Colors are everything to a website, they make the website fit into what they need. The Specifications of a website can have a variety of colors to keep it clean or sloppy.

What did you learn about file types as you created and designed your travel website? What are soe other kinds of fie types you know of? What do these different files do? Explain.

Only some certain files can be edited and some can be pictured. Files that i have used go along with programming and coding with Java, HTTP, and jpeg, MPEG. Even though i do not know what half of them do, the ones i do know involve creating cites through locations and graphs, and doing that kind of coding is extremely annoying, because you have to get exact locations.

Files. .doc, .docx, .jpeg, .png, .psd, .gif, .ppt, .pptx, .exe, .html, .pdf

What was your takeaway from this Travel Site? What did you learn that you didn't know before? How will the knowledge of how we built this site help you improve your future websites?


My favorite takeaway would have to be how we got the site to switch image pages w/o actually going to another page in the site. Using this knowledge in the future will be very beneficial to me, because ill be able to fit more things onto one site, instead of having to use a whole other page to fit that information on the site. Having to go into a site to way to much time in figuring out how to maneuver it, keeping it  really, really obsolete.

What do you know about Photoshop? Have you used it before? What can it do? Are you an expert? A newbie? Tell me about your background and what you already know.

I've used Photoshop for a personal use of creating pictures for a game, but that is about it. I was really confusing at first but you get the hang of it. I personally still call my self average to knowing about how Photoshop works but i do know the basics about how it works. There are a few tricks to getting to use Photoshop and having it all layout correctly, but it is rather simple after you know some of the basics.

Think about how a user (me or anyone else using your site) might function and interact with your site. What are some important functional features to make your website easy to work with? How can you make it easier for the user and not frustrating? Explain why this is so important.

Have everything that they need right out in the open, because going to search for something out on a website can get really annoying. Keeping everything together lets the website be more organized and has the benefit of letting the user navigate the bars better. Keeping the user entertained about the website will want them to stay longer and also want them to keep coming back to the website to see if it was updated with newer content.
