Concluding on a site that makes good use of images was quite difficult since images itself is a very vague topic, so I did the best I can on choosing a site that I felt made good use of images. I’m going to pick the site http://www.fullsail.com/. After visiting the site you’ll probably notice it’s also very animation intensive and should probably go into the animation review, but the use of images in the animations and also on the static pages were also very well done.

Why I chose this site was because of how they show you visually every point they want to make, along with text to back it up. A very good example would be their “Career Development” page. It visually shows you the stages of where you need to be to get to the top. Along with each stage, you also get a small overview about the stage. With each stage, there’s also faded out image icons that demonstrate the stages. I think this holds the user’s attention while providing them with the information they need.

Another good example is their admissions page. It doesn’t have very much text on it, but the image layout and the images they show are very attractive and presentable. It gives the viewer a nice warm feeling.

Conclusively, this site makes good use of the image element because of their image selection and mainly, image layout. Providing site users with an easy to navigate image layout and easy-on-the-eye images is a big plus.
