Not so good websites.


In first look this website looks pretty good, but when I start looking for something specific, some content related to it - it is not so easy to find because the page has panoramic view when you have to move your cursor to side and wait till it slowly moves screen to the next options. But otherwise it is pretty good.










This website is quiet bad because it takes an ages to get into it. I was waiting for a while but still didn't seen what's on it. Then when I was trying to get to previous page it didn't let me do it...
But the first looks is pretty good too...










This website is pretty good too but when I enter it opens new window for every page.
It is not easy to find really poor flash website, because it takes a while to make it...

environment


Here we can see how I am adding textures to buildings.
For background I have been using sunset wallpaper. And for buildings - brick wall, dry mud photograph and cracked paint texture...

world greatest architecture:::


We have been asked to do a research about world greatest architecture, so there is few...




Statue of Liberty (built 1886) in New York
(1st pic. edited by PS)












Tower of Pisa in Italy (built 1173-1350)

















Eiffel Tower in Italy (built 1887 – 1889)














Colosseum in Italy (built 1st century AD)













Big Ben in London (first clicks in 1859)

Nice flash websites


I have picked up few nicely designed flash websites.
I like these because they are quiet simple to use and navigate.
Also the motion for buttons and flash icons are designed very accurate - shadows etc.
*But if I getting more into it I can find some defects in this website, which I would do different way. For example if I chose option "support" it opens another two options which is quiet hard to see them appearing because they are just the same colour as the other Main menu options.
But it is all nicely designed I guess it is all made in Adobe Flash. Button are definitely made in AdobeFlash as a short animations. You can see it when you move over the cursor. As this website is relevant to music and Ipod speakers buttons are designed as little equalizers which looks pretty good. I guess it took a good while to make it work this way.















This web site looks very smart and clean. I like this style. Only red circles been used and animated in Adobe Flash.














Also this site is very simple. I like these shadows.
But when you enter it you can see that there is lot of work done. All the buttons works different. All characters moving or running around when you drag the cursor over it. I'm surprised how web designers can put all these little animations together.
I guess it has been done also in Adobe Flash.
























I posted this red colored website because this is the one I don't like. In my opinion is too bright. If I watch this website on high resolution and full screen my eyes go sore.
But it's still listed as a one of the best flash sites.

editing pictures by PS





Big Ben in London on fire .































Unwanted items can be removed by PS
As you can see in picture - Ice hockey team logo has been removed.






Skull edited with random textures. Just training..

2 point perspective buidings




















































I think that for my character environment could be like this - old fashioned buildings.

It could be something like factories, destroyed, damaged buildings ...








In this picture we can see old paint which is cracking off from the wall...













This texture might be used for the building walls...














Another brick wall...












Dry cracked mud could be edited by PS and used for building walls to make them look old...






Environment might look like this...
