Design: Week 14

This week for the design team was kind of slow because of break. We only had Monday to meet. So Monday we went through the thirty or so odd pictures and discussed what needed to be changed in order for them to work on the website. Some common problems for the pictures we have include some of them being out of focus causing fuzziness and blurring. Some of the pictures would obviously need cropping as well. This is a definite must for many of the pictures because they either have inappropriate material in them (such as beer signs and such) or a lot of empty and unneeded space. To do this I brought some of the photos into Photoshop to retouch. I played around with cropping them in different aspect ratios to be used for different parts of the website. I also played with some of the color levels as they look off, probably because of poor camera quality. Despite this work on the photos we still need to determine what photos are going to be placed where on the website, as there are sections for donations, careers, and volunteering. Once we able to figure out where these photos work best better and final image editing can be applied.
