hey guys..
good going guys sos been away n not postin on d blog...
its looking good im well excited about c'in how this website turns out now. i think are theme has really come on!! Jasmin me n mike finished of ur maps and skip, so no worries on that hun! all we have to do now is meet check stuff is working and build our boards im pretty sure wat we need to do for them tho n ill write it down l8r today n get a general layout to how i think they shud look n ill get u thoughts next time we meet i think they are pretty much...
board a) slimed down version of our mind map (on the massive piece of paper)
board b) board showing what is in the website.. wat u find out etc
board c) site map
i reckon if we use our illustration theme over the boards we would have a really good link to our website and will help explain it when we have to speak in front of the class

CHRIS

the other objects from the skip..

JASMIN

These are the original objects from the skip...

JASMIN

This is the skip that we decided to use, I have put all the objects we will be looking at into the skip instead of the previous skip I posted where many items were present..

JASMIN

These are something like what the maps would like once the background has been added in, some more developments can then be made to them...

JASMIN

These are the maps I produced to use on the website, there is a map for plastics, metals, textiles, paper, and glass, showing where the recycling points for each one are situated in Nottingham. I have just used the road names for the map and put in illustrations similar to the ones we have used for the other web pages....hpe u like them

JASMIN

these two are the other skip ideas i produced...

JASMIN

This is one of the skips i produced.

guys founf out how to link pages in dreamweaver, its pretty easy once u work it out, all i need now is all the pages and we should b done. you have to create the slices in image ready first then u add the file link to the slice from that particular page to the next one anyways if u give me all the pages then its pretty easy for me to create the rollovers and the links to each other. jas have u done the map and the skip page?

yay finally managed the rollover!!! i knew i hated all this computer shit for a reason tried to upload it but it doesnt want to do it!!!

MIKE

oh my god been workin on the fuckin rollovers for the past 6 hrs, still cant get it to work right i hate computers!!!!!!!!!

liking the page layouts guys, the illustrations used reely fits in with the skip that I produced, ill post it on the blog later, as i need to scan it in yet, iv also produced all the maps for where glass, paper, metal, plastic and textiles can be recycled using an illustartive style. I will also post these on the blog later! we need to put them up on the website too in the same format as the other pages that have been produced, so, if you show me how you used illustrator to create those pages, i can also make a start on getting the map pages sorted, or i can give them to you so you can use them the same way as the photo montages.....

JASMIN

yeah i like it man! ill do drips 4 u when we are in mac rooms 2moz!!

not had chance to do the map but shud be easy now we no where we are goin! yipie!

hopefully chaz has got sum bits n bobs 4 us!!

CHRIS

better illustrations me thinks what u reckon?


MIKE

damn dunno whats up with that green but if u click on it u get the green its sposed to be

MIKE

think maybe needs a bit more illustration, the one where ive cut into it was only becasue it had a sharp edge to it?

think the illustration at the bottom left needs a bit more too it o its a bit low see what u think dude?

MIKE

me likey maybe needs a bit more illustration, ill do some for the other one and see what we both come up with, defo set on the style, reckon we should do the drips on all?

MIKE

wat u recon to these m8??

CHRIS

love that m8!! alot! prefer the one without the other shade of green
CHRIS

By the way here are the codes for your green mate in case u wanna open it in diff applications and get the same clr

on the picker th number at the bottom will b: 2F8927

or PANTONE SOLID COATED 363 C

any good?

MIKE

mate if u hand draw the logo or finalise it can u post just tho logo on the blog then ill make it move, did u do all that in illustrator?

MIKE

like it a lot mate, athough reckon maybe the recycling logo should be hand drawn too? or at least have some hand drawn bits on it. i really like it tho mate , got good reviews from housemates too

MIKE

Problem solved?? click on the green and it will apear!

feel i have had a right break through here!! haha

wat do u think?

i reckon to much on the pixcle 1 mate!!

CHRIS

too much? MIKE

anyone any idea how to pixelate summat in p/shop? MIKE

mike here is the pixleated image it needs abit of work doin in photoshop!! but if u cud get it spinnin wud b wkd!!

CHRIS

These are some more photo montages I have worked on

JASMIN

the photo montages i have been working on are shown!!

JASMIN

was thinkin for the skip doing it in the same kinda illustration style but with the different things incorporated, again hand drawn, then when u scroll over them the outline changes to a full clr pic, same shape etc then u click on it and go tp the next page?

any ideas on how to do the map?

MIKE

sweet well ive done two more, these are the pages ill do them for

cans
bottles green, clear and brown (separate one for each/or just one page for bottles)?
clothes and shoes
paper and card
newspapers - although reckon they fall under paper and card?

oh yeh and by the way that site that shows u where diff recycling points are is entirely correct i looked for two the other day that werent there at all
