T6 Lesson 7Combining Images using Layer Masks fix cont.....

I have Fixed the spelling, Made Mirror alot bigger, changed the "more than" slogan to white and changed the colour.Also moved type up using the rule of the third. I am happy now......hope Chris is............Making the picture bigger really works .learning alot in this course!!

T6 Lesson 7Combining Images using Layer Masks fix

I Sort of got it right: Chris Wrote:In terms of design (for me) the "focus" of the layout is indistinct; it's dominated by the background gradient from bright white to electric blue. It overwhelms the window artwork which, in turn, competes with the copy for attention.

The "built to withstand the harshest reflection" phrase is nicely typeset and coloured and positioned...it falls naturally with the flow.

Easy fix might be to try a mild transition for the gradient from electric blue to darker electric blue.
I think this looks better. Thanks Chis

Lesson 9 Sketching layouts cont....... PAGE2

Learning that the humans look from the left top corner down to the bottom right, my plan of attack was to try and make the viewer to look at the logo then the picture, then the home, contact and specials buttons which are green, hopefully this way they will look at the whole page....Chris has advised me, that the black is dominating the page and the hero shot. and the buttons are all over the place.....so with some white space, order, grids, colour, unity some luck a bit of help and alot of thinking a wishing, I will pull it off, or my hair out.....I need a nap!
