HAI GUYS! Here is my final for project 3! It's not perfect, but I'm pretty happy with it considering it's my first attempt at responsive design. I did it, but I still have no idea what I was doing the whole time. :) Thanks for an amazing semester! Best of luck to everyone in your future endeavors! h...

Hi Chris, Super cool concept, great alternative to an inspirational figure! As a typeface that seems very clean and rounded, I feel like the first design is much more successful at representing that. I love that textured background, it gives the website a nice, subtle dimension. The colors are also ...

Hi Lingling, Great work! Between your two designs, I like the second one more! Both the colors and images are more engaging. The layout and set up is really effective and easy to navigate. The only change I would make is to slightly alter the placement of your home page image. The way you have it no...

Hi Kiwako, I love everything about your second rough. The logo, images, typefaces, simplicity, all of it! It looks like you have a lot of grungy textures you could use, I'd try and incorporate that more into your design. Maybe add a super light crackling texture to the main container. I'm also a fan...

Hi Paula, This. Is. So. Great. I'm sure Brian is going to love this! I'm definitely leaning more towards your second design, primarily because the imagery is more visually engaging. That homepage is awesome, and certainly draws the user in. My biggest suggestion would be to add a little more pizzazz...

Hi Elizabeth, Great job on providing so many options for project three! They are all very pretty and feminine looking, which I really like. My favorite of your designs is layout three, mostly because of the floral additions. The pink from the rose goes so nicely with that minty green, white and gray...

Hi Kami, I love Loish! I use to stalk her deviantart many years ago. Such an amazing artist, I'm glad you picked her. As your only design I think it really works! It's effective and easy to navigate. The imagery is lovely, and I'm especially fond of the background texture you incorporated. All the c...

Hi Dalanie Great concepts! I really feel like you've improved so much in the course of the semester! If I had to pick one, I'm really liking the Rayce Bird middle design, primarily for the creepy/mysterious background image. Making your navigation bar transparent was an awesome choice, but I'd take ...

Hi Jonathon, Definitely, definitely, definitely go with your first rough! All that imagery is to die for. It's super simply, clean, easy to read and navigate. I'm not so sure about the darker box beneath all the text, it still works really well, but I just think translucent white boxes would be bett...

Hi Danielle, Great choice in inspiration. My favorite of your two is the bottom design. I feel like the imagery, colors, and typography really blend together well! Stick with that sort of calming, soft feel of things. Plus, that little light/lantern thing hovering between the top headline is way coo...
