So far, especially after the last assignment, I have decided that I learned the following:
• In color, there is a fine line between tranquility and boredom
• Less is more: too much information on every page can create a painful experience
• Less is more: A few well-placed images is more attractive than a number of thumbnails and clickable images
• Text is key: Using arrows or any other non-textual buttons as navigation can be confusing
• Remember the order of importance: Put important links and items toward the top
• Interactivity is fun: Any part of a website that allows the user to customize or make comments is a pleasurable experience, and helps the user define content, and also get feedback on what works and what does not
When I create my webpage, I will make sure to NOT to post a thousand glamorous pictures of my husband and me, or any of my friends. I feel that all images should have a purpose for being there, and should be used to enhance/illustrate the content. Now, I know that websites are relatively objective, and therefore that might not be what everyone else likes, but it's a guideline that I'm going to use.
The title page will most definitely be "DIY Wedding: How to make a wedding cheap but sentimental," Unless that's too long.. in which I'll have to change it.
I've decided to organize the pages not by wedding theme, but by wedding category, like, what to do for Attire, guests, ceremony stuff, reception, "To Bridal party or Not to Bridal Party," decorations, traditions, etc.
