Website and Stumper Reactions

The collages that each person made to go on their page are all really good and are very representational of each persons character. Natalie's website had a link to a page all about books, which I love. I love to read so I can understand why a whole page could be devoted to that passion. Both Natalie and Samantha incorporated pictures of their name in acrossticks (poems with one word down and other words branching out from the first letter). Color choice on the websites also affected my pick of 'favorite' websites. Samantha's color choices were spot on! Jaime used a gradient background for his soccer page which perfectly matched the color of the sports jerseys they were wearing in a picture on the page. I also liked the links on Jaime's page because they were very relevant and educational.

The stumper pictures for our class were all really good! It was hard to pick my favorites, but I narrowed it down to three. I really liked Jake's stumper picture, but I had absolutely no idea where it was (somewhere in Bell Center maybe?) Alex's picture was gorgeous and I really liked the fact it could have been used for anything, not just this assignment. Also, she picked an out of the way spot on campus, so some people may have trouble placing where it is. Paul's stumper was very funny, which is very reminiscent of his personality. It was great that he gave options for answers at the top of his page with links telling you if it was the correct answer or not-I thought that was a brilliant idea! Jordan used a distorted angle on her picture, which made it more difficult to figure out, but I think it was taken near 'the fountain' and Northrup.
