Original Poster Design

Critique it...
1. http://www.etsy.com
Opening page images change every few hours, selected by the users, usually following some kind of theme-items, color, etc. Making it kind of compulsory to check several times daily. Categories are well organized, and break down into subcategories once page is accessed. Hierarchy makes sense.
2. http://www.textsfromlastnight.com
Self explanatory site, sole purpose is humor and humor is accessed easily. Hierarchy makes sense and is easy to figure out.
3. http://mikedempsey.typepad.com
A blog about graphics and living...by a Mike Dempsey. It's engaging, he has many categories and lots of pictures. Blog posts are broken down into categories, and the posts themselves are well written. Everything is easily accessed.
4. http://www.r5productions.com
The site is not nearly as engaging as it should and could be...the images are small and hard to see and the whole site feels like it was put together in a hurry and just never updated. For the shows that they put on I feel that it should have a different atmosphere, and definitely updated.
5. http://www.bigplastichead.com
Portfolio/blog website with almost daily or at least weekly inspiration posts. Very engaging, very shiny, lots of animation and cool poster designs. Information is all organized on the right, with his portfolio options at top, then the new blog posts right under. Everything makes sense.

Website actually matches bands personality, as I know them personally I will attest to that. Well organized and engaging with the music starting up as soon as you open the page. Nice pictures too.

The Philadelphia Folk Festival's website is an overload of information, but sometimes you can find the right information...The overall design of it matches the event though.

Whee...portfolio site for designers. We talked. I find it well organized and with some playtime easy to figure out, but it does take some playtime.

A friends web portfolio. He is a children's book illustrator with a wicked sense of humor and huge imagination, and this site reflects that. Very well organized, with important contact information front and center and categories clearly defined. The flash animation is subtle but fun. His matching blog is fun to read and follow as he is finally updating it regularly...

Lots of fun portfolio website for a design company. I think the partners from partners design graduated from Moravian awhile ago. The site is well organized and clean, with information easily found and pictures nice and big.
