For my website, I made it a multi-branch so anyone on the site is able to go back and forth between the pages except for the project 3 and 4. Those open in a brand new tab, I also made the website responsive so it moves with the size of the viewport.

Hi Yasmin,
I really love the background image you decided to go with, it's really colorful and fun to look at. If I could offer and ideas, it might be to keep the white see-through bar on the menu buttons, but lose it on all the other areas of your site. It may look cool the change the font color of the lager text, like your name, to something bight or even white?? But I do think the see-through banners would look great as a header or footer. Good job so far...I'm jealous you have so many links working already!

Love that background image, Yassy. It provides such texture and visual interest your website. The colors are so fascinating. I love the way the teal and orange play with each other. I generally agree with your decision to make as much of your content as possible transparent to make sure as little of that rad background image is covered as possible. I like the way it almost glows through your black type. Makes it feel molten. The sans-serif type is super clean and works well with the visual complexity of your background image.

Two big issues stand out at me. First, is margin. Your text is a little too close to the edges of most of your semi-transparent boxes. The only one that's good that I can see is the one around your name. Two, it took me a while to find your navigation. I think it could have been brighter and more prominent.

Good effort!

Yasmin,
I love your background image and how well the transparent boxes look against it, even though I hate outlining things in boxes lol. I will say it needs something else like a picture or a bio on the home page to make it more personal to you!

Hello Yasmin,

I really like how your website turned out. Good job! The only thing I may suggest is making your navigation bar a little bigger so it can give your layout a better sense of hierarchy. Perhaps you could consider moving your navigation bar where you have your email and additional information. Aside from that, great work!

Hi Yasmin!

I love love love your background image! I think I said it in our project one critiques, but I'll say it again. Making the majority of the elements transparent helps the image stand out, but it's still easy to navigate. Great job!

Hello Yasmin, good work. I like that background image. I like the way you used the boxes around the text for easy legibility. My suggestion would be to make the navigation bar bigger.

Hey Jasmin! I really love how your website tuned out!! I think your background image looks so good and really makes your website eye-catching. If I had to change one thing I would mess with the layout of your socials and contacts because they seem to be off to the side not lining up with anything. Really nice job!

Hi Yasmin,
Always love seeing the marble color background! And your fonts make the design so fun! Something that I think would help would maybe fixing your header width and height. I think it'll help finding your navigation and balance it out since you have your contact and social box extended in the middle! I hope that helps and I can't wait to see the rest of your projects!

Hi Yasmin,
The background image you chose is really cool and I think your website shows what kind of style you like. I like how you made pages about you and references! One thing I would change is the font size of the navigations. I think they can be a few points bigger. Nice work!
