Final Project - Website FIN



This is it. The finished project...

It looks nicer on the bigger screen than my tiny 21" across monitor at home. Yay~

Final Project: Website WIP 4



More screens of the website's progress. I feel better about it, I guess?

I mean, I'm trying to find more interview things with Scott in them. The earliest I could find in video was 2010... and that's 2 years old and doesn't exactly reflect him accurately for now. So I chose to go with the recording of him at PAX 2012 with the creators of Penny Arcade and Wil Wheaton playing a D&D campaign in front of everyone.

I mean, it has vulgarity in it... I sort of feel like it shouldn't be there, but at the same time it's really funny and it is part of him (and them) as a person (people) so... *shruggs*

I guess I should see it like I saw Martha Rostler in a sense: this is who these people are, and you can't just sensor the man and assume you're painting an accurate picture of him by doing so...

Final Project - Website WIP 3


Final Project - Website WIP 2


Eh. I don't know. I mean, this looks like a website, but it seems so plain to me in comparison to everyone else's I've seen. This is kind of his thing though, the crisp, clean structure of the comic. Maybe I need to change the banners or whatnot.

I'm technically almost done. All the info I wanted to present is right there, and the only thing I really need to do is create the banner buttons that link to his projects and insert his Twitter, FB and Tumblr links as well as some link-outs to some of the people and pages mentioned in his information.

Maybe I should somehow insert some of his character in the layout. There's all that space to the side, and if the banners don't take up too much room, I could totally do a floating image of one of the PVP characters coming out of the side of the column :T

Final Project - Website WIP1

Miiggghhhttt have forgotten about updating this thing when I started getting into the crunch of the last few weeks of the semester. Thankfully, I don't find this project hard, it's just a little constraining at times. But working within constraints is a good thing, shows your problem solving skills.

This is my current WIP for my simple website, which is on Scott Kurtz:
