Amy's 2 roughs (Blue and Green)

[oasib]

My roughs: Blue(1) and Greed (2)
The two layouts with the arrows and notes, make it kind of difficult to see how the front page looks, so I also attached just the front page layouts just in case. I am going with the blue one, the green one is way to busy.

Sites I liked:
I found it kind of difficult finding the site that I really really liked, all of them are very similar. Below are two sites that I found different and interactive.

1. http://www.designembraced.com/#/MIO
I very like portfolio of Anthony Goodwin (British Creative/Art Director&Designer). I thought it was innovative, very clean, slick designs. Visually interesting, functional, overall great interface and shows his work and his abilities. Great Designer.
I like how he created “front pages” that take you to the overview of the projects that he created, how his logo pops while the page loads (cool idea, give more time for people to look at it, remember it to recognize it latare…lol) I found this guy here, http://www.awwwards.com/best-websites/design-embraced-2..
The only thing that I can say negatively is that when you get to the page you don’t know your way around right away, cause it is operates a little bet differently the other sites, but you train very fast within few second or minute or so..

2. http://www.verynicesites.com/....
There is this site with the wrist watch; I like the interface, the simplicity of it. I used this site to design my blue page idea. Gave me inspiration to have a front page with just buttons that take you to the page with the text about me. I will also put TMCC and class name there.
As far as the thing that I dislike a little, I say that the illustration of the watch could be more interesting, and the site content is not very exsiding.

Info/tips sites:
Here are just few of the link, with written information to read on how to create better websites, things to consider and marketing tips.
1. And here is another site, that has interesting information to read, http://webmarketingtoday.com/articles/P ... eb-Design/,

2. 10 Tips on how to build and market a website, http://cordis.europa.eu/ictresults/pdf/ ... ngTool.pdf, there is nothing special there, but I thought important and basic ginfo to consider about when building a site.

Looks great. Where is the TMCC info? Where is your "about me" info? How about the links to the projects?

Good design, I wish we could see where your buttons were actually being placed in the design though.

It's a little busy, but I wouldn't change anything. It's a very unique design. It's cute, but also has a technological side to it that interests me. Good job, I'm loving it

Hi Amy! You have 2 beautiful design conepts here. I'm particularly drawn to your green one because of the color choice and excellent use of various textures. Don't forget all the requirements for the page though - navigation, links, body copy...looking forward to see how you will incorperate these.

I like the blue design, and I agree with the botton comments... where will they be?

[grc_175_rpereyra]

very nice, love the colors. buttons are really cool..

[tabasco_lynn]

The blue design is very cute! I love the color you have chosen but it doesn't look like a website, it needs better navigation.

honestly, I'm liking the green one. Might be because I'm bias to green hahaha. I see what you mean by busy but the concept and design is very pleasing. Good job!
