hi cris,
nice article..
hi cris. i like your case study! it made me think! hehe. you can also try using a lighter shade of layout for a more brighter feel to your blog.:) you can also fix the spacing of your answers. keep it up!
LOVE♥
hi cris, i like the pictures in your article, but i think you can also use other shade of layout.
hi, your post is good. I suggest you use other layout. Yours is a bit dull.
The case and questions were great but there were some typho, which made it a bit confusing.
Good luck...:)
hi cris,
i like the case analysis portion, my brain cells need to have a double work...eheh
but please try another layout and font color, so it would be easy for your readers to read your post..
yo, this post is a good one, it just needs some modification to lighten up a bit and to add some enthusiasm for the readers to continue reading your blog. you can add some twist or anything; you can change font color or font style to emphasize important words...
you can also interchange the position of your tests: putting your identification part on the top and case analysis on the bottom part, so readers would understand easily your post.
then again, you did awesome work in making this post. nice work.
hi cris.. its a good post, its very detailed and informative. i like the way you construct your questions and case ana. maybe editing some fonts and colors could make your post more attractive and readable. you can also organize your post to be easily understand by the reader.
