Identities Progress

I know it's been a while since my last post, sorry about that. I've been working so hard I've not really had the chance to write (rubbish excuse I know). My project is coming along really well, I've finished my brochure and web banner, pretty good even if I do say so myself. The website was a different matter. I've had to teach myself the whole of Dreamweaver, but finally I've managed to grasp the basics and a bit more. I didn't realise how much there was to learn so it has taken me a lot longer than expected, so i'm a bit off schedule, but thanks to my brain and my books I've nearly finished my website. It's not too exciting but I find it's really annoying when you see a website with too much animation covering nearly the whole page. Its simple to navigate your way around, but I need to get some more pics for it so I'm on a mission tomorrow to get out and about with my camera. I'll be back soon to tell you how its coming along.

Identities Progress

I know I should be writing more often, sorry about that. I've finished my web banner, finally after making loads of different versions and experimenting with different techniques in Flash. Ah well, at least I've decided on my final banner now. Theres only basic information in it as there is no one out there who wants to sit and read piles of information on a web banner when it pops up on a page they're already looking at. But although it's simple I think it's quite effective. I think keeping my web banner, brochure and website simple looking, makes people look more carefully at the content as they're not bombarded with animation and pictures gallore.
