I love free stuff so don't stop the give-aways. The front page is great except I liked being able to see the chatter box without having to scroll all the way down to the bottom, cuz I check the foums more than I am reading the articles. I like having the free stuffs and game nigts highlighted in the side bar, thats a big help. I miss having the list of most recently commented threads like the last forum style you had. A blog spot would rock. The colors are cool. I can find everthing I need when I need it. You cover everything I want and more!

Great job GA staff!!!

Are you excited for our upcoming community night? Not particularly myself becuase I don't plan on buying L4D2 flat out. and if I do, it'll probably be the PC version.

Do you enjoy our giveaways? Yes! Very much so! They're great. I'd love to win one and get some GA Gear!

What do you think of the front page? I love the main headlines window. That is really cool. The listings below it are a little awkward to navigate, but I manage. I usually only look at the videogame news and for the 5@5.

Do you like the colors? the Brown/Blue/Beige is cool. i don't mind them too much. I personally don't feel it too much, but I won't argue about it as long as I still get the great journalism and podcasts.

Can you make sense of the layout? Yeah, I can make sense of it. the bar underneath the GA logo shows the different sections on the site, and what subjects are covered.  I do have some problems navigating the podcasts, except for the 5@5 which is pretty easy for me to pick up and listen to.

Do you know where to find the latest articles? On the main page, I think. They're listed by section underneath the main headlines. I do feel like it's kind of clunky when I go to a section and find the articles side-by-side. I'd rather them be one on top of the other. But that's me. I can still navigate it fine. 

Do you want to have a place to write your own blogs? I think it'd be a nice feature to allow personal blogs, but I wouldn't say I want it, or need it. There's plenty of other sites out there that allow an individual to blog.

Do you enjoy all the subjects we cover? I enjoy the videogame news, and i've looked over some of the other stuff. But yes, the game news is great stuff.

I also love following the GA staff on Twitter. It's great to hear what's going on in your lives. 

Keep it up, Love your work.

 Are you excited for our upcoming community night?

No not really. Mostly because I don't own most of the games that everyone is playing. I always seem to miss the Pogo nights which are the nights I want to participate in that's just my bad luck.

Do you enjoy our giveaways?

In short yes. I love hearing about them. I just never get to enter.

What do you think of the front page?

The categories are great and it's easy to find what you want at a glance and articles don't get lost as often. That's a plus.

Do you like the colors?

The colors are okay. I can't think of any other colors the site could be.

Can you make sense of the layout?

It's sensible just a little cluttered. Some times I forget where things like the forum links are .

Do you know where to find the latest articles?

On the front page? At least that where I assume they are. Or I just click the twitter links.

Do you want to have a place to write your own blogs?

Yes. That's the one thing that I miss is the ability to have gaming blog.

Do you enjoy all the subjects we cover?

There's not enough original content besides reviews. There are a lot of press releases. In some sections the top five articles are all press releases.

Also even though this site has a reach to the female audience not everything has to be so female. Not everything that doesn't include women is sexist. That's just something on the site that I've noticed.

Other than that i think the site's quite well-rounded in terms of pop-culture, anime, gaming, etc and I enjoy the articles for the most part.

A chance to show off how awesome Gaming Angels is, by speaking my mind about things?  Does it get any better to be me, or any other Angel for that matter?

Overall, I really like the front page.  I'm not usually a fan of brown, except in my hair. However here it seems to work well with the pastel blue, though the color-combination makes me think paisley without there being any pattern at all.  I'm kinda sad that there's no pink, but that's just because I adore pink things.  I can see why you might be trying to steer away from all the stereotypes by avoiding the pink.  The layout itself makes really good sense to me, as I usually have time to check headlines and the forum in the morning before I head off to classes, and I can check headlines and new articles in all of the sections simply by scanning the front page.  As far as the community nights go, it's hard for me because I'm gaming on weekends (Both Friday night and all-day Saturday are devoted to tabletop gaming, I run a D&D game on Friday and participate in whatever new thing my best friend is running on Saturday.)  Also, for the current one, I don't have L4D2, because it was wait for that or get Dragon Age right away… because I'm a poor college student, and my boyfriend would split the cost of DA with me, we went with that.  And, as you can probably note in what I said before my paragraph of doom here, I love the giveaways.  One of the first things I did with GA was win the 9 Art Book, which was probably the best Birthday Present in the history of ever.  (Cherith I have pictures for you, they're just trapped in my camera.T.T)  Oh, you asked about blogs too.  I'm not really looking for a new place to blog at all, because I have them scattered in places where I am across the internet, add Twitter and Tumblr and it's a bit crazy. I probably wouldn't update it often, and it would just look sad. But! Overall, I have had a hard time sticking with news sites and/or review sites or forums.  There's just never enough there to draw me in, I'm really distractable, so it's hard.  But I love GA.  I check it every morning to see what new awesomeness happened, and in that, I see the front page every morning, and usually have something new to read, some new awesomeness to discover.

Are you excited for our upcoming community night?

Of course!  I couldn't play in this one because of lag (most of GB Witch Slapped knows how frustrated I was because of this).  I enjoy all of the nights, especially the ones that get featured on the dashboard because it gives me a chance to play with lots of different people, and I actually get to scout out females for GB, lol!

Do you enjoy our giveaways?

Heck yeah!!  Though I've never won anything in my life, it's fun to get involved and I love the attention it brings to GA!  I'll keep trying though, ^-^

What do you think of the front page? Do you like the colors?

I know the site features lots of topics, and I find myself forgetting to scroll down to notice the other articles, although I'm mostly interested in gaming -which is shown first- I think if the layout utilized most of the page's width, then there would be less scrolling down involved….or maybe I'm just being to nit-picky?  The colors are fine, like someone said before, I can't think of any other color to suggest.  White would be so…normal.  It would be cool if there was a way to chose a theme, though.  I think along with having "recent forum posts" it would be cool to have a "recent article comment"area or something like that other than the most commented box.

Can you make sense of the layout?

Yes, there's nothing confusing about it. :)

Do you know where to find the latest articles?

Front page :) or just click on the topic you want to read.

Do you want to have a place to write your own blogs?

Yeah!  That would be great, or at least having a more social aspect to the site would be nice.  I'm not much of a forumer as much as I like, so another way of communicating and seeing all the GA members would be perfect!

Do you enjoy all the subjects we cover?

Absolutely!  I love that it's not just about feminine topics, but there's always something that ties in the female aspect.  I wish more Angel Life topics were featured since they're more interesting to me than game news.  I like that GA accepts guest reviews and articles as well. 

Above everything: I love Trina!!  This site is great because it's run by a great person with a great vision :)
