Readings-
Creating Web Designs-
Chapter 13: This chapter is about making money with your site. I like this idea but your site has to be useful and appeal to many people in order to make a profit. However, it is important for the user to be able to safely and securely make purchases online. Also, it is important to know that advertisement is another way for you to make money. Companies will pay you for advertisement space if you have a popular and successful website that receives many visitors. One girl is a multi millionaire for creating My Space web layouts. Companies have paid her to advertise on her website.
Chapter 14: JavaScript and DHTML is a chapter that is very difficult for me to understand. After reading this chapter, I do realize that JavaScript enhances HTML.
The Principles of Web Design-
Chapter 5: This chapter deals with Imagery. The use of imagery is important when creating a successful web page. This chapter discusses how to appopriately use your images and the importance of cropping, adjustments and how to add borders and using multiple effects. This topic to me will be more useful for advanced web developers.
