki's contest  by redamethyst 3 Comments

Mae or Peppermayo have a new layout from the the last time I made a review about her site, though the green and brown background is from her old layout. I also like the header with a girl in a some what rainbow background. As if thinking, as if dreaming in her own little place. The widgets and the designs are very personal, as if she is saying that you are In My Psyche, so behave. haha. Just kidding, the layout is really friendly and inviting.

In My Psyche

This site is her personal blog. She writes about entertainment, travel, family, fashion and a lot more. She is also a participant of weekly meme, like Girl’s Talk and Post it note Tuesday, to name a few. I enjoyed reading her latest PINT entry; she says she is trying to be nice and subtle. Hmmhh.. I don’t know, I just told you to behave. haha. Want to know what I’m talking about? Head on to her site now, get to know her, read her thoughts and be able to relate.

This is a blog review as entry to Yuuki’s Twin Blogversary Contest.

Just Another Pixel

Posted in website, Yuuki's contest  by redamethyst 8 Comments

Just Another Pixel has black background with two columns template and three columns footer. The sidebar is just right with ads, archives, topics and some rankings.

The author of this blog is known as blankPixels and I believe she writes with sophistication and elegance. Her brave commentary on different topics makes me more interested in her site. Though she writes long articles, I still read it to the end because they are very helpful and detailed. Though I didn’t vote last National Election, I learned how to vote just by reading her articles I was even convinced to vote Richard Gordon, my mom vote for him, by the way. I still need to read on “how to speed up blog loading time by optimizing images you post“, looks like I can really use this article.

If you want to know what I am talking about, you can visit Just Another Pixel and find out more about her and her interests. I’m sure it would be worth your time.

Pops Up of Nicquee’s Mind

Posted in website, Yuuki's contest  by redamethyst 7 Comments

I like the header of Pop Ups of my Mind. The image shows a girl idly sitting in a curve matress like thing. Actually I don’t know how to call that, I just attached a screenshot of the image. I can just imagine a woman thinking just about anything. I find the title font cute too. The description is very clear and it will really give you the idea on what to expect on the site. Her side bars on the left and right side are clean and not cluttered. It contains blogs she likes and the latest posts in them. Tags and archives are also available.

The contents of the blog are anything that Pop up of Nicquee’s mind, the mommy behind this lovely blog. True enough, these are her personal views as a mother, wife, friend, blogger, worker or just anything in between. It was stated in her description and you can read it in her articles. One thing I discovered is that Nicquee wanted to become a model. That’s what I found out when I dig in to her archive and I also learned that this blog was started in 2004.

Pinay Mommy Online

Posted in website, Yuuki's contest  by redamethyst 4 Comments

Pinay Mommy Online is owned by Mommy Rubz. This site was started when she has 2 beautiful children, but if I am not mistaken there is already an additional to their family. She is a career mom before but turned to a stay at home mom to a work at home mom. I believe she is earning really good online. Just recently, Pinay Mommy Online installed a new theme, from a red three columns template to a pink three columns template. the difference is that the sidebars are now on the left and right. I am not a fan of pink, but I like her site better than before. It is more feminine and I think it fits her more.

Mommy Rubz offers services like blog hosting and social book marking that will help new bloggers setup their own blogs. She also has tutorials section where in she posts useful articles about paypal, blogging and blogger tips. She is also coming up with a wordpress tips and tricks soon. Aside from that, she also writes almost anything under the sun. Her contest about Follow me Philippines giveaway just ended and she is asking her participants to be patient in waiting for the announcement of winners.

This is a blog review as an entry for Yuuki’s Twin Blogversary Contest. If you haven’t join yet, you still have time to join. Just don’t forget to mention that I referred you. :-)

Random Blog Contest

Posted in website, Yuuki's contest  by redamethyst 4 Comments

I visited Random Blog Contest for the first time because this is one of the sponsors for Yuuki’s Twin Blogversary Contest. This review is an entry for that contest.

Ever since I started blogging and discovered that there are a lot of contests being held online, I became a constant participant in different contest, I even created a blog dedicated for that. Random Blog Contest, as the title suggested is also dedicated for different contests held online. I discovered from yuuki that the author is Jenn. I like the way she categories the contests. I’m not with good at that I guess, my tags on my contest blogs are so scattered. haha. I also like how she gives information about the contest. She just includes the essentials, Links, deadline and Prizes and of course a picture that is so inviting.

The layout is simple but I really like it. Availability of the navigation menu is helpful. If you are a contest host, you can submit the details so she can post it on her site. If you want to have maximum exposure, you can pay a minimal amount and get the featured contest spot. So, if you are a contest craze like me, better check Random Blog Contest and find out what’s the latest and hottest contest in the blogsphere.

Visit Elai’s Haven

Posted in website, Yuuki's contest  by redamethyst 5 Comments

This is a blog review as an entry to Yuuki’s Twin Blogversary Contest. Contest will end on May 31, you still have time to join.

This is not my first time to visit Elai’s Haven. Actually, I met Elai on a Paid to post forum wherein we were both addicted that time. And through blog hopping I or she discovered that we have our own blogs. It made me a frequent visitor of her pink site.

Yes, different shades of pink can be seen on her site. Though I am not fan of the color pink, I can’t stop myself from visiting her site. She writes interesting articles about her life and her family. Time really flies fast because I remember reading that she is preparing for her delivery and now her little angel is already three months old. That was last April, and now, the baby is already four months old. She is also an active participant of Music Monday, Wordless Wednesday and some other weekly meme. She would also give her Monthly Top dropper and first commentator enough recognition.  The site is very easy to navigate and I just love her three columns template, you know I am always a fan of three columns template. With a PR of three, this site is worth your time.
