Wildlife Website Annotations (College Work)


This project which were given by a real client, I was very disappointed with. Not only I couldn't complete it but I believe I was not taught enough to complete the website all together.
I started off with a template I scribbled up onto Photoshop, as the Client explained they wanted certain things on the front page, and other pages. Although, I unfortunately had time to do just one of these, which was the Index Page.

This template was the one I adored the most, because I liked the simpleness of the layout and the way you were able to navigate. The layout consists of an Introduction, a title and subscriptions on one half of the layout and the other contains small little tidbits of information in which you can read. I wanted the important stuff to hover at the top, so people take more notice there.




I decided to start with the DIV tags in Dreamweaver, so that I can see the layout for my self, and develop it from there. Unfortunately, because I never completed the task, I did, however, put bits of information in to tag it and see what is what on the layout.
I had to change parts of the layout, though, such as the advertisement area, as the size of the adverts were much bigger then what I gave them. I believe I did well with the layout and would have looked like a good website if I had finished it.

Homely House Annotations (College Work)

This was the first website we made for the Website Design brief. We were told to do a website for a bed and breakfast company called Homely House, using their images and website to create it. So I wanted to keep the website simple and easy accessible whilst it looking clear and understandable.

I made sure to keep the colours, the text and the backgrounds the same sort of colour, as this will create a less vibrant but more officiant website. If it was inaccessible, there would be complaints and misunderstandings on the website, which would possibly put the website and maybe the business out of business.

This is the About Us page.

I found it quite hard to work with the materials given, although, I tried my best to get everything looking great and organised as best as I can to a slight high standard.
I managed to link each and every page properly, with no mistakes or errors, so that each page runs smoothly between each other. Also, I made sure each page was identical, but distinguishable to which page is which. Keeping a consistent style throughout the website.

Each page in slight detail.
