• COLOR SCHEMES & FILE NAMES:
  
  YLNI quadO- This is your ORIGINAL quad. IT WILL NEVER BE COLORED. Once you have created and cleaned up this quad, you will SAVE IT four more times using the file names below!
  YLNI quad 1 YOUR CHOICE of colors (must conform to requirements!)
  YLNI quad 2: Monochromatic color theme
  YLNI quad 3: Complementary color theme
  YLNI quad 4: “THEME” colors or TEAM colors (pick a set of 3 to 4 colors)

• FILE NAMES: Each file should be named properly, with your last name and initials, and the project name: Example: “jonesBJ quad1"

• Basic Requirements:
  1. Each Quad design must be in keeping with the correct color scheme or theme.
  2. Each Quad design should show evidence that the student used many different colors, created original gradients, textures, and patterns. Note: limit the number of patterns you use! The white areas must be colorized, too.
  3. All colors, gradients, patterns and textures MUST be symmetrical, and employ mirror symmetry. (i.e., if one part of your design is red, it must be the same in ALL four sections).
  4. Within each quad, no two colors, patterns, gradients or textures can be placed next to one another.
  5. Alternate for best effect: Dark colors against light, bright colors against dull, patterned colors against flat color, etc.

  6. Use only ONE of the premade gradients. All others you must make!

  7. Avoid using black! Use dark blue, purple, etc. If you use black you may have problems if you should need to remove a color from a space....it tends to take the lines, too!
