Design 1

This design is unique in that users do little to no typing when using the site (depending on how the exchange / request message system is set-up). Thus the all mouse based interface makes navigation and site actions very efficient. Additionally, it's minimalistic design makes it good for the non-tech savvy users, such as the elderly. 


HOME PAGE

Pros
Users do not have to enter their information into a long form, so registration is faster and easier 

Cons 
Users may not be comfortable with connecting their social network profile to the site
Requires users to have a Facebook or Google+ account
Users cannot browse website without logging in

DONATE PAGE 

Pros
Choosing items to donate is very simple -- users perform a batch photo upload of each item they would like to donate
Categorizing items is easy -- users drag and drop items from their donations list into pre-determined categories 

Cons 
The only information associated with any item is a picture and a category. This is severely limiting for search capabilities
and would not allow for common features such as search by name.


RECEIVE PAGE

Pros
Users can easily select items by dragging them from categories into their cart. 

Cons  
Finding items can be a chore. The only filtering of items is predetermined categories. 
Users forced to do a side scroll through items in a category in the hopes that they find what they want.
