I really liked the design in Dean Oakley's website because it was unique. The design has characteristics of a gradient and graphic that make the website inviting and fun but still looks very professional. The graphics create a focal point for the design. The colors chosen also give the site balance.

I liked this design because the the home is easily accessible and displays the highlights with a rotating menu. The design used big blurred photographs as a background for the site and I thought it gave the site a lot of dimension and looked good. I think the site shows all apps really good. The colors are grays and red which compliments all of the pictures and main. Overall I thought this vector site was a really cute and well composed.

Web design with Adobe Illustrator

 I was surprised to see all of the ways Illustrator can be used to make different designs. From what I read, I think that it is a very good tool for making web designs. I learned how to texture a design in three methods on Illustrator. The "9 Slices" scaling tool looks like a very good way to resize an object without distorting it. I also learned how to keep the design consistent by viewing all elements at once. From the article I learned many different ways to utilize and use Illustrator. I can see how Illustrator is a very good tool, as photoshop is. Overall I am impressed by Illustrator and want to continue to get better at it.
