Project 1 Final

[lewlewland]

I decided to go with the layout with the portrait in it since it got the best response. I personally don't like the one with my portrait but since it seemed to be chosen by the majority I went with it. I fixed the text boxes and the font size to make it more easily readable. I cleaned up the nav bar to make it more attractive and easily usable. I added nav buttons where I intend to hold my contact info such as my email. I'm curious to see how this comes out when I code it. I hope that it is simple enough to do but interesting enough to see.

I really enjoy the the changes you' made. I really enjoy the red bar under the information. It looks like it was combined with the design you liked mixed with the one you didn't like. which makes it look cool. The placement of the type and the logo and picture seem to have its own space within the design. It is enjoyable to me good work.

Your final designs came out great! I think they both look very simple, clean, easy to navigate, and professional. I like that you aligned that slight red boarder at the top with your personal logo and navigation buttons! The only critique I have, and it is probably just a personal preference of my own, is that I don't love the big empty space between your personal paragraph and links in your web layout. You could consider bringing all the text just slightly toward the middle to lessen the dead space.
Great job!

Your design is very simple and i really like that. The colors really tie together and your font is legible, which is great on a website. I really like your logo, its really simple and i quickly understand what it is. Great designs!

I really like these two designs. They're clean and show your personality. The only slight critique I can give is for your mobile I would prefer to see the paragraph somewhere else, middle or maybe bottom. However these came great.

I really like the changes you have made. I really like the font and how legible it is. I really like how simple and clean this is. I like the top menu bar and what you have put on there in both versions. On your web version, I want to nudge your background image over the right a litter bit for you to be more highlighted in the middle of that blank space. If you need a little bit more of the picture on that side, you could perhaps use paint to copy a chunk of the clouds and paste it to the left and do a little blending together so it isn't noticeable. If you need more room at the top, you could always do a colored box at the top of the color that the sky was blending into last to make it seem like there is more sky than there is.

On your mobile version, I think your face may be a little big. Also, if you didn't want it to be your image there, all we need is an image and if you just wanted it to be clouds, you could do that too.

I really like the black lines that you use to break up the information. I also really like the Swishy cursive L logo you have. Great job!

The improvements came out clean and readable. Only suggestion is on mobile, your bio on top and hat compete with each maybe try to decrease txt size or something. Other than that cool layout and logo!

[JBobier]

Great changes! You have made a huge improvement. I think it does a great job showing your personality. Good job!

I think the design works well and if you wanted to I think you could change out the photo background and it would still work depending on the photo. But that's all up to you because I think the photo of you works well here.

You've got yourself a good design here, Lewis. I like the white top bar/menu. It makes for a great framing device of the picture below and provides good contrast to draw the eye to your navigation. I was initially not sure what to think of the red accent line and how it didn't go all the way across, but as I look at it more I really like it. It provides a visual shorthand to box your content in without having to do anything along the sides. I like your typographic choice as well. Really strong of you to go with a single type and then use weights to establish navigational hierarchy. Truly an excellent use of margins throughout your layout too. Everything has the perfect amount of room to breathe without fragmenting.

I get the use of the white boxes on your mobile version (so your type can be read against your face), but I'm not sure they're needed on your computer layout. That sky and clouds are pretty light.

Excellent work!
