Project A - Iron Chef Design

Topic #1 - Mike Wieringo

What was your concept for this site?

My concept for this site was to make a design where the main focus was on the
imagery from Mike's drawings. I wanted his drawings to be the largest element
on the page so that the viewer would immediately be drawn to the image.

Drawing #1	Drawing #2	Drawing #3
With this design, I chose 4 images I thought were interesting and made them the main focus of the page.	In this design, I played with the navigation on the right side while still making the imagery on the right and at the bottom the main focus.	With this design, I decided to build a small collage of several images and use them as the header with a symmetrical layout.

Which design did you choose and why?

The design I chose was the second layout with stacked navigation. I chose
this layout because I thought the navigation would keep the page interesting
and I figured I could use the bottom pictures as navigation elements also.

What changes did you make to your revision and why?

The changes I made were a change in the color and the length of the top
bar where the header is. I changed the color to blue and extended it past
the head of the image to the right. I also added ".com" to the title bar just
to add a little touch to it and make it slightly interesting. I also added a
footer at the bottom and made it the same color as the top bar.
