RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH on thy Cerulean

Now we are learning things and all things about our color. We had some pretty good examples in class regarding the color yellow. Food thats yellow, people that are yellow, the emotion behind yellow, the actions behind yellow. EVERYTHING YELLOW. Even sour faces.
There's so much that you can find about one color.
I research my color Cerulean.

Here are a few methods and ways I found certain information - -
Things Cerulean

I just noticed that my color is mostly blue. So i get a lot of cool blue colors when i search for things Cerulean. 

I interviewed a few people about my color and these are some of the things i got from them:

Jorge - Mostly of subdued elegant serenity.
Rosie - When i think of that color i think of water and it feels clean.
Dontae - "I think of Cerulean City from the Pokemon show. Where the character acquires his water badge.
Spencer -  To me that color is Contentment with an abundance of energy.
Connie - The way i feel is fresh. If i heard a sound it would probably be waves. The taste would be of a caprisun. The one memory i will always have associated with that color is when my friend got married and our bridesmaid dresses were turquoise but more of the Cerulean hue.
Kendall - American Indians come to mind and their bright colors for their cultural gatherings.

Pick a Color any color!

We are choosing a color to use for our research. I have decided on Turqouise but the type that i am choosing is Cerulean. I really like that color and it's not my favorite but i like the concept of passivity behind it.

Here's what it looks like

Wandering_

I was looking through a random search for photos of seasons and i came across this great artist named Kyle Bean. His contact site is really well put together, neat, and easy to navigate through. In his site he uses mostly javascript, css style sheets, and dreamweaver. it works like a flash site almost.
This is his index.
www.KyleBean.com


Then you are able to navigate through the site by clicking on the small pictures that then turn into larger pictures.

This is the photo that i found that linked me to his seasons Autumn Photo.

Here is my new site!

Web Domain Attempt Part 1

So i tried to purchase a domain on BlueHost.com and totally scammed myself into getting one for 3 years. It cost me about $250 so I am going to cancel it but here is what it looks like.
I am going to pitch into getting a server with every one in the class. It will be about 16 dollars for 2 years.
here is the picture of my Bluehost.com one:

I'm guessing it doesnt show anything until you edit it.

Linking Html Pages

In this assignment we are suppose to link our three variations of our haiku. I decided to include "hr lines" as rules for my haiku. There is a line in the haiku that says "Below hot wires" and that is what I based this haiku on. I decided to keep the consistency of the haiku's by continuously using the lines. I also kept the shaking javascript code that I originally had. I also decided to take the type throughout the whole page to guide the user through the lines. Here are the three linked pages.

Good Sites

http://www.interpolnyc.com/home.html
This a great band site by the band Interpol.
They're site is pretty straight forward and easy to navigate through.

http://www.studiodnasalon.com/
This site belongs to a well known Hair Salon. They're site is also easy to navigate through.

Bad sites

Barberdollz
This is a Salon in Hollywood. They're site is pretty bad and raunchy compared to other Salon sites. You have to continuously scroll down and there isn't a navigation bar to easily access your information.





Teachers Homepage for students
http://cte.jhu.edu/techacademy/web/2000/heal/homepg.htm

This teachers homepage is pretty bad with too many boxes.
