Re: Vote on team 1094's New Web Design

Some advice:

Look into Responsive Web Design. I'm not sure what CSS frameworks you're using right now, but Foundation is particularly awesome and makes it easy to have a responsive layout that scales from large displays all the way down to phones.

Subjectively, design #2 feels more "modern" and the lighter color scheme of text/content regions makes it easier to read.

Re: Vote on team 1094's New Web Design

Is the fact that the lightbulb and robot are on the far reaches of the screen a feature or a bug? I can't determine whether or not that's just my browser being weird.

Honestly, they are a little distracting being so far to the sides of the webpage. I see why you would want the light bulb on the front page, but having it that far out causes me to lose focus on the center of the page. You could move the light bulb icon below 'Follow Us' to make it as visible as possible. For the Robot Icon, you could have a pull down menu for past robots or team history.

Personally, I find website 1 to be too dark. If you add some more white, it would look much better!

Re: Vote on team 1094's New Web Design

both websites are meant for a screen of 1024px wide. so it will show up far away on any screen that is over 1024px.

for website being to scary (sigh) it is only the prototype of what I have made. the newest one (of site #1) is now on v4.0 and that was v1.5 the new one has more white but not so much that it is overpowering
