Nice! Another super clean design. Though this one seems to have a little New Wave feeling to it as well.

I like the white header and footer acting as framing elements around the Lake Tahoe picture. I also like how you took blues from the picture and used them as design elements. Your logo contrasts well with the image behind it as well as the otherwise clean look of the rest of your website. Your nav buttons are large and easy to use and your body copy is well presented in it's little box. At first I wasn't sure what to think of the second frame in your bodycopy box, but I am warming to it.

I think you could have used contrast a bit better in your navigation. I have trouble seeing the button type, I think it would have served it's purpose better in black. Alos, the class information is pinned to the bottom of the footer. It would work better vertically centered in the footer.

Really nice clean design here. Great work, Tiffani.

Tiffani, this is a very nice design. The photograph is beautiful! The clear waters work really well with your 'Clear Design' logo. Our eyes are drawn to the logo, and I like the balance used between it and your scenic background. Your buttons in the navigation bar stand out and are nicely done (did you intend to have PROJECT 2 & 3 instead of 1 & 2 by chance?). The only suggestions I would consider at this point is moving the footer content a little higher from the bottom, and working with the T and D in your logo so they stand out more against the black box in the background.
Once again, beautiful imagery.

Hi Tiffani,

I love your Design! The photo is beautiful, and a good representation of you. The site itself easy to navigate. My only criticism is the leding on the body copy could be tightened up a little. Other than that, great job!

Beautiful beautiful picture!!!! I like the layout, the top half looks profect to me, as far as the body copy and the box, there is somthing about it that is not working wiht the rest of the clean style you have. Try loosing the box outline and also drop the transperensy even lower, or loose the transperency box coplitly. It might work since there just rocks in the backround with dark color and white latter might just pop on its own wihtout the box or much lighter box, but defently loose the border. Amazing start!!!

Hi Tiffani,

I think this final is a great improvement over the rough! Skewing the black box in the logo was a good choice, because it draws interest and makes it more dynamic. The links look much better grouped together, but I think the text in them gets a little bit lost. However, the whole design really embodies the clean aesthetic very well, so great job!

I really like your design!
The photo is great. Also, I like your name design
I think your navigation bar is amazing. It was good idea to use opacity.
Great job!

Hi Tiffani,

This design is, simply put, beautiful. The color scheme is gentle and flows well with the rest of the layout, which is easy to navigate and your paragraph is perfectly legible even thought it's white. Though the issue I see also lies in the copy, the leading needs to be tighter! That aside, great job!
