Homework

For homework we went to www.cssbasics.com and read chapters 1-4.  From reading this I learned some basics about css including syntax, classes, and Id's.  Using a selector, an element can be styled.  A selector in css can be used multiple times and different selectors can be combined so that they are repeated on a page.  A class selector in css uses a period while a Id selector uses a #sign.  An Id selector is more powerful  then a class selector and if both are used, the Id selector will override the class selector.

Final designs


The first design I put together in Indesign, Due to many technical difficulties I ended up having to print through Illustrator. I also realized that my image ended up being too big so I had to cut it down a little bit.  

Integration



I started out by adding two large fish to the design. I then added the first masthead. After I decided to change the masthead I took it away and added little fish in the background of the design.

The following is the scanned photo that I used for my project
The next two photos were taken by me and integrated into the design.


focus

The focus of the magazine is on diving and the target audience is people who enjoy recreational diving. The sell line of the magazine will be about 100 of the best places to dive.

This is the updated version of the masthead. I added some seaweed to the blue box in order to break up the bottom line.  I also changed some of the colors to make them a little less blue green and a little more blue.
