Website Review 8: Week 11 Reading

Deviant Art: Vector Images
This website has many different examples of vector graphics. I have included a couple of my favorites. The animal examples are exactly how I want to manipulate my wildlife photos. The images are stunning. I'm looking forward to learning how to create this type of artwork.

Website Review 7

Valley Musician's Repair
This website is too bogged down with too much text. The links all work correctly but the banner on the homepage is messed up. This site belongs to my boyfriend's personal business and needs a little work. The galleries are nice but could be more professional.

Website Review 6

Go 2 Africa
This website is easy to navigate around and most of the pages load very fast. The maps may take awhile to download. The text is simple, easy to read, and straightforward. It "cuts to the chase" by describing travel services, hotels, and tours quickly. There is no useless text to confuse the reader.

Website Review 5


This website has fast loading pages and is easy to navigate around. it is a very good website and has beautiful photos. it is also search engine friendly since I found it using the yahoo search engine. It is very entertaining, informative and well designed.

Images for Week 5

The photographer Edward Weston used linear rhythm as a design principle in many of his pictures. The lines are very dramatic and flow throughout the photographs. The contrast of texture and shape emphasizes the various subjects.

Edward Weston. Dunes. 1930.









Edward Weston. Halved Cabbage. 1930.










Edward Weston. Toadstool. 1931.

Goofing Around

I just feel like posting some pics of my pets goofing around in my apartment. The cat is Iggy and the dog is Piper.

Website Review 4

World Wildlife Photos
This website is very simple to navigate around. The site is used to sell photos taken by two photographers. I like the function of this website. I like how easy it is to find any photos you may like. However, it is very bland and boring. I think it would look better with a more colorful background. More pics or colors on the homepage couldn't hurt either.
