Template Review

Marie Provence:

I feel that the template for the site is well designed for a starter idea. I feel that some of the imagery could be pushed some because of the title of her web site is Marie's Nest. I'm expecting to be presented with a site full of nested items like found objects scanned in and used as elements to enhance the viewer visiting. The overall layout is clean and very easy to navigate and the colors evoke a sense of peace/neutrality which could be showing some emphasis to colors found in nature. There are some key issues to address with the CSS in the navigation and broken links. So far it is a good start and it can only get better with working on these suggestions.



Elliot Boyette:

I like the idea of a site that is hand drawn. There are a lot of sites out there that try to do this but they strictly keep it modern by standards. This is more true to content and I feel the layout works well with what you are presenting. I feel though that some of your items like the navigation and header could be scaled down some to fit the screen better. Not to mention if you think about how this is going to be viewed at 800 x 600 resolution it may be super insanely big. The font choice is a nice touch for keeping with the idea of a comic driven site and the cogs definitely add to the concept of a robotic entity churning out comics on its projector stomach.
