Blog 4. Fair Usage

Having searched around the Internet, I found many free images, text, fonts and other useful design product. Sites such as Free clip art . com , Barry's Clip art Services & Animation factory to name a few. They all offer free downloads of clips, but if you are after something less common or more complex, they offer these product at a reasonable rate.

My feelings about using copy written information, is you should have to compensate or site at any given time no matter what the situation call for. The creator deserves the credit, as you would feel the same way on your inventions.

A good example of how to site information has been given by one of our fellow students this quarter, Scott Laslo. As easily as it could have been to re- write his ideas, the honest and reputable way is to site him or in this case link his blog.

I another site called Nolo .com has some good advice plus some links that give you a clear understanding for different situation . This site claim limited usage is okay if criticizing or commenting.

In conclusion if you ever are unsure, quote the greater or research your information to deside how you can use it.

Blog 3

For my web site creation , I will be re-creating an existing one. This web site is www.garretsrodshop.com . In my previous blogs, you can find some of the reasons why I am working on this particular one. The main reason, it is a site that I own and it needs seriously up dating. The audience it is directed to are car enthusiast. People looking to have a custom or vintage car built or restored. The look I am going for will be similar , but this company has a new logo and there will be a much larger picture gallery. Another feature I want to include is a store front , to purchase goods, and have some Flash in the design.

Blog 2

I have found three different web sites that I would consider my favorite. The first is the
Food Network. For one I love to cook and find their site to be easy to use. If you want to find a recipe, you can use the search and it will list numerous links to what you are after. Try it.

The second web site is Rad Rides . The site is nicely put together and is how I see my site for my project to look. Easy to use, loads of pictures, and up to date information of the company.

The last site I find unique is the Beatles CirqueDuDoleil. I saw this show last year and look at the site shortly after. This site is very detailed with lots of flash , and video. If I had not seen the show before the web site, I am sure it would have interested me enough to go. Considering I an not a show type person.
These are my pics.
