Hi there, I like the monochromatic approach you have taken for your design. I'm not sure a color rollover will add anything to the design, in fact, it might detract from the design. Maybe a glow rollover effect in monochrome or some other type of rollover animation would work better than color to st...

Hi there, I think you have ended up with a solid design. I am looking forward to see how the flash scrolling of images turns out on your live site. The only thing that doesn't work for me is the { } you have used to enclose your link text. I think they make the link text hard to read and really don'...

Well I can't get enough of the tagging graphic style you have focused your design on. I think your design is the coolest one in the class. I feel like street art is under appreciated in general and I really love the way that you have brought it to life in your design. I am very interested to see the...

Hi Jenny, I am glad you went with this design. I feel it is very creative because of the original graphics you have drawn. And I like the alternating colors on the paragraph as well as the paragraph text itself. Really good work.

Hi there,
I think you are on your way to a solid redesign. I cannot, however, get past all of the misspellings on the design copy. They're everywhere! They make it hard to focus on the design aspects of the site. I'd like to see the design after you have spell-checked it.

Hi Rebecca, The bubble gum idea was so creative and unique that I am glad it will turn into a live site. The addition of the pack of gum and the sick of gum and the modifications you made to the top of page illustrations all really work for me. You've tightened up the design and still held on to the...

Hi Donna, well you know from my previous comments that I loved both designs from the preliminary round. My thoughts remain unchanged: I love the vanishing perspective in the photograph of your final design, although one of the strengths of the other design was the super photo which was actually of y...

Hi there,
I really like the photo and the graphics surrounding it, and I think orange and blue is a bold color palette choice that you have implemented well. I do feel like the body text is off on its own and lacks a reference point to the other page elements.

Hi there,
I think the final site came together well. Nice work. EK

Well I really like the canvas texture idea and the large bold text links are cool. I just hope that the body text at the bottom of the page will be spaced appropriately and large enough that it doesn't get overwhelmed by the texture of the background.
