My Website - Assignment #2

For my website I decided to make up a pretend Urban music festival – “ Urban Beatz”. I was inspired to make a website about this having gone to Supafest in April (an urban music festival), and hoping to go to Winterbeatz in August.
I picked the freestyle template in Iweb for my site because I liked the rough texture and street feel about it. I tried to personalise this template by moving down the links bar, changing the layout positioning of the text and photos, changing the font and the text colour. I wanted to try and make my website look genuine so I found a logo on the internet and added colour (sticking to my red theme colour) and altered the text to suit my site.
I left ticket info out of the site because the Supafest site didn’t display much ticket info, instead referring you to ticketek. I also followed the Supafest site in the way that they did not announce all artists at once instead left you waiting for weeks for the next announcement. I’ve also made my site to suit this in the way that the photos at the moment are only of the five artists that have been announced but the idea is that as more are announced the photos can be changed until eventually there is only one photo of each artist.
I’ve already picked up a good response to my site having showed some friends without saying I’d made it and receiving disappointed comments when I tell them it’s not real. My only concern is that I haven’t altered the template enough. I would’ve maybe liked to have change the background so it was a bit more different to the template but overall I’m fairly happy with my site.
