The Animation of the Kung Fu Panda website is very well developed and stylized to fit the theme of the website. The Animationis very clean as it goes through each part of the site, and as the characters interact with one another. The animation aslo is not just focused on the characters, but on every page and every link as well. The site is scrolled horizontall, and the animation throught movement of the page is very clean and sleek. The Kung Fu panda website has some of the cleanest animations that cartoon sites have.
The consistency of the site is really up for opinion. Though many of the pages of the site have the same layout, each one of the charactes pages has a differnet style designed to fit their characteristic. The layout of each character is the same as the others, one huge image/background, then all the infromation about the character on the left in rounded ended rectangles. Though the main pages do keep the same layout of the home page. Over all the site does have many consistent designs to it, it just depends on what part of the site viewers are looking at.

The layout of the Kungfu Panda website is very different then many other websites layouts. The site layout is very minimal, in that it is only one huge image/background, with small navigation.
Though the layout is big image, the image is interactive and comes with different highlight areas and hot spots. Thou the site does come with different consistencies, the layout of the site and the pages are relativily the same.
