Strat Of my new assingment

the new assingment is to design the entire advertiseing campaign for a bussiness of our choice.sorry if im spelling badly but i'm just so used to google chrome and its spelling correction which for people like me is a god send.
anyways enough of random rambleings, my idea was to design the advertiseing for a chain of designer clothing stores specialising in mostly streetware and other "alternative" clothing.

The Rule of Thirds

The rule of thirds is a design technique created by breaking the image into nine equal sections with two evenly spaced horizontal and vertical lines. Points of intrest are plcaed along these lines or on the points at which the lines merge. Here are some links to photos and graphics that this technique is easly visable.
