Website Templates

I may chose this template as its bold, eye catching and simplex. As the background is an image I believe it will show my work off the best compared to other templates. It will be easy to find out information about me and my work as the templates give effortless access to tabs that are clearly labeled. It looks modern and could appeal to any age range. The layout is professional and matches the colour of the background as the design is plain but the background is lively and busy. The only thing I dislike about this website is the fact that the image takes up too much room of the page and my work consists of mostly words with a few images.  

I reckon this layout can show off my work well as the background is plain meaning that people will pay more attention to my work other than how nice the layout is. It also gives easy access to other parts of the page, for example, my bio and how to contact me. Though the layout itself is straightforward, I believe that once my work is displayed it will make others want to stay on the page for longer. However, I would appreciate it more if the images took up more of the background so it gives me more room to show off my work. The layout also makes the blog look more personal to me as I can include a picture of myself on a separate page about me.  

I might chose this page as it would display my work well by showing different pieces all on one page which will hopefully grab peoples attention. You can also click on the images to find out more about it which gets people who visit the page more involved with my work, indulging them. They're links to other parts of the page, for example, an 'About me' page where I can let people know more about me and what I do which makes the website more personal to me. It also has the option to have a separate blog which may come in handy if I have work that branches off from my main theme/task.

After looking at the positives of this website, I came to the conclusion that I dislike how the page is mostly white background. Because although it looks modern, I want to show as much work as possible on the page to grab peoples attention. I reckon that if the page is mostly white they will get tired of it easily and not bother to look further into it.
