Interaction 1 (Website Revisions)

Here are my revisions for my website. For this I took what I had and made the pages work together a little better. I have an idea for this website where the you can access all the pages by swiping to the left and right (to make it desktop friendly and iPad/iPhone friendly.)

Here is the enter page. Just press the photo and it opens up the home page.

Here is the home page. From here you can either press one of the tabs on the navigation bar or swipe to the left

Here is the profile page (Brag Strip)

Here is the Map Submission page

I changed the store to be a little different that the other pages. Instead of car parts it will have Rat Rodders merchandise. 

Here is the tips and tricks page

And this is the competition/event page. The posters are on a sideways scroll bar.

So there ya go! Any feedback is appreciated

Intro to Project 2

For my organization I chose Rat Rodders in the 30s and 40s. Its main focus is to provide local hot rodders with a place to show off their rides with others around the world.



      Hot Rodding started way back in the 20s, when young teens started buying old Model T's and removing parts and experimenting with performance upgrades racing in the street late at night or on the salt flats. These kids would take specifically Model T Roadsters and take off the bumpers, hoods, spare wheels, interior, and leave only the basics so it would make them light as possible.  
      Rodding really started to take off with the introduction of the Ford Flathead V8 in 1932. Producing a lot of horsepower at a low price.  Stops would then start milling bigger pistons and taking performance parts from bigger cars to put in their smaller cars.
      With the uprise of rodding in the early 30s, there were more and more instances of casualties with racing. "Speed Competitions" are what the police called them. In rise of this racers would move into dark empty streets and dry lakes but casualties still lingered. In an effort to keep rodding fun as well as safe, the Southern California Timing Assosiation was created. They created and developed a wide variety of timing systems to keep racing fun, safe, and more organized. It was with their help the first professional drag racing and hot rodding as well as rat rodders were created.
      My goal for the website is not only a place to show off young riders cars but a place for racers to find safe places to race. Places that can be submitted by users or by officials at the Southern California Timing Assisiation. Racers would also be able to comment and rate areas. Also allow pro drivers and mechanics to submit tips and tricks. As well as a place for organizations to submit competitions and contest posters. 

So far these are some of the pages I've made in illustrator. My next challenge is to try to incorporate it in HTML and CSS.

Here is the enter page
Here is the home page 
Here is the map submission page
Here is the profile page of the user thats called the "Brag Strip"
Here is the store
