This is a web site that I visit often for automotive performance parts. The racing collage in the middle of the screen catches my eye whenever I see it. Its a picture of two cars drag racing, so the action shot works very well. The graffiti style font gives the page some attitude, so this collage just bleeds import performance.

i chose this page because it shows unusual images that are quite interesting. i mean by that, that you cannot find those images on many pages.

I like this page because it uses two different collages: One for the background, which is a green and white duotone of women bodies at a low opacity. The other collage, which is a set of pictures in a horizonlat bar contrasts nicely with the background

The reason I like this collage is I had an idea of doing something similar to this for one of my collages. I like the feather and the main subject (buildings) with no background.

I really like the black, white, with red accents on the page. The vertical strip of black and white simple headshots looks great. I was surprised how small yet effective the pictures are.

I've always liked the Wells Fargo site's collages...the photos are placed very close together with a small space in between and then they combine this with text. The photos are always changing but the look is the same...I think it's a nice effect.

This is one of my favorate sites. I love the way they did the whole collage here, centering it into the black, with a burnt edge effect. With the image of Alaska centering the collage, and the four pictures duotoned to match the "canvas", makes for a beautiful effect.

Wow, the home page looks pretty cool with the collage placed in the center of the page. The images have a variety of colors, so that adds interest to the site. The photo of a dome in purple color really stands out. That was what caught my attention in the first place. All the photos in the main page use drop shadow and outer glow while other photos throughout the site have no special effects. This is good, because it's keeping the other pages clean.

This is a really cool site! The photos and art are great and the site is filled with a lot of motion and momentum. The design is interesting and quite eye pleasing and exciting to navigate. The photos are well placed and complement the area in which they were placed. The animation also works well. On the home page, I like it when the mouse goes over the circles and they get bigger, which I believe symbolize bubbles in the cola glass. Good stuff!!!

Invensys:
I liked the arrangement of the photos in the collage. The bright colors in the orange and blue shape work nicely with the bright colors in the collage.

Also of interest: http://www.yamaha.com/index_ns.htm
Yamaha.com uses photos representing product categories as navigation the circular design is nice and some of the images have been duotoned to match the color scheme.

Real good job on pictures on this Web site. The pictures of the animals all face into the web page.
Seven pictures on top in a row used as the navigation bar with rounded corners. Some of the pictures are feathered. Other pictures have rounded corner in different places of the Web Site. Real good choice of pictures of the animals in this Web site.

BAD SITE ON PICTURES
This web site has only one pictures and its a picture of the track. This web site is about racing three different type of CARS each week, plus a special gust Car. There should be more pictures of the winners with their cars.

The photos were beautiful and dynamic. I viewed the photos for monday, it may be different by the time you get view them , but mondays photo was of a chandelier and a red chinese lantern. they then animated them to come up to the foregrounb then fade again into the background. Text was also animated in the image and though it was not completely readable it added to the overall beauty and grace of the imagery. Well Done. Smooth and Dynamic.

I picked this site because I thought their webpage was effective. I liked the way they set the photos (collage) inside the heart (the heart is also a symbol in their logo). I also like the way they're lined against a black background. The images go well together colorwise, are simple, and effective. They don't fight each other for attention. As a whole they grab your attention. The "clients" look happy and interesting. I'd be tempted to join. :) The cropping was well done. Some of the photos have rounded corners and some have straight corners, no pattern though. Compare these photos to the simple collage at http://kiss.com/ . Their collage is very plain and not interesting at all.

The site I chose for the Photo Surf Assignment is the site for the Colorado Technical University. This site uses four photos in a collage as the focal point for the home page. The four photos are placed in a vertical row near the center of the page. The colors in the photos work well with the other colors on the page, and the overall effect is quite pleasing to the eye of the visitor.

This is "The Digital Photo Collage Page" of a person who identifies himself only as 'tommy.' He has made wonderful photo collages in a style I had not seen before. Though static, they are like key parts to an animation: they almost move!

(excerpt from the artists' statement...)
"---------Statement of Work----------
Visual perception and memory are not fluid.
Instead, our perceptions are of static moments linked closely to create the illusion of smooth motion.
We normally observe in quick glances.
The eye moves jerkily. Sight is smoothed by the brain.
...

He also offers the images for anyone's free usage. Very interesting---I say this is very good art.
