Ideas for Hypertext Essay Revision

While looking at the examples of other's webpages in class, the five aspects I admired are as follows:

1. Continuity - In "Made in America: Garment Workers in the Bay Area", the website title and image are at the top of every page. This continuity makes the website flow from page to page.

2. Simplicity - The example titled "Child Scavengers" had a lot of information, a lot of graphics, yet still looked simple. There was a lot to look at but it was almost always the same simple layout.

3. Graphics - "Child Scavengers" had many pictures on every page. I really liked how visual this example was.

4. Navigation - "Child Scavengers" had an attention grabbing first page with a large image that had to be clicked on in order to direct you to the home page. Every page had the same navigation, I really liked the consistency of that.

5. Color Scheme - Although color scheme can fall under continuity and simplicity, I liked the examples that did not have a lot of different colors. My favorites were the ones where every page contained the same few colors.


I hope I can incorporate these five things into revisions for my own website: http://www.itrs.scu.edu/faculty/Bousquet/fall07/Bousq2/kkarlovich_fall07
