website interest

Cyphon

I liked the simple design, they do not have a whole lot going on. The color choices are very masculine so they apply to a broader range audience.



Ryan vs Clark

I really enjoyed the way they did the roll-over technique on the work examples


invisiblecreature

I enjoy the bold look with the black and yellow. LIke that the photos are large and in your face when you get to the page. my favorite part of a website is looking at photos so like that you attention is drawn right to them. Keep the information very clean and limited.



Paul Rand

simple, clean colors. Nothing over the top about the website
like the signature in the background


LAgraphico

really love how the drop down menus work, their colors and transition



Graphico.in

really sweet into to the page, but that is all i liked
dont really like how they limited the text boxes small or how the photos transition

didnt really like that his first page of website goes right to all his work. But it is different then most others. I like when you click on a piece it brings you to another page and the control keys are cool
really like their work

Michael Kors





Michael Kors

Michael Kors is one of my favorite designers. I absoltly am obessed with MK watches. Most of his work is very classy which I aspire to be.  Also he designs great handbags. I just wish that his stuff was in my budget! I also enjoy watching Michael Kors on the TV show, Project Runway. He has great feedback to all the aspiring artist. He is a great man with a great story as of how he made it big time.

I spend a lot of my time on Flickr getting good photo ideas. With my job here at JMU, working for the JMU photography services a lot of my work get published through the jmu account. It makes me feel very accomplished that I have photos that are published on the web for everyone to see.

Brand New




Brand New: http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/


I discovered the website Under Consideration: Brand New through one of my classes here at JMU. It was for a graphic design class. Ever since I am now obsessed with the website. I love being to see what people now days are working on for logos. It is interesting to see how products, companies and places are updating their logos to fit with current times. To see a logo that has been know as for years it is a shocker to see that they are working on a new creation. The ideas that people post help me with my work and creating things that I know with be appealing to the public's eye

Betterphoto is a great place for aspiring photographers. I love coming to this website to get ideas on how to better your work from the photographers on the site. I have even created an account and I was awards Editors Pick for one on my photos. I also spend a lot of time going through the winners of the contest that they have. Each photo is so different and gives me some great ideas that I apply into my work. I feel that I have become a better photographer just by looking at great pieces of work.

All-Breeds Blog


All- Breeds Blog: http://www.allbreedsblog.com/about-2/


All-Breeds Blog is one of the few blogs that I actually follow these days. Most people have no idea what this blog is about but I like it because it has to deal with my background of showing Holstein cows. This blog allows me to follow results of all the shows and updates on cows that are important.
The only problem that I have with this blog is that the layout is very boring. It defiantly needs to be jazzed up so it is more appealing to the viewers eye.

I was not here for class on Wednesday so I'm not quite sure what I should be doing
