1) What is your favorite part of your final project? Take a screen shot (see next section) and put in on your wiki page near your answer.



This is a part of my web site's main page. In the page I tried to incorporate strong contrast between the text and the background, therefore only using two colors, black and white. The skull on the left side was made to fade out every four or five seconds using flash; flash gave smoother effect than normal animated GIFs. Also, I have blurred every title of my pages with photoshop, then arranged the images in dreamweaver to remove the blur as the cursor came over it.

2) What risks did you take in the final project?

In fact, deciding to use only two monochromatic colors was a hard decision to be made when everyone else was incorporating color in their projects. However, I am satisfied with what I have produced, where the colors improve simplicity in design and therefore provide user-friendly structure.

3) Which part of the final project was most challenging for you? How did you meet this challenge?

Incorporating fading-out navigation bar was the most challenging part, mostly because I wanted it to act as the title of the page as well. This was solved later by increasing the image size of the selected title.

4) How would you improve your final project?

I have just found out that when I pressed ctrl+alt+apple+8(invert screen), the web page looked way more simple and robust. When I have enough time, I will work to invert the whole website.

5) Web Design 1: If you take Web Design 2, what areas of web design would you explore?

If possible, I want to explore more of incorporating flash with dreamweaver to produce both quality and speed, taking advantage of flash's vector image rendering.
