Having 6 to 8 frames on a page only causes puzzlement if not done correctly . Make it simple and try not to drive your web visitors insane.When it comes to website design, sticking with what is simple and straight-forward is generally the best. While you may need to Wow your readership with incredibly flashing, spinning graphics, withstand the urge. It has been shown in studies that people usually find all that flash and glitz to be irritating and distracting. Having 6 to 8 frames on a page only causes confusion if not done properly. Keep it simple and try hard not to drive your web visitors funny. The most well liked layout is the 3-column model, as it works very well. You may find that many good websites have this layout with classes running down the left and updates, advertising and the like running down the right. While this could seem to be a bit uninteresting, readers like it as it is straightforward, straight-forward and easy to navigate. Whitespace is another function of a good layout. Allowing for the reader to have space to rest their eyes is an advantage for most designs. White space is as crucial as the layout itself. Graphics should be used to improve the layout as elements that add to what's written on the page. It should be used as an extension of the text and should lend to further lucidity about the subject. Graphics shouldn't overtake what's being conveyed ; it should only help to make the content clear. Using Fonts There is a standard for fonts that have worked well since prior to the world wide web commenced. In print design, newspapers and magazines, the mix of Serif types for headlines and San-Serif type for text has always worked well. This does not carry over to the web where Sans-serif fonts are the top choice because they are easier to read on the screen. Up till just recently monitor resolution has not been that high, and if you use serif type fonts for text, it might blur together making reading trickier. If you're planning on offering a print-friendly page, you should use print design fonts ( i.e. Serif for reports and Sans-serif for text ). The second thing to remember about using fonts is to restrict the number of fonts you put on one page. Keep it simple - two, perhaps 3 fonts at most. Good web design is straightforward to read. You can use some ornamental type font, but it'll detract from the message you are attempting to convey. Standard font families are best, and even with the new highres monitors, you need to stick with Sans-serif fonts if possible. In web design, the most popular fonts include Geneva, Arial, Verdana and Helvetica. They're easily read, Sans-serif and great for all internet site designs. ![]()
