Project 1 and 2 are connected, with Project 1 being the starting line. We'd be creating a landing page of whatever topic that we chose.

For project 1, we don't need to to use Dreamweaver, because we're not designing the web yet. We pretty much just design how the page would look like using Illustrator or Photoshop. It's like the sketch.

I've chosen the topic "Fandom" and my call to action would be "Join the Fandom!"

What fandom? Psshht.

Kamen Rider, obviously.

Fig 1.3 (Layout/color change [slightly])

Right. So. 

Each Rider has their own signature color, so I feel like it's hard to chose one color to use for all of the Riders. I initially used orange because the header thumbnail had an explosion in it, but I dunno. 

So I picked one Rider series and decided to make a page for that.

So after contemplating suicide, I decided to change the whole thing completely. This Kamen Rider website thing is clearly not working and I feel like I'm doing them dirty if I go through with it. It's ugly, fine, I admit. I see that, too, I just didn't want to acknowledge it before because I wasn't sure I could come up with something else.
But here I am, after already starting on the second project, wanting to change this sad excuse of a website, because feedbacks from lecturers just destroyed my hope for this thing to succeed.
Depression aside, I've decided to make a website for my ongoing comic instead. Hm, what a simple idea. Should've thought of this sooner. Oh well.

Fig 2.1 (No Laif layout design)

The comic's genre is slice of life/comedy. And the concept is that nothing special really happens, so I wanted to make it as simple/empty as possible, as if I'm not really trying. The thing is, the characters are all trash so this website should also look trash (effortless).

If there's something you think looks wrong, it's intentional. 

It's my comic, shut up, you don't have a say on how I design a website of MY comic. I'm still salty about the lecturers not telling me my initial design sucks ass earlier.

- So after already starting on Project 2, the second stage of this particular task; which depends heavily on the design from this project, Project 1 - the base of Project 2, I was told that
  > my layout looks unprofessional/boring
  > the color scheme is not nice
  > the font choice is also not nice
  >tbh all I heard was "this shit ugly lol re-do it"
