project two roughs ..!

Post by aslychsm »

HERE THEY ARE!

Almost a whole week late. (:

I've been out of town since last Friday, and completely shut down as far as homework goes. It took everything I had just to throw these silly roughs together. Sad, but true.

So basically, I only wanted a limited amount of eggs. To emphasize exclusivity. But I plan on adding a bunch of additional products, such as gear, potions, and guides. Those are the categories, and I have many ideas for items to sell within those categories. The first image is just to kinda show what each product will look like when selected.

I apologize that these were late, I don't expect anyone to leave feedback! Anyways, thanks for reading, hope everyone is enjoying their spring break!

Ooooh! I think, like Kiwako and Delanie's, we have another "blender" on our hands here.

Firstly, great work on the layouts. They continue your branding and excellent layout from your live site. They're very evocative and easy to follow.

I think it would do best if you mashed 'em all together. I'd fold your Hatchling listings into catalog and make Dragons more informational. I'd take your third page and add a fourth category to it; Hatchlings. Then have your second layout be the Hatchling listings with maybe a line or two of description added under each, and then have your first design be your individual listing.

I would have also like to have seen a little bit more difference between your layouts as well. Otherwise, top notch, professional caliber work!

I like the little icons you made for fire, ice, ect. I think you might want to emphasize those a little more. To really put emphasis on each egg you might want to have a separate page for each egg? Or maybe a drop down menu where you pick the fire, ice, ect icons? There are lots of ways to go here, like your layouts though.
Design may be king, but typography is the crown.

Ok so you have a dragon egg selling section and a catalogue page what a great idea! I like the style and the colors of the eggs seem to fit really well into your design. The blurred out back ground was a great choice it gives it more mystique!

Hey Ashley,

I'm also enjoying the little icons indicating elements, they add a nice touch and I think they further emphasize information rather than just spewing out a block of text. I think it would do well to bring in just a touch of informative text, however, even if it's just a one-sentence description.

Hi Ashley! I absolutely love these girl! I already told how I love the concept you chose and now your product pages are going to complete your whole website...Great Job! :-) All three of your designs contain simplistic layouts which would be easy to navigate through and your color scheme, font choice & imagery all go perfect together. One suggestion (you might already have a plan for this) that I have for you is to include more information/content about each of your products on the catalog page. Also, I would add a quantity input. Otherwise, I cannot wait to see your final site! :-)

Hi Ashley,
I really like your concept and cant wait to see the final website and buy a hatchling, lol!
I think your roughs look good for not doing too much with them.
I like that you added background photos that make you think of flying dragons :)
I would try to make the products larger, they are kind of small in the Hierarchy of the design.
Good Job,
Georgia

I love the idea of adding additional items, and keeping the dragons as very exclusive items. I think your layout is still very clean and looks very professional which helps sell your website's items. Awesome job as usual!

Wow,Ashley, excellent! Very cool design on dragon eggs,icons. Also good thinking on catalog,and very good on type management.Only one very minus thing I think can pick is the text color on the bottom of your product rough, the dark blue can be lighter or brighter, or use white will have a better contrast , and more clear. Great job over all: )

I really like the concept and products!
That's very unique, and it catches my eye!

On the categories page, I feel it too much white spaces.
I know you want to make very clean layout, but I think you can use these spaces more effectively.


Other than that, I really like it!
Good job!
