    Likes: 1. when you first enter the site, ROBERT KENT appears and two panels of one photo appear like doors, inviting you into the site 2. clean set up, white background adds to the lightness of his photography 3.in Portfolio, a whole side panel of thumbnails of photos appears, making it easier to pick and choose between photos 4. clients list--> allows viewer to see what kinds of companies these photos are used for 5. link to his organization, "compassionate eye foundation" Dislikes: 1. sometimes the website will completely turn into a black blank page if you leave it alone for too long 2. portfolio is pretty limited; only 4 different subjects of photos, pretty specific 3. side panel is at the bottom of the page, I would rather have it on the side or top of the page for convenience

    Likes: 1. Majority of the page is pictures/videos of current works 2. Hover on the left side of page - hides/reveals which section you're in, but always has the "home page" button as an option. A creative way of navigating through the site, while maximizing space for visuals. 3. Has an easy "Pause/Play" option for all videos. 4. Simple, clean graphics and colors are still made interesting by their level of interaction and composition. 5. The optional view option on the right (has thumbnail pictures for each sub page) - is something different. 6. Hovering to the Left hides/reveals (don't need to click and wait for loads) Dislikes: 1. In the portfolios section, the reel starts playing automatically, with music. 2. The left and right view options can be a little confusing - some people might not know that each side contains the same info/pages. 3. Every visual aid is pretty much a reel with music - gives viewer little control of what they see and when they see it.

    Trying the link now, it doesn't work... maybe he didn't pay for November domain But, here's my critique: Home Page Redundancy: The button links in the header lead to the same place as the large title buttons along the left side of the page. On second level: I like the close (X), back () buttons. They read well in a line with the title. The page content is small. It is obvious the layouts were made for a different media prior to the website. Having a third level with enlarged text/images would be helpful for understanding the content. Contact page: Having direct contact from the website is a good idea.

    Likes: 1. layout is creative and colorful-- mexican themed, opening page is mexican objects and clothes on a line--beautiful 2. comments section allows viewer to comment-- allowing criticism to go from viewer straight to artist 3. portfolio is filled with lots of photography, many subjects, bright and colorful, it's hard to get bored looking at such vibrant imagery 4. at the bottom of the page, while viewing his photos, there is a sheet of film negatives that allow you to browse through thumbnails of the photos and select certain ones instead of having to go through the entire batch Dislikes: 1. for such an awesome website, he doesn't have any english translations, which is not to say that every other language should also be translated into an english version, however, if I didn't know any Spanish- like many many people around the world, I would be completely confused. 2. no biography, who is he? 3. no way to contact artist unless the viewer leaves his/her contact information first 4. in the "Links" section there are links to what looks like 5 different artists' sites, however, all lead to one photostream of a flickr account 5. for not having a biography, I think it's a little ridiculous to have an "Awards" section

  • Navigation: Which one do I use and where in the world do I start?Research shows that confusing navigation is the number one way to lose customers. If people have a hard time finding their way around your website, they're just going to give up and leave. And when you have great products that really sell themselves like Brainwaves does, you don't want your navigation to get in the way of a sale. When you enter on the Brainwaves homepage, there are three different ways to navigate the site. There is a global horizontal bar organized by age group. There's a global vertical bar that's not particularly organized at all and mixes functional (shop by price, age) with topical. And there's another featured section in the middle that is also organized by topic, some of which are in the left sidebar and some that aren't. The housekeeping links such as about us and contact are buried in the footer. While they need to be there, they also need to be more prominent "above the fold" (visible without having to scroll).With the variety of toys for sale on Brainwaves, I like the idea of having two sets of navigation: one for age and one for toy category. It seems sensible that people would use one of those two systems to browse. However, they should be kept entirely separate from each other. Research also shows that users scan web pages, and won't bother to look at lists with more than 5-7 links. If you have more than that, break them up into categories and subcategories that are logical and easy to scan. Always keep your customers in mind; organize your navigation in a way that makes sense to them, call each link what they would call it ("educational toys" takes visitors to the home page, so call it "home"!), and make it easy to scan and browse. If you aren't sure if your organization or labeling (words in the links) make sense to your customers, test it! Find a friend who is in your target market and ask his/her opinion.

    Pros: 1.Does a good job showcasing their work. 2.Clear simple navigation. 3.Different backgrounds on each page, don't compete with one another but rather work nicely with each page. Cons: 1.Hovering over images makes them just enough larger to be very distracting/obnoxious. 2.Unnecessary/obnoxious scroll bar in some pages. 3.Dead links on the front page.

    Pros 1) Consistent layout makes the portfolio easy to read 2) Text and product titles are unique to each project 3) Nice variety of sketches, renderings and physical prototypes Cons 1) Lacks a table of contents or sub category dividers, which would tell the reader what they're seeing 2) Cover and final pages have a competitive aesthetic with the rest of the portfolio 3) Too much writing to read everything...important text should be different (larger, colored, bold etc.)

    Pros: -Interesting work -Large pictures of work/ promo things immediately give feel of street art - Specific categories Cons: - Should use different and smaller text - Could fit everything into the screen so viewer doesn't have to scroll to see the full page - In about section could be more personal instead of link to wikipedia

    3 likes: All the projects have an image on the top page, so you can see everything at once and also select projects easily High contrast background to images looks good Navigation highlights where you are 3 dislikes: the different types of projects aren't immediately clear the font is very small the images on the top page look similar, so the breadth of services they offer isn't clear

    3 things I like: simple background gives the images "pop" scrolling through project photos is easy text is well-written and to the point 3 things I dislike: the variety of projects is not apparent navigation is not consistent from different parts of the site if you don't move the cursor to the image, you don't know that there are more images

    Pro's: 1. All her information is available on the home page 2. Personalized content: she really offers a lot about herself 3. A large inventory of images Cons; 1. The site is confusing: moving between pages is not very clear, it almost seems as if her artwork pages are different sites altogether 2. The organization of information could be clearer (maybe categories instead of everything presented together at once) 3. The "enter" page should only function as just that, I don't think the image displayed should work as links to other pages at this point.
