This was a group project that conducted a survey to test the assumptions that we as designers make on a daily basis. The solution was to create 10 questions with corresponding images, to find out whether a user preferred A or B selections. I contributed to the project by creating a style guide from which the design of the images would follow. In addition, I created several images for the survey choices; a flash progress chart, to give the user feedback during the survey; and animated flash charts for the final presentation. The website earned: Over 50,000 visits , Over 35,000 visits in 5 days, and Over 20,000 results .
