Category Page Design
In part 3 of the web page design guide I’m looking into Category pages, also sometimes called gallery pages or services pages, they are a vital part of your website and are frequently visited by your users. The category pages are the main pages that gel together your website and are used to help the user find the content they require from the website.
About Page Design
In part 2 of the web page design guide in looking into about pages. The about page is not a frequently visited page but has one key role to play, its objective is to build trust and make your potential customer / client feel at ease about hiring your services or buying your product. Let me present this to you as a scenario:
Web Browser Usability Issue
I just wanted to voice my concern that even though Internet Explorer is working on version 8 and Firefox into its terrible 2’s already, the browser designers are still missing a massive usability issue. One of the most common tasks when browsing the internet is adjusting text size and I believe this isn’t given enough emphasis.
Web Browsers 2010
Sometimes I find myself having daydreams and awake from them with mathematical equations or genius web design ideas, well this time I awoke with a half baked idea of what browsers could be like in 2010. I know what your thinking “oh god here he goes again”!
Elastic Layouts Dead?
I have had to question my view on laying out design’s with elastic layouts using the measurement Em’s, Elastic websites that zoom in or out with the text size have always been somewhat of the Holy Grail for me as far as layouts are concerned, and I think a lot of web designers agree with me. But is the extra torment and toil to make your design’s elastic worth the hassle if web browsers including Internet Explorer are supporting the new zoom feature?
