Week Twelve -02/11/10

I was unable to make it into college this lesson as I am ill. However, I have been working from home to research  affective colour schemes, and the first website I can across was http://colorschemedesigner.com/
The website itself has very similar colours to my website, which is a positive sign that I am on the right track.
I have made my website in accordance with Joel Sklar Theory; the logo and name of the website are on the top left hand side. I have designed my website whilst keeping in mind that peoples eyes will scan the top left hand side and then the right hand side.

The feedback I was given on the preliminary task will help me to ensure that this website appeals to the masses. One of my strong points on the preliminary task was that I kept my website consistent, through the colour scheme as well as the layout. Another praise was that I had a suitable amount of information on each page.

I was given mixed feedback on my use of colour blocks, one person said "The coloured blocks on your page are very good as they highlight the important information" however, another person said "Unfortunately I don't really like the block colours behind the writing" but seeing as they did not give a reason why I am not sure whether or not to take this into account.
For the main task website I will ensure that it is appealing to my target audience by asking for feedback from my classmate throughout the making of it.
