I've recently re-installed Macromedia Suite 8 in conjunction with the notion to start up this website, and lately I've been trying to re-light the thirst for design I had in high school, which is where I first acquired this wonderful software suite. In an attempt to resurface the few things about Fireworks 8 that I learned in my graphics design class, I decided to design a completely custom PC case. The accompanying photo is the current stage of said design.
The PC itself was a design implemented for Jenna, with her input as to the color, tones, and building materials. The green and black swirled square on the top of the case, and the swirled star on the side panel are representative of the clear window and green LEDs that will be installed should this case see fruition, and the green panels on the front of the case represent the expansion bays and front-panel audio/USB jacks, whereas the star is yet another panel window for the front-side fan, and the is Jenna's signature symbol for all of her art work.
The current layout is a final draft; however, the image itself is still in the semi early stages. Once I've had a bit more experience with the web-design half of MacSuite8 I'll be uploading a time line of the image growth from my original idea to the current and final designs of Jenna's (hopefully to be realized) dream PC case.
After this project is finalized, look for another similar line of images and updates correlating to my own custom PC, or to one for whoever asks first.
For now, I'm off. Enjoy the site.
