GIMP Web Design Project 4

In this UX web design project, the learning continues! Starting off with a large Hero image as the backdrop of the UX design. This image alone will elevate this companies existing brand and will distinguish it as a leader in its area. As great as the image is it could be better. We’ll make it better by learning how to remove 2 cars from the foreground. you’ll learn how to retouch like a pro…. all in GIMP.

The next part of this UX web design involves creating a great (UX) user experience by giving visitors exactly what they are looking for. In this case, a place to rent. You’ll achieve this by designing a filter, in the Hero section, that will allow visitors to narrow down their search.

If visitors are not ready to do business through this site, they’ll be more so after scrolling down to the first section that includes 4 benefit driven services.

Which is entirely up to you.

GIMP Web Design Project 5

Your next UX web design project consists of taking an old, out-dated, government text-based design and creating a more image-based web design.

Why the switch? The “government” is trying to sell its popular tourist destination with a text-based style. However, this “N.Y. State Park” would be better described with photos. After all, an “image is worth a thousand words”.
