I finished my design drafts but was unable to upload them to the moodle gallery page for Web Design Production. I did however show them to my tutorial teacher in my tute for feed back which she gave me.
She told me that my illustration that I had hand drawn and scanned in looked very 'trippy'. I was shocked at not having realised that earlier. I thought it was quite funny as it had already created the 'look and feel' of my site being information on a celebration called 'Stonefest'.
She also commented on the oeverall design of the pages, they looked very good but I had to watch the use of some of the colours. Some of the font coolurs were clashing with the background images which would make it harder for the audience to view the content.
Having taken a step back from the computer screen as well I realised that most of my pages were very cluttered with images, colours and composition, so I had to re think that.
My draft images are uploaded to my rationale (stonefest task part 1 &2) I opacitised the background to about 40% so page would seem less cluttered. It did the trick.
I also received feedback fo my menu choice, which was dangling images from the banner. The tutor said that it may be a bit difficult to do that with text when it comes down to the real website designing but was possible. I changed it anyways to just a list style type menu underneath the banner. I was a bit happy with it, i thought there was now just too much space being wasted but I wansn't too bothered with it. The menu however at the moment were in dot points so the tutor helped me convert it to an unordered list without points and reminded me that I needed some CSS styles in my work.
So I am slowly getting through my work. The feedback I received was really helpful for now, when I start designing my real Stonefest site.
