GRC 175 Learning and Discussion Forum

Hello! Here is my project 3. I must warn, it's unfinished, but this is what I have. This project was quite the challenge compared to project 2 in my opinion, but designing a preexisting website was a lot of fun overall! My website was Cool Math Games and I went for a space theme. The preexisting colors on the original website reminded me of a galaxy and the logo kind of already resembles a planet to me so I ran with that.

Hi Sierra! I definitely see the idea taking shape really well!
I'm glad you got a good start and had fun

Very definitely unfinished, Sierra. But I like what I do see.

That textured background photo is really quite neat. It drives such visual interest and has such depth. It feels like an arts and crafts project, I must say. The colors work well together too. They echo the colorscheme in the logo and do a nice job tying the layout to the branding. The texture behind the left nav bar looks like a Martian landscape. I also like the swoosh in the sky. It does a good job moving the eye from planet to planet. The headline type is fun. It pops out at me and makes me want to click on each of the little planets.

Pity there is no inner pages. I would have liked to have seen more of this website. There's no real content beyond the background image and a basic layout unfortunately.

Good effort!

Hi Sierra!
I love the color scheme you are going for; it stays true to the colors of the original logo. This project was challenging; I had trouble with my pictures and type. I love the direction you are going for; my only suggestion would be to choose more styling fonts for the bold words on the home page. Besides that, this website is heading in a good direction!

Hello Sierra!

Although your website is not complete (thank you for your honesty), I think that you were off to a good start. I love the colors chosen for this assignment and I can see the potential that this project had. Based on what you've shared with us, I think that you did a good job. It looks pretty close to your original sketch.

Hey Sierra! I like the direction you took to create your website. I see what you were trying to do in regard to the navigation of the site. I think it has great potential if you do continue to make it!

Hi Sierra!

I really like what you have going on with your website. I also have an unfinished website, so I understand your pain. It's difficult getting all the information in. Great start though! The background image is so fun

Hey Sierra! As most classmates have commented, I also enjoy where this is going, as well as your imagery! The background image reminds me of the alien claw machine from Toy Story, great start!

Hi, sierra! I like your website similar to your rough design trying your best. Well one thing that is needed is to remove the style list in the browsers, decorate a font then add color to the fonts. That's ok! You have a nice job

Hi Sierra! Your layout is coming along just fine! I think the next step is to focus on positioning your navigations, but I'm sure it'll turn out great! Great job!
