IDCC 370: Web Design I Fall 2012

Check this out:

In thinking of the graphic signature (look and feel) of your site as communicated effectively through the banner, buttons, and color palette, you may need to do a little more exploration for graphics.

In class you will be able to explore a number of sites to work on your banner as we begin the next exercise:

• The Microsoft online photo collection, 
• brownielocks  and 
• Buchholz Public Photos on Picasa Web.

Note: When you start to download free material, remember to save the graphics in your masters subfolder of the images folder. Be sure to name any file you download with the site name prior to the graphic filename; for example, brownielocks-dribblessplats.jpg. Then, as you acquire graphics from brownielocks and other vendors, the files will be together in the masters subfolder. Remember, you need to credit all your graphics sources and provide links to the graphic (or at least to the site if you cannot link to the graphic). It is very important that you keep all of these files straight, so take care.
