This website i think is ugly. It's white and boring. There just paragraphs after paragraphs of reviews of rhetoric. They rate other peoples pieces on rhetoric. Ironically i think if you're going to rate other peoples websites or work than your own work should be excellent. I think the website uses dull colors along with weird pictures that are random. Rhetorically they didn't make since at all because they are critiquing other peoples work yet there's sucks. So, they kinda of just made there own example of rhetoric.

This website i thought did a great job with rhetoric. It was busy and had a lot of pictures. The bold colors were eye catching and attention getting. The placement of the pictures and how the website is set up i think is fantastic. There is just about every type of rhetoric on that website. Also there not only is a lot of visual examples of rhetoric but there is also a lot of speeches and video's you can view. Overall i thought this website was creative and educational at the same time. They did a great job of presenting a lot of information through many examples and still kept a lot of visual examples to go with it which can help with keeping your audiences attention as well as getting your message across.
