Wiz khalifa Website

This is Wiz Khalifa's actual website homepage.  It is  a good layout.  At the very top of the page is something new that has been done, whether it is a new video or a new single.  Below that is the navigation.  I like how the navigation is broken up.  It is in two columns with three possible tabs in each column.  Then there are products that you can buy from the store.  At the bottom is the community section.  It is all about the community of Wiz Khalifa.  It includes his fans, fan's artwork, and possible discussions that can be had.  I have never seen a section based solely on the community on the homepage.  I think that is a good idea.  This relates to what we are doing in class because we should think about different ideas that make our website stand out like this one does.

Wiz Khalifa Pre Website

After i typed in Wiz Khalifa website into google and clicked is website this is the first thing that popped up.  This is interesting because  I have not seen this on a website.  I like it because it shows that he cares about his fans.  It shows how easily you can do it as well.

Chocolate Clothing

I think this is a good layout for a website.  The social networking icons are towards the top of the page which is different from most websites.  Also the bottom has the usual options plus the different credit cards they take.  I do think the name could use some work however. 

Finish Line

This is a really strong layout for a website.  There are so many different options of what you could look at but it is not to much.  Some websites can make a lot of options look like there are too many option and some like this site looks good.  I like how the Stand out box has images of different products and that is is a slideshow with different products. Also, I like how the different brands are close to the middle of the page as more options.  On the left side, the navigation is broken up by the most popular.  I really like the layout of this website.  It relates to what we are doing in class because we need to create a website and should know how to successfully place all the different items on our website.

Model Website

This is a good website.  I like the navigation bar.  The pointy object pointing down adds to the layout.  It is a small detail but makes it look interesting.  Also, the possible links one could go to make sense.  She is a model so show what she has modeled.  A gallery is smart. Secondly she has a  "my experience" link.  It shows previous work.  The top part is an introduction to her wep page.  This relates to what we are doing in class because we our creating our own website and need to know how to add good, strong details.

Bad Layout

This is not a good websight.  The light blue background is awful.  The tab colors do not go with the blue.  Also, it is too bear in the middle area.  If there is going to be this ugly ass background, at least put more onto it so it is less visible.  This relates to what we are doing in class because this is a prime example of what not to do. 

Richard's Website

I like the colors of this website.  The yellow on the black background really stands out.  It is not too bright of a yellow which is good.  This relates to what we are dong in class because we need to know what colros worl well together and what colors do not look good together. 

Grafpedia

This is a strong layout.  The navigation has strong tabs.  There are multiple different areas to go.  You can look at different work they have done or buy it.  Also, I like how there is a blog that you can look at.  It is a good way to see what other people have to say.  I like how it has some of the services that are possibe and there is the tab in the navigation bar.  Also, there are the special offers which always interest a person. This relateds to what we are doing in class because we need to know how to create a succesful layout like this layout is. 

Adventures

I like the idea of this website.  I love going on adventures.  It is awesome that someone made a website of theirs.  Hopefully they are actually good websites.  I really like the background.  It is a perfect fit.  Adventures almost always involve traveling somewhere.  One thing that could be changed is how everything that is on the homepage is in a rectangle in the center.  I think this is very typical and boring.  It would be better if the eye had to travel. It would have been good if it was more spread out but on an opaque background to still see the map background.  This relates to what we are doing in class because we are creating websites. 

TRS

I like the layout of this site.  The navigation is very interesting. I can see movement when I look at it.  I do think it is too simple.  It feels like it's missing something.  I think if there was some color added to the white area it could add something to the website.  This relates to what we are doing in class because we need to pay attention to the details of websites such as our own website. 

Cool Finds

First, I think this is an interesting website.  There is a lot going on and it looks messy which is not good.  However, I do like that there are two sale alerts in the middle of the page.  It is right above the products that are being sold.  It is well placed.  This relatres to what we are doing in class because we need to know what to do and what not to do on a website.  This is a good example of what not to do, for the most part. 

Baked Goodies

This is a really strong homepage for a website.  I really like the layout of most of the information on here.  The three pictures at the top show the talent that the bakery has.  It is already starting off good.  The circels towards the middle of the page are eye catching.  There are so many options for doing stuff on here.  There is a ton of information on here but it is not overwhelming.  This relates to class because All of these factors play a part in what we are doing, creating a website.

Wino

I really like the image on this layout.  It captured my attention right away.  This relates to what we are doing in class because we need to look at different possible backgrounds to use for our own websites. 

Layout

This is a cool layout for a website.  I really like the location of the navigation.  I feel like it is very different from the usual places.  Also, the way it goes around the name of the site.  I also, like the location of the sign in bars and how it has information around them.  It is well organized.  This relates to what we are doing in class because we are making our own websites and have to consider the layout options. 

Hobbies

There are millions of hobbies in the world.  One of them being art.  This is a website for all kinds of art.  This webstite has a great navigation.  It shows different styles, different artists, collections of art and art you can buy.  This is a good website for art.  This relates to what we are doing in class because we have to create a home page for a website that has to do with a hobby. 

Polo Ralph Lauren

Polo Ralph Lauren is a huge brand of clothing.  Most of the clothes are a classier clothing.  It is one of my favorite brands.  This relates to what we are doing in class because we are creating our own home page for a commercial site and this would be included in that.  I like this site becuase it is easy to understand and I like how the navigation is broken up into the different categories.  For examplem, they have men, women, kids, baby, home and sale.  It is very easy to understand and navigate my way through the site.  Essentially it is easier to spend money now.

Kendrick Lamar

Every musician has a website.  And if they don't they need to get one.  It is such a good way to get your music, information about tour dates and tickets etc out into the open.  This relates to what we are doing in class because we have to create a music website for class.  I like this website because he is my favorite artist and I like hearing his songs and finding out new information about him.  Also websites can show interviews between artists and other artists or interviewers.  Again you can learn so much information from that.

CSS

This is a css website.  I really liked this website because the layout had a lot of information and different areas i could go to; however it was very clearly explained what it was once I put my mouse over it.  Also, as i would scroll down, the "second page" over lapped the first page which I have never seen before.   It was awesome.  This relates to what we are doing in class because we learned some information about css websites and what they are like.  I really enjoyed this website.

Feed Stitch

Feed stitch is a website where you can combine all your like feeds into one common genre.  This is a great example of a two column website.  The header is at the top.  There are two columns with information.  At the bottom there is the copyright and feedback section.  This relates to what we are oing in class because we learned how to make a two column web page layout.
