OK so I change my original design. trying to be more creative. here's my final for project number one, feel free to comment on what works and what doesn't.

I like this a lot btr than before. Shows a concept and does great with the requirements of the project. I'm liking your color choices and your nav bars. Good job!

Wow, a total turn around but it's great. I still think the buttons for project 1 and 2 are a little big but very very nice, well done.

You've got this great photograph but you're blocking it with your elements. Try integrating the photograph into your design.

Very nice choice of colors! I especially love the photograph you used here. It's really nice that I almost wished it wasn't covered by the blue text boxes, but I know it'll be difficult to choose a color that would prevent your texts from mixing colors with the background if you took it off so I think the box works just fine.

I find that there is too much "blue" going on here though so how about choosing a black text box instead to balance it out? Also, you could lower the size of your buttons and fonts too. Otherwise, good work!

The img background seems pixelated when I look at the trees in the background. I'd say remove the _ where you have your project link holders, and I dunno about the wrap of the banner on top, with the block triangles are, for some reason that just bothers me, since you don't repeat that on the bottom, just feel out of place to me. Just doesn't seem like it need to be there, I feel that if you removed that, you would have a much stronger page layout.

Your background image makes me feel like I'm on vacation. I'm not sure about splitting up your content area. It's unique and if thats what your going for keep it. Over all, i like it, good job.

Nice! Another pictorial design.

This one has a really nice use of color, the soothing blues, combined with the lake picture really put me in a relaxed mood. Nice use of subtile drop shadows and glows as well. I like the split column layout for your content. Your navigation is large and easy to use.

I'm not sure I care for the size of the project buttons. I'd probably either enlarge them and center them in the space or put them side by side and center them. I'd also make the email link in the bottom bar the same size as your "TMCC Spring 2014".

Otherwise, a good layout. Now I want to go sit on a beach ...

I really like this design the background image is amazing its so nice and clear and the blue color goes with the water theme you have going on. The only thing I could find was to maybe separate the two project buttons to give them each a little more space in between them.

The colors and imagery work very nice together, nice job. The only thing I'd suggest is to change the scale of your buttons a bit and try placing them a little farther apart. Nice page though.
