The re-design competition for school. Gallaxy Communications Redesign Here is a screenshot of the original site:
It may load slow, and I haven’t actually tested it in Explorer yet so it may just look like a pile of crap.
Even if I don’t win (but fingers crossed that I do, people)… I am pleased with the design and it stretched what I know how to do. It’s done entirely in photoshop and image ready. I’ve never used those programs for a design before. Also not sure if I uploaded it correctly, I didn’t put into Dreamweaver, just exported the html file from image ready. I also don’t know, yet, how to integrate the design using css.
So, yes… at least it’s done. Onward to other stuff.

So, I thought this blog might be connected to my new domain/portfolio site but thought different of it so another name change… I’ll still be mainly be talking about design stuff,like this:
Ok…so this doesn’t actually count as design stuff but I am freaking out a bit about my internship. I haven’t had 2 minutes during the day to do any sort of forward research on possible places much less any phone calling. By April I need to secure an unpaid internship consisting of 90 hours over 15 weeks. One guy in my class last semester actually got one where he telecommuted. sweet!
In usability class we are doing a real re-design job for a real company with a real existing website. The company has worked out something with my instructor whereby everyone in his classes is to come up with a design concept and they will pick the one they like the best. That person will work with the company in re-designing their site and could possibly win a laptop! I’m so excited about this, and I think my design concept is a good one. It does stretch my abilities a bit but I need to expand my design concepts.
So, that’s it…
