Hi everyone,

I went with my second design for my final layout and improved my paragraph spacing. Thanks everyone for your feedback and comments!

I love your choice of using the primary colors and the simple shapes. It flows very well in your design!

You really did improve this design from the preliminary. The colors look really nice and the type is easy to read. Its simple and I think adding the picture of you really brings it all together. Great work!

HI Ryan,
Last, but not the least comment for me, befores...too late... my computer died. Continued next day at 100%...It is a great layout. The type is a bit small, but so is my monitor. I am happy is all works with your picture with the background textures image of the outdoors. It really conveys the piece of nature and outdoor fun. Thank you for sharing the creative layout.

Hi Ryan,

Still loving the colors and shapes in these. Adding a photo is a nice, fitting centerpiece. The layouts feel nicely balanced and are fun to look at. Great job!

Hi Ryan, your circle design is so nice and it gives your website a fun look to it, glad you went with that one. The circle near the h in the headline is nice touch too. Neat job!

Awww yeah! You went with the Beatnik one. Well selected, Ryan. It just uses contrast so well. Between the black and white and all the bright split complimentary colors, it's really a visually interesting design. It reflects and enhances your logo. That right side curve has such a great sense of bottom to top motion. It flows up your document and really breaks up the boxy look that a lot of websites suffer from. Great use of margin and proximity throughout the thing to group items together and show us what we need to look at. And it looks like you fixed the paragraph spacing issue. That was my only real gripe with the preliminary work version of this thing.

The only little nitpick I see on this version is that I would have moved the TMCC logo a touch to the right so that it shares a left edge with your naviagtion. That's it. Otherwise this thing's all good.

Great work!

Hello Ryan,

I really like the flow and movement in your layout. I think the final design turned out super clean and modern looking. Very easy to navigate. Personally, I find the body copy font a bit small and it makes it a little harder to read. But I also have really really bad eye sight so that could definitely just be a me thing.

Overall super nice layouts though!
