Yes, my style and tone changes depending on my audience. If I am writing a text message to a friend, I use a familiar tone and my style isn't put together. I do not put as much thought into a message that I am sending to a friend. If I am writing an email for work, I attempt to sound as professional as possible and have a friendly tone. When I am writing a paper for a class, I try to have a good style to the paper and use a tone that fits with the subject that I am talking about.

Consider your style/voice. Vonnegut’s style is like a “band saw cutting galvanized steel.” Does your style change depending on your audience?

http://www.google.com/

Google's website is one of the ugliest websites I've ever seen because its simply too plain. With not much color except for the multicolored "GOOGLE"in the center of the page and a small line to search, google provides no visuals to attract users. This goes to show how powerful and how useful google really is for people to neglect the lack of visuals and still use the search engine.

Rave provides its viewers with a very attractive website because the navy blue and green color scheme along with action packed pictures of upcoming hot movie allows viewers to build with excitement as they scroll up and down the page. There is a ton of color on the page but not too much where it confuses the viewer. Each different link on the home page is easy to locate allowing for fast and stressless browsing. The font on the page is also very tasteful without being too extreme. Overall Rave is a very well created website.

Is http://thebiguglywebsite.com/ The name says it all! It has many colors and is practically ugly. The usage of color is erratic. The reason it does not work visually is bc there is so much different colors you can not tell the difference between the the important info and the useless information. Everything is labeled "ugly" there is a picture of a cow and a picture of a dancing Santa clause it is basically pointless these two objects do not relate. Who would go to this site even if they were bored? There's other stuff to do. Also not many people have heard of this site. It is not very well advertised.A pretty website is http://www.davidsbridal.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/TopCategoriesDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10052&catalogId=10051. It's title says it all it is a very well put together thought out website. With plenty of different categories advertising their dress line. Also in the center of their homepage is a beautiful women with a long elegant dress and a innocent smirk. It is a very happy atmosphere just like a wedding is suppose to be. A happy site for a special time in ones life.

Post a really ugly website, then a really attractive website. Tell me why they do and don't work visually and rhetorically.

A really pretty website to me would be www.addictinggames.com because there are alot of pictures to look at of all the different games and all the games are sorted under types of genres. An ugly website to me would be facebook.com because when you go to the log on page it is all white there is not enough picture. there is to much white, negative space on the page. its not the page that attracts its users but its the purpose of the website that gets them unlike addictinggames.com which atttracts users both ways.

UGLY WEBSITE:

http://www.amazon.com/

Amazon, may be a genius idea for buying and selling products, but in my opinion, it's hideious! First of all it's blue and orange. Need I say more? Anyone in their right mind don't like gator colors. Second of all it's plain, not symmetric and the pictures are all different sizes. The adds are clashing and it's just all around not attractive.

PRETTY WEBSITE:

http://www.taylorswift.com/

I came along this website as I was writing my second paper and I fell in love with it. It's attractive to me because it's colorful, eye catching, it plays music, and it's in tune with what's in style now. The colors work together, complimenting and highlighting the titles of the different links. And the music is a great idea! It keeps an upbeat energy going.
