Week 7A

During class I worked for the first hour or so on my website and then met with two people to critique each others' webpages.

I met with Sam and Leah.

This is what Sam had to say:
  • Create a larger header (the one I had originally was a little small she felt)
  • Incorporate more color into my design.
  • Photo gallery-> rearrange into a slide show
This is what Leah had to say:
  • Work on my spacing a bit, While things are spaced out, I could add in a little more white space to break things up a little more
  • She also commented on adding more color to my page.


So this is what I had at the end of class.



New header, a bit larger than the last.



I incorporated a slide show of images from the last Donut Fest onto the home page.


 I also created a footer (icons non-functional). I wanted the pink to look like icing and added a donut color as the base. I used the same pink as the nav bar from the top to tie them together.


For my vendors page I used the logos of each one as a link to their site. Later I added text underneath each one restating their name since a few of them are a little hard to read.


I also created a header for the Vendors page.



Last but not least I touched up the intro paragraph and added a button to purchase tickets.

Week 6B

I was not in class this day. I had some technical issues with my laptop and had to take it to Geek Squad so I was without my laptop for almost three days.

I mistakenly did not back up my files on my USB and therefore could not continue working on my site. Lesson learned.

Remember to always back up your files!

Week 6A





Week 5: Outside the Classroom

For homework we needed to work on coding the homepage of our website and have about 25% of graphics done for it as well.

This is what I have so far:





I am also going to have a page for Photos, Vendors, and a simple contact page with a map of the location.

The simple icons you see are for the freebies that are being handed out during the event.

Where you see the grey block under the header I want to put an illustration of some donuts and either a champagne glass or beer bottle since there will be mimosas and beer being served at the event.

Week 5B

During class today we had almost the entire time to work and each of us met with Pannafino to show him our sketches and ask him any questions about our website.

Week 5A

Today in class we started out demoing the coding from GRID and creating a responsive nav. bar.





After that, Pannafino had us pair up with someone in our row (who we don't sit next to) and share our design ideas and sketches. I paired up with Natalie who sits two seats down from me.

For homework we then had to create design sketches for our sub pages and next class we will each meet with Pannafino to go over what we have.

Week 4: Outside the Classroom

For homework over the weekend we had to read and work through GRID ( http://adamkaplan.me/grid/ ). I took notes and also put the coding into sublime although nothing came up in the webpage so I have to go back and see what I missed.

We also had to take tracing paper, or paper you can see through pretty well, and lay it over top our wireframes and start creating the design of the home page of both our mobile and webpage event pages. I am still not 100% sure how I want my design to look like but for now I created something simple and easy to follow.

This is what I have so far:


Mobile:


 Webpage:







I do plan on creating a few more designs but this is what I started with.
