Hi there, I like how the final site has come together. I especially like the out of focus picture for the quote background. And I don't think the page background color gradient is overdoing it. I think it works well. I am not as thrilled about the background for the resources link, the resources tex...

Hi there. I think the final design came together nicely. I am still disappointed that the social media and TMCC logos aren't following the trademark holders' usage requirements. Could cause trouble for a client if you did this for a client site.

Hi there, Well I love what you've done with your name and I agree the pic is great. I am not in love with the big white bars that separate the different types of content. Also, while I get the minimalist approach, I still feel like the page content is smooshed. Perhaps increasing the padding around ...

Hi there,
I like the design as I feel it achieves your goal of feeling like a 90s video game. I just wonder what you are going to put in the 'plenty of space' area. Also the facebook and other social media buttons aren't being used according to the trademark owners' requirements. Could cause trouble.

Hi Aharon,
I like what you've done, the site feels very graphic designish to me, which is a super plus. I also like your idea about the use of color with the rollovers. Still disappointed that the TMCC logo isn't being used according to the TMCC logo use requirements though.

I like the old design better. I felt it was more daring and imaginative. If you go with the new version I'd change the body copy font; this on is too hard to read.

Hi everyone. So people thought my preliminary designs looked like a politician/real estate agent's web site and not so much like a graphic designer's page. This is really funny because before I started school at TMCC, I was in fact a real estate agent. I guess old habits die hard. Anyways, based on ...

Hi there: I like both of your designs, I especially like the graffiti concept. And since you mentioned your love of creating typefaces, I'm wondering did you created the typeface used on the buttons? Its really a great button typeface, and even if you didn't design it I like the look a lot. Also, I ...
