I received her email later than the PP2 submission, and couldn't put it into my Live network list. But her advices about the user interface design is really helpful, so I just wanna show it on my blog.
She had a quick look at my web site. There is a lot of things that could use some fixing. For example there isn't a lot of breathing space between the text and pictures. My visited links are a bit dark so her don't read it very well anymore. The dates are in a weird position too. The rusty color I use to explain the screenshots is totally unreadable. She would recommend that my browse around some quality web site galleries such as http://www.cssbeauty.com/ for example and study how they apply colors and lay-out.
For the rest she would recommend reading some of these books to get a better understanding about web design. The lists of the books show in the image below.
