Hi Gabrielle,

I was going through your project and I really enjoyed your idea. The theme that you chose for your project is great and I know that the project itself is very special and personal since it’s related to your home city. I’m sure you’ll have a lot of important information displayed on your website. I have few suggestions for your project, although some of them I have already talked with you about it ;). Here they are:

- Add some music: I think it would be great if you could have background music from the second line parade. I know this is just a detail, but I think it would give a touch to your project.
- Brief information New Orleans: Maybe, you could add or link from your project further information about the city like: important events, New Orleans music, etc. Especially, things that are not very common and most people do not know about it.
- Template: I noticed that you have a new template on your website. I like it, but some of the images and backgrounds are competing with text information that you have there. You might want to change them so it doesn’t overwhelm the user when he is reading the information provide by your website.
- Welcoming text – I love the welcoming text. I think it is a great idea, but I would suggest you to change the text font. It isn’t very easy to read. I like the one that you had previously. It was better.

I think that’s all that I have. I like the overall idea of your project and I hope this desk crit helps you. Please, let me know if you need more feedback. You did a great job ;-)

See you tomorrow on the showcase ;)!!
