GRC 275 Learning and Discussion Forum

Here is what I came up with for my first preliminary. After seeing everything you guys had to say about my final project 1, I went and took my background out and I will recreate my navigation so it is not images. Here you go...

Looks good I think I like the new no background approach. Im not a big fan of the gray box surrounding each product. Think about changing that to a brighter color, it seems like that dark of a color brings everything down and doesn't make me want to but anything. Apart from that your form labels are all misaligned, but that is just a PS thing, just pointing it out because it looks sloppy.

I think your form is huge. You could decrease it by 25-50% and I think it would look better. I like how you staggered the products page, it's an interesting approach.

I do agree the product page looks too long, make things a little smaller I think it'll add.

I like your contact page! : )

I love the minimalism; however, it feels rather bare. Perhaps have a subtle texture in the background. and maybe more color here and there would do nicely.

Nice reworking of your design. I like the simplification throughout. It really helps the images and colors stand out. I like the little fleur-de-lis up top. I think the function as a nice framing device and give a little splash of color

However, it does seem to go a little farther into the minimalism in some spots and gets a little dull. Loose the gray boxes around your products and ad a hint of texture to the background or some very subtile thing to ad a bit of visual interest. Perhaps an enlarged faded back flour-de-lis at the bottom behind your content.

Good work and I like the direction you're going in.

I like the new look. I think also the grey box needs a little work. I would try to make it more subtle and less noticeable. I think the type for each is a little hard to read, so I might try a different font to see if it might work out better. Good job.
