For the final review I choose to write about my final project, Anytime Vintage.
My groups Anytime Vintage website has all the elements such as, balance, unity, emphasis, layout, color, texture and Navigation. I believe that our website was well balanced because we had the side bar and listed what we had on our side bar and then we always had images of our shoes in the middle of the page. For unity my group made sure that everything was very evened like having the pages look the same for when you clicked for a new category. For emphasis we had a CSS effect that when you hovered around an image of a shoe one would show up the colors its suppose to be and the others would turn black and white so that, that one shoe would stand out to you and you could learn more about it. For our layout, I believe that our layout was very simple and is easy to follow but at the same time is was suppose to keep your attention. For our color we chose to do different colored browns, and like tan/coral colors, we chose those colors because we wanted to make it have a vintage look to it and I feel like we did a good job at doing so. For the texture part of our website we had a brown leather background because it ties in with the whole shoe website and also when people see leather they think of old..such as how leather has to be aged and back in the days most things were made out of the leather so that is why we chose that texture. Finally for our navigation we chose to do a simple navigation website so it is easy to get too and so you know where to click. Our’s is very basic i feel like because when you go to our homepage you have a choice to either click the side bar and go from there or click on the images of the didn’t shoes that are centered on our homepage and that will navigate you to that category as well. To critique the effectiveness of our websites at guiding the user through the content was pretty self-explainatory.. when you go to the home page we have a short description of what our website is and how to use it and it goes from there. You could click the different types of shoes and we put descriptions of the shoes and how they were vintage and what was more modern about them today and then we provided a website for where you could get the pair of shoes. The improvements we could make for this website is put more information about it and tell people how we started our anytime vintage website.
I believe that our text for our description for the homepage could be a tad bit bigger than what it is now. Lessons i’ve learned while doing this project that it takes a lot of effort and everyone needs to be willing to help out. Overall, I think that our group did a great job at designing anytime vintage and we made it easy to get our point across. We all worked very well together.
