Showcase of Web Project
We first made a simple yet functional design
where the navigation and content were clear and
easy to understand. After allowing some time for
the look and feel of the site to sink in, we
decided to enhance it with a few small visual
upgrades. Our next step was to receive feedback
from our group members and our instructors. Here
is where the dramatic visual changes took
place. We were again given several key areas of
the website to enhance and with this it was back
to the drawing board. Here, our final design
effort was successful.
