HB Media, who i'm doing branding work for, assigned me this site since since I was really excited about getting the chance to do something for the Boy Scouts.

Right away, when the site came down the pike, I had the basic design already in my head - with the neckerchef, the wooden background, and the photo-realistic qualities. So I started taking some photos and working with the material available to me, and this is what came out.

I'm pretty happy with it, and the client seemed to be ecstatic, though they've been pretty slow on getting me the final section names and any true content. Oh well, isn't that typically the case?

Looks good for this kind of sites.
But I don't like this patriotism stuff ;)

Well, it's a Boy Scout site. They're all about Patriotism and Christianity :P

hah... i was kind of thinking the same thing for some reason... i think it's the color scheme.

anyway, i like it. i don't really know what other boy scout websites look like, so i don't really have anything to compare it to, but i'm sure it blows most of em away. nice work!

Did you make this red tie from scratch, or is it a photo ?

boyscouts only use two fingers in their salutes right??? i really should know since i used to be one and my parents were my pac leader...d'oh

i think girlscouts use three fingers.

otherwise, it looks great to me!

Go tell Normal Rockwell that! It's his painting :p

And I don't think it is. It's three fingers (to look like hte Fleur De Lis) and it's the right hand, isn't it?

And the neckerchef, the wooden background, and the badges are all photos i took.
