Design for web: Crit feedback

Before the crit Loraine asked us to write down five questions we wished to be answered about our work, here are the following:

1. Is the layout of each design suitable for the content, does it work well?
2. Which of the three scamps suits the theme bagology, does the astrology theme work on scamp two or does it seem irrelevant?
3. Would you suggest photographs or vector handbags?
4. Have i explained the navigation correctly, do you understand how the website would work?
5. What additional elements would you add to the website if this was your theme of design?

Crit Feedback:

I was happy after receiving some positive as well as constructive feedback, my crit group thought the bagology theme would work well as they liked the unique design that wasn't stuck to a grid, however i realised that going down that theme root wasn't really exploring the rest of the research i had discovered about the history of handbags and i wanted to use existing imagery on my website instead of having to make everything from scratch. I think this design approach will be a less time consuming way, even though i do want to design a quirky and rememberable website, i think sticking to something simple and easy to navigate is the best option for my first website design. 

However, once i feel i am confident using dreamweaver i might consider developing my website into something more imaginative and challenging.
