Project Two Critique

This was really fun but I really changed my entire website, I know I shouldn't have but it was because I didn't like my original design and I also really wanted a moving background after he demonstrated the gif backgrounds. I was really not confident about this website design thing but in the end I found it to be really fun and I learned so much
from this class. There are some things I got stuck on that I should've asked about like I couldn't get my logo to show up for some reason.

Hi Adrianna,

That's a big change -- I give you credit for really breaking out and trying something different! I think the moving background may be a little too busy and makes the text difficult to read and focus on. Maybe shrink it to be a smaller element. It's a cool-looking gif.
Great job getting all that coded!

Hey Adrianna,

Nice work putting the new design together for you webpage. Cool gif! I do agree with Nalani that having the gif take up the whole background makes the text a little more difficult to read/focus on. I think it would work reallllly well as a cool header image though!
Nice work!

A bit hard on my eyes, text in the buttons need to be centered. seems like everything is smooshed togeter up at the top.

Great work for coming up with a new design. I like the moving background. I feel like the purple box on top could go. I would also think about maybe changing the nav bar color to purple as well. I feel like a page called the purple page should be nothing but purple. Looks like your logo doesn't like you. Otherwise great work.

Hm. I'm not quite sure what I'm seeing here, Adrianna. There don't seem to be any images. The background is bright pink and there's a blue to purple gradient up at the top behind your navigation. At least I can read your type which stands out nicely against the gobs of pink. The navigation is easy to see and use at least.

I'm just not sure there's enough here for me to really critique. There are most of the pieces of a webpage here, but I'm not really seeing what's going on.

Good effort, though!

Hi, Adrianna, I love the water moving in the background and the colors of navigation, it just needs a little work of text.

Hey Adrianna, wow this is a big change lol, not like it's a bad thing or anything. I like the purple and blue colors you got. The animated gif is a neat touch, however, I am not feeling the ripple animation, or at least it is not in a ideal spot. We read from left to right, as our eyes are moving to the right to read your text, the ripple moves from right to left which clashes with our reading direction. Perhaps position the gif more to the left as the ripple will go from left to right and help push our eyes to the right direction. Nice job!
