Their will also be a search bar at the top right of the page. In the footer thier will be information important to the site. This will include copywright, contact, planning, and a style guide. Also, the picture or logo in the upper left hand corner will direct people to the home page.

Graphics

All graphics will be available through links to another page. This will either have a discription in the link, have a thumbnail, or both. This will happen so viewers will not have to wait for pages to load and to take up less space.

Content

The content of the page will have a padding of .5cm on both the left and the right. I also have the content taking up 80% of the screen with 10% margins on both sides.

Best Practices

The following practices will be implemented:

  • Use default browser settings.

  • Give short descriptions for links
