What is Graphic Design?

Most people think that Graphic Design is just pictures and logos, but it is not just that. Graphic Design is a way of expressing yourself. You can express yourself in words, color, shapes, images and spacing. As you can see Graphic Design is allot more than people thin. Most of Graphic Design is sociological, trying to figure out how to capture the audience and keep them engaged. Web designers use text and images to capture people and get them to look at there website. Posters and adds are created by graphic designers who are hired by companies to sell there products. So Graphic Design is more than people think and I hope you learned something about it.

New Index Page

Index page link:  http://eravensonline.net/students/823cw21/ In this project we revamped our index page. We integrated things we learned from recent projects. This includes color schemes, depth, and Google web fonts. I used the background to create a good looking color scheme. I used shadows and CSS ribbons to add depth to the site. I chose two google web fonts to add, one for the headings and one for the text.

Smitty's Lawn and Garden website redesign

For this site I redesigned www.smittyslg.com to be a mobile first site. This was a very interesting redesign because it forced me to follow the same content of the old site while having me design it in a way that works on mobile. I can't say that I like doing mobile first but I know it's importance and I should get used to it.

Don't Make Me Think chapter 1

 This makes you think because you can't tell if the logo is or is not a link. Also the titles look like links but are not obvious.  This makes you think because the Bing logo does not look like a link but it is. Also the icons are not standard so you have to think what they are. The red heading looks kind of like a link but it is not clear. The black text does not look like links but it is.
