Having six to eight frames on a page only causes misunderstanding if not done right. Keep it simple and try to not drive your web visitors insane.When it comes to web design, sticking with what is easy and straight-forward is usually the best. While you may wish to Wow your readership with stunningly flashing, spinning graphics, fight the urge. It has been shown in studies that folk usually find all that flash and bling to be upsetting and distracting. Having six to eight frames on a page only causes bafflement if not done correctly . Keep it simplistic and try to not drive your web visitors silly. The most well liked layout is the 3-column model, because it works really well. You'll find that many good web sites have this layout with classes running down the left and updates, advertising and such like running down the right. While this could appear to be a bit boring, readers like it as it is simple, straight-forward and straightforward 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 important 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 clearness about the subject. Graphics shouldn't overtake what's being conveyed ; it should only help to make the content clear. Using Fonts There's a standard for fonts that have worked well since before the internet commenced. In print design, newspapers and mags, the fusion of Serif types for announcements and San-Serif type for text has always worked well. This does not carry over to the web where Sans-serif fonts are the best choice because they are less difficult to read on the screen. Up until recently monitor resolution hasn't been that high, and if you use serif type fonts for text, it would blur together making reading more troublesome. If you're planning on offering a print-friendly page, you must use print design fonts ( i.e. Serif for announcements and Sans-serif for text ). The second thing to remember about using fonts is to limit the number of fonts you put on one page. Keep it simple - 2, perhaps three fonts at most. Good site design is simple to read. You may use some ornamental type font, but it'll play down the message you are trying to convey. Standard font families are best, and even with the new high resolution monitors, you should stick with Sans-serif fonts if possible. In web design, the hottest fonts include Geneva, Arial, Verdana and Helvetica. They are easy-to-read, Sans-serif and superb for all internet site designs. ![]()
