Yep...

Your name, and the stars, come across as a series of boxes.

I like it. One suggestion would be to drop all the UTF reliance (yes, 
this is a trivial matter) in favor of <img>'s or even numerical ratings 
1-5. Reason being is that UTF-8 stars look very different depending on 
what font is being used to render them (some are opaque solid, some are 
"shadowed", etc.) which is a big pain for uniform (graphic) "design"... 
not to mention that the stars (& your name) don't render at all on most 
machines I use.
