What makes a good website
http://www.gringo.nu/

This website is very well laid out and extremely clever. It is very easy to scroll around. This website is an interactive agency that takes you to other designer websites such as a sticker website, virtual car design, card designing site etc. It does not have too much text to read and it is separated into little paragraphs easily readable paragraphs. The logo of each company on this website has the use of animation. For instance on the Agencia Tudo webpage they have used a sticker effect on their logo. You can peel the logo off the screen by clicking on it and dragging it. When you release it the logo places itself back on the screen and turns into a drawing. The use of animation in the whole website is very good as when you click on a menu icon the screen will move up and below it show another screen with the company you choose using a 3D cube effect.

What makes a bad website

http://www.henkgruppen.nl/

This website I find is a bad website. I say this because it has a dull background and the text is far too small. The graphics are pretty poor and they have a lot of free space around the screen. The menu icon shown in the middle of the screen is unclear as the text blends in with the background. Beside each menu icon it shows a little plus signs for the icons you are not on and a subtract for the one you are on


















What make a good myspace

http://myspace.com/jonibarnes

I think that this myspace page is good because it stands out on the page with the design in the background. The page has been made so that you can move the information without moving the background which is a clever effect. The information has also been set out in see-through boxes so you can still see the background pattern is. The text on this myspace page used to be unclear as some of the writing was in dark blue in black boxes but the creator of it (Jonathan Baines) has edited it so it is bright yellow wring in the black boxes.

What makes a bad myspace

Coral X’s Myspace
This myspace does not yet have a web address but to find it you would have to go to http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=187051133&MyToken=8f28ebce-25c3-44af-ba29-1b15988ac1fe.

What I don’t like about this myspace is that the text is too small and unclear. Most of it is in white and some in dark purple which is not good on a black background
