The interface that user will interact in any web page is one of the important factors that has to be seriously considered by a web designer. There are many ways to create this interface, and one of these ways, which has increases in popularity is using Cascading Style Sheets, CSS.
A CSS file separates the contents of a page from its layout, giving the designer the opportunity to optimise the design for scalability and reusability.
Separate CSS files can be created to present a web page for different layouts separately suitable for printing, or viewing via a mobile device as well as the normal viewing via a web browser.
CSS files also can tackle browser compatibility issues by adding the extra code that handles viewing in different browsers such as IE, Firefox or Opera.
Designers can change the layout of the whole website in seconds by changing one parameter in the CSS file, such as body background picture, or the format of the fonts.
To see an example of a site I have developed purely by using CSS, have a look at Integral Net Systems.
I will write more about CSS soon. If you are interested subscribe to my feed to be the among the first people who get updated with more Web and Graphic Design Articles, News, Tips and Tricks.
When it comes to editing your images, the limit is the sky. You may consider doing some corrections to
- Re-position the objects within your image
- Crop the extra surrounding
- Change the colours
- Change the brightness or luminosity of colours
- Change the resolution or size
- Modify the content by adding extra objects
- Modify the contents by removing extra objects
- Enhance the objects by making them look better
- De-grade some objects by making them look bad
- Mix some images together to create artwork
- Modify images by applying artistic and creative ideas
I will add examples of each of these to my site soon. Please come back visit later to see more examples, or look now to see what is already there.
The above image is taken inside a sunglasses shop in a dark rainy day while trying a model I could not afford to buy! I then mixed it with a background image of a park taken in Paris in a sunny day. The result is somehow convincing!
One of many implementation of Graphic Design is Photo Editing. We all know that
- Photos are one of many effective ways of communication.
- They are easy to grasp.
- They give us a way of talking without speaking
- They remind us of our friends.
- They bring us back good memories.
- They make us nearer to our loved ones. Design Maze offers photo editing for individuals and businesses.
If you would like to re-touch, or transfer your photos to art work, contact me to discuss your requirements.
