Horrible Web Site Critique

http://uglytub.com/

1. Only a few links do anything when hovered over.
2. Some of them, but many are just black text links
3. Yes, but you have to know the link that redirects to the home page.
4. As a "Who we are" black text link
5. They are almost all obscured and hidden
6. No. the purpose is hardly clear, it has something to do with bath tubs

1. No, it is white and plain
2. No, they are not related in any way.
3. It is black and white, so contrast is excellent
4. No, I don't even know who the audience is!
5. Yes, no style
6. It is readable, but some of the text on pictures is hard to read
7.  Other than its horribleness, no.

1. People who need bathtubs refinished
2. No, it both rambles and is uninformative
3. The only thing this website could say if it could speak would be "Kill Me"
4. As stated before, the contrast is 100%, as it is black and white.
5. Yes, but they are very ugly

1. It does load quickly
2. From what I can see, yes, all links still function

Website Critique - Cody Mclaughlin

Navigation
1. Virtually all of them do, with the exception of the first image.
2. Yes, all links are labeled with indications of where they lead, although some of the pictures may not be clear.
3. Yes, all pages have Back/Next.
4. You have to click back through the entire site, but since the site is designed to be linear in is not that bad.
5. It is extremely obvious, with simple Next/Back buttons.
6. Yes, the title is How To be Normal.

Design
1. Somewhat, although it is extremely rudimentary and simple.
2. Yes, there are no major color clashes, ad most colors go together well.
3.Yes, no contrast issues.
4. I feel that it is, with the whole 'Normal" theme being reflected in the sites simplicity, but I doubt that was intentional.
5. Yes, it is reflected across very page.
6. Yes, it is readable quite easily, no major contrast issues or small typeface.
7. Besides that large amount of amusing GIFs, nothing incredible stands out.

Content
1. People who wish to be normal.
2.  Yes, there is very little actual text.
3. I feel that the websites lack of textual information does help 'speak', although in a different way to most.
4.Yes, no major contrast issues.
5. Yes, the text that is there is short and succinct, and really needs no headings.

Other Technical Considerations
1. Yes, it loads fairly quickly.
2. Yes, all links function correctly.
