First few pages done

OK, since completing the layout last night I have started to move on a little with ideas for the first few pages I will show in my presentation;

Simple layout for the Female Fighter homepage

A website like this will have so much information that I wanted to keep the front age a simple as possible - rather than keeping it with no information on I decided a good feature would be for it to have a 'snapshot' screen that will go through the menu items one by one and all the top / most recent / relvant information will be displayed there;

The 'snapshot screen' on the homepage

This way the homepage stays simple but will still have snippets of information to entice viewrs further into the website

The above is an example of the latest news headline(s) flashing up

An example of what happens when 'Magazine' is selected on the menu

While the snapshot screen is doing its thing on the homepage, you are free to either click on the screen for more information or click on the menu to the right where further links will be offered (if there is not just a single page)

After the 'current issue' link has been selected and you are taken to the relevant page

On the current issue page you are shown a number of different things; you are given links to specific articles within the magazine that would be on the website (such as the interviews and tutorials) and also links to the fighter profile pages (shown by using their name as a link) There would also be options to buy and subscribe to the magazine.

Home Page ideas

I have started playing around with ideas for the homepage and how it will look, using different elements from within the magazine.

This utilises elements from the magazine such as the colours, type faces and the skewed box look, as well as the general background.

Alot of work still needs to be done on this, but it is a short project so I need to be pressing on with the next stages soon.
