Appearently I'm going to "Continue?" my game.... ^0^v

Post by aznpandaaa »

Alright, so here it is. Sadly, I had to choose the one that I least liked out of the two but it is starting to grow on me. haha
here is the ORIGINAL FILE in case you guys were wondering:

WARNING! THIS IS THE ORIGINAL FILE.... in case no one reads hahah

This is the NEW AND IMPROVED version. So as you can see I took a lot of your advices and this is what I came up with. I made my title logo a little more prominent by making it bigger and drop shadowing the class title. I eliminated the fours boxes and just created the three for simplicity and hopefully make it a bit more effective. I did this by eliminating the contacts box and added it with my "About Me" box. As you can see I mimicked the borders around my boxes to reflect the overall background. Overall I'm happy with how it turned out. Hope you guys feel the same way.

My name would be in the about me section.

Like what charlie said, I think your name should be the main focus of your page and have "grc175" and "web design and publishing I" as your subheader. Maybe play with your font styles and sizes a little too.

Other than that, your page is looking good! Good job.

I like the way you have set up your design, it seems to have a better flow to me. I don't think your name being a big focus as a problem, although if you had it as a main emphasis people could notice it right away.

I voted "Yay".

You've kept all the strong elements from your first design (texture, character, and layout) and noticeably strengthened them with some better typography and a lot of little design tweaks. You have good margins throughout your design and your texture and contrast continue to work well.

But where is your name, Mystery Man? And why are your project links icons with no text?

In language that you internet types will understand:

This design is much better! I really like it and it seems like it would be very easy to navigate so that's good. I think the colors, font, and texture you used are great. My only suggestion is to slightly move up the words "NEW GAME CONTINUE?" up a little bit more to give the three content boxes a little more space.

Looks really good, actually reminds me of an in game lobby. But I do agree with Elizabeth, center your new game/load game buttons a bit more. Also, maybe a darker or even lighter border around your 4 boxes so they pop out a bit more.
