Project 1 Notes
For the explanation page, these are some things you should include:
- What your theme is and why.
- What your color scheme is and why, or why you chose the colors you did.
- Why you designed your pages in the form you did - did you use a consistent linking system on all pages, on the index page and on the first project page, or throughout or something else, and why?
- Why you chose the font you did. If you left it as the default font - why?
- What was your motivation in choosing the images you chose to use for this portion of the site?
- On the extra page that could be about anything, what did you use it for or did you simply put "Under Construction" and why?
- Did you write your explanation all on one page, or did you break it up into several pages? Why - are you used to writing essays in one chunk and so it felt more normal to do so, or are you more familiar with reading chunks of text on the web and so you went with separate sections on color design, page layout (where the text/images are and why) and on the writing layout (fonts used, bold used, headers used)?
- Remember to check and see what other people are writing about to get ideas for your own writing.
- Email me if you're really stuck, or ask me in class.
