Hi guys i’m familiar with web design but new to photoshop 7. I’ve used it a bit here and at this time there to doctor way up pictures but now i’m no expert. I’m looking to make a internet site for my fraternity which is very professional looking but also very graphically rigorous since there truly isn’t all a whole lot of content. I’m looking to use brotherhood photos as well as crest somewhere within the design. Our colorations are blue, silver, white, black, yellow metal and maroon. A picture with the crest can be found at www. tech-area. com/h/techarea/crest. bmp. I’ve looked around to view what other fraternities do for websites, but really, most of them have become beginner looking, bland, and basically simply suck. I needs all help i will get here having suggestions and tips because i you should not really know where to begin with. Usually i’d evaluate someone elses site and apply it as a reference, but like when i said, most of the fraternity sites my partner and i found are just simply bland and very beginner looking. Since a fraternity is a buisness, it ought to be professional, graphically demanding, and also have room for any little information the following and there. No flash or anything from the sort is wanted/needed. The name from the fraternity is Chi Phi Alpha. The links is going to be " Brothers", " Calender", " Fellow member Access", " Dash Information", and " Contact"…. Any help will be appreciated, Thanks people!
firstly, whats the fraternity!
why is the crest a 3d replica of the 1600s blacksmiths crest
For a college fraternity… you really don’t know what that is It’s supposed to be a replica because it symbolizes strength as well as other things.
Why not have the crest as the header (please transform it,. bmp will be yuk) then possess 3 columns, the left and right columns may have more images/text and the central column can offer more info if you value.
I was specialist doing something like this but the crest is usually rather large along with doesn’t really fit into the page anywhere because of its shape. Plus its juts form of crappy looking generally speaking as its certainly not well defined and id that it to have a bit more of some sort of " plastic" look to that and 3D it a bit but i have no idea of how…. suggestions
ahh suitable, its an u . s citizens thing!
Photoshop out the white background, and allow it a dropshadow. You can even resize it throughout PS, so it is banner peak, and then bring your frat brand beside it or perhaps under it for your banner.
Cool i played around about it and this is what i have up to now: http: //www. tech-area. com/h/techarea/ChiPhi/… i do believe it looks fabulous as an get into page, now we need something for the main page you head to when you click the crest picture. Im not sure where to start for the principal layout
haha! the splash(intro) page appearance good, but how come the main layout page has a picture of fat people clenching the fists!! hahaha! a person crazy americans…
oh and just outside curiosity, what can ‘chi phi alpha’ signify
haha we were just playing all over with making some images for that main page. I simply took some pictures with the guys with his or her chi phi alpha tops on and tried to edit available the background and ensure it is look decent. I dont know where to start with the images yet, but they’ll probably find yourself somewhere in this page… chi phi alpha are 3 greek albhabets (chi, phi, and alpha) chosen in a particular order with which has meaning to the members in the club.
i’m still lost about what to make the principle page look for instance though. It ought to be graphically intensive and also professional looking as there really isn’t a tremendous amount of actual subject matter.
