Some of the things I like about the flash websites are:
The continuous movement of objects within it
Interactive
lots of buttons
movie clips
different colours
Some of the things I like about the Be Bop Jeans website are:
beginning was very eye catching
the sort of dull colours
the movie clips
use of space- no wasted space
really interactive
all other pages are conected to home page
Some of the things I like about the flowers feed the soul website are:
how the background is blured out but the focal point on each page is clear
there is always something moving (not boring)
there is a lot happening but it relates to each page you are on
These sites look professional because the images look clear. The lines are clean and everything works on the sites. I think the use of colour is good in them and they flow.
These sites inspire me to make my portfolio look really good. I want to make sure I use my time well to do a good job. Also it inspires me to choose my colours carefully and maybe relate them to my media art work.

Thought Process for Portfolio
Personal Symbol Reflection
My personal symbol represents my interest in sports. I play ringette and the skates go with that. The sort of circle shape to my symbol, shows that my life is very busy and always on the go because of my teams. I chose to use the colours red and yellow because to me they are very energetic. Red is associated with energy, strength, and determination. These are all characteristics i see when i play ringette or broomball. Yellow is associated with energy and joy. The two colours together represent the hard work and effort I need to keep running and trying my hardest when I play brooball. In my symbol, it shows that I have fun playing my sports and I am happy to be playing them as well. Overall, my symbol just shows my love for being a part of a team and the energy I get from playing ringette and broomball. Sports are a big part of my life and they are very important to. I think my symbol represents this aspect of my life well.
