Second rough attached.

Also, I'm not a GRC person, know nothing about it, never had a GRC class, so I did what I thought the
teacher wanted. I will try to attach something more in the spirit of GRC if I am able.

Howard, I'm only seeing one layout but off the bat maybe some color choices and font styles would help us understand the direction your going?

Kind of "blocky"? Where's the design?

Yeah... i can't really give you any feed back because there isn't much to really critique here. The 1st comp doesn't even show up with anything other than a blank slate and the 2nd one is missing all visual eye candy. I need something more to really help critique you.

The layout seems organized at least, but way more should be done...

Although I see what everyone is saying about the two roughs, I can kinda see what you're trying to do here. I do like the first one btr than the 2nd. I find the design youre trying to accomplish a lot more effective in the first as the second is. Keep it up, can;t wait to see your page with COLOR.

For not being a graphic student, it isn't bad at all. I think what everyone is trying to say is to try to use photoshop, illustrator, or whatever program you'd like to use to actually come with what you're trying to convey. If you don't have any access to anything try coming in to an OPEN LAB. The techs and fellow students will help you out. =)

Hi howard, I would like to critique your work but posting just the skeleton of your design would be difficult for us to visualize which direction your design is going. Font samples, color palettes, and telling us what theme you're planning on going for would greatly help.

not sure how to critique your design without images

Hello Howard, I enjoy the idea on the second one, but keep in mind on what image you use for the background. Because you're going to want the colors to match your content color. The first idea is much safer if you want a traditional design in my opinion. Also, you might want to think about adding a header. Headers tend to work well with traditional blocky designs.

theres a link with some fancy headers.

It's really tough to critique your designs here because we don't know what your color or type or even images will look like?
