I took some pictures of real lockers and notebooks and things to make a better mockup, but it just ended up looking like a really messy, stupid collage.
meanwhile, during our presentation today at SMC (more on that later) we used the mockups we already had, and it seemed to get the point across to the attendees. Dave's flipbook even got specially mentioned as good (must've been that bit about the pretty kitty).
i've been messing around with gradients and such in Photoshop to give the mockups more dynamics while retaining a simple look that would load quickly on the web. unfortunately I can't get the upload box to load, mainly because my internet is running at dialup speeds (as usual, thanks a lot St. Mike's IT).
however, one of the people at our presentation was looking for some kind of website. so my point is--should we not worry so much about our mockups as they are and worry more about creating something that works more like a webpage? don't think any of us can code enough in Flash to make a website, but I think I could make a graphics intensive HTML page using the existing mockups that would at least stand in as a working model.
any thoughts on what we should do here? if people think I should forge on in refining the mockups, I will. I just don't know where I should spend my energies so that the presentation has the best net gain in the end.

Kate and I talked to Jon tonight and he has all the info to send to Dianne's son, so I don't think we need to worry anymore about redoing mockups, because it's our understanding as long as he has the info / explanations, he can do that for us.
I'll post the feedback from today's presentation in the morning. My brain's just not functioning right now. It went really well and we got some excellent feedback pointers to work on in the next two weeks.
