Project 2 Preliminary-The Wal

Post by danistephens3 »

Hey everyone!

Here is what I was working with:

http://lilwal.com/html/index.php

I kept the whole wolf pack theme because that seems to be the place to be when the football games are going on plus they have a ton of memorabilia inside too. I stayed AWAY from the cartoon-ish look that they had on the original website. I tried to incorporate images of the bar itself while still organizing the information. I still have to add all the body copy, it is a lot to get through with the menus and beers that they have on tap. I'll repost again when I've sorted through it all. Thanks!

We'll from what you started with it's coming along the layout and colors are good. I think both are viable. I would like to see some more content to get a feel for typography and layout but it's definitely headed Ina good direction.

I like the colors and imagery, but I think there should be more content...

Of the two I like the layout on your second design. The photograph is also good so why not take a few palettes off of that bar photograph? I think it'll look good.. Other than that, good start!

I think your first is the stronger design. The second one seems a little chaotic and might subtract from the content.

I like the horizontal layout of the second design. It works as a nice frame for your pictures and content. It uses the UNR silver and blue colors well. The navigation is easy to see and use and you have a nice large spot for pictures.

I'd like to see a bit more content so I and your fellow students can give better feedback on typography and layout. I also think your blue middle can be vertically enlarged so that the thick silver header and footer are a little thinner. Try enlarging the navigation just a little bit as well.

Good work.

Either one. Menu, check. Beer, check. Picture of the outside, check. Map?

Hi Danielle! I'm liking the transparencies revealing the background image in the 2nd. It adds visual interest that is lacking in the first layout, although I feel the 1st is working better compositionally. Incorporate the two? Also, I'm thinking perhaps you could set aside more space for the menu area, especially since it sounds like a long one.

The colors and layout of the first design are very appealing, but you need to add some more content so we can get a better feel for the layout. Nice job so far though.

I really like your first design better. I like how you used the wolf pack colors in your design. My suggestion would be to move the button bar to the top where the gray blank space is next to the logo so the header doesn't look so empty.
