Blender Underground

Website Layout

This thread is for discussion of Challenge #21


About this Challenge: This Challenge was inspired by a Bryce 3D Tutorial found HERE take a look to get some ideas if you wish. Your entry does not need to be a fully coded website, you can post an image of the layout. Please post both a render and a wireframe of your entry.

Please let me remind all who enter the size limit for entries is 600 pixels wide.
This limit is enforced and if you post an entry that is larger than the limit it will be removed or not entered into the poll.


Deadline for submittal is 11:59 PM MST (-7:00 GMT), Sunday, November 30th.


Further notes:

All entries should use the Blender Internal Renderer for this challenge.

You have two weeks to complete your entry and perfect it.

Got questions? This is the thread to post them in.

Ha, this challenge fits perfectly,
because I have planned to redesign my website a long time ago,
so now it's time for it.

Can we post more than 1 entry?

1 entry per person for the vote. You are certainly welcome to do as many images as you want.. but only one can be entered for the voting. Thanks.

this challenge is great.
but unfortuntely i have no knowledge in web coding.
if an image is enough for this challenge i'll give it a try.
but if coding is required, i think i'll pass.
gudluk 2 u guys!

Just incase you or others missed that part

No need to code anything.. just experiment with Blender to make a website layout. If people are going to have trouble with the wire render... perhaps a screenshot of your design in Blender's 3d window?

If folks want, I offer my service to put your nices entries on the background of a webpage...

....and Il also add the buttons if you add a thanks...

...but I warn you, I want to be paid ahead for this job

So as I understand it, we are really just making a background image for a webpage??

yeah basically. I mean if someone wants to take this project further and slice their render up into a coded and funtional website.. they could.

But for the Challenge, a simple render that shows the layout is just Peachy.. no wait.. Apricot.. maybe Orange?

I don't really get the mission, Apollos maybe you could do us an example that everyone( I mean me) could understand the mission.

Its easy. Make a 3D picture that can be used as a backdrop for a website. Period. Anything more you do will not be considered as part of the entry (such as going ahead and creating a website!) Am I right Darth?

Don't make thing to complicateds folks,


***MISSON***


1) Make a FAKE 3D webpage using blender (use your imagination = be original)

2) Do a render (2D) of the overall

3) Post the rendered pictures here



4) Weldone ! You've succefuly accomplished the mission

5) OMG !, Your work was so nice that you've won the challenge !

6) Arrghh.... you have to make a tutorial of it....

7) NP, it's pretty simple to make a tut on this


Optionnal) Send me the pics and il make a website of it just for ya

Any suggestions for aspect ratio? 600 pixels wide, if we use the now standard ratio of 16:9 then thats only 338 pixels high! Would it be better to make it more like a printed page ratio of 8.5:11 = 600 x776? (sigh my first part looks really cool at 1650x1080 )

what about the good old 800x600? I know, I'm living in the past, but I still produce all my Director projects in this size...

The web standard is still 800x600 its a nice size to work at and its safe. Walsh.. please note that the thumbnail limit is 600 px. wide. This has no bearing on your actual render size since you can link your thumbnail to a larger image.
