Good design is (not) hard to find

Thanyarat Doksone


Good design is not at all hard to find in the realm of World Wide Web. However, for beginners whose first encounter with Dreamweaver just occurred at the beginning of this semester, to build a web page with good design, let alone a website, is definitely not an easy task to accomplish.

Nonetheless, the reading does give a great portion of Do's and Don'ts for web design, most of which we think we already know but end up doing what we should not.

One of the significant features of a web site that novice creators like us might fail to consider is consistency or repetition from page to page. When presenting stories from different media in the site, we have to make sure the web pages share similar elements.

With other items listed in the guideline, I hope at least to put up a web site that is neither stylish nor creative, but rather a simple site that does not contain any undesirable features. Hopefully.
