Designing a Good Website

Recently when i was surfing the net, i came across a very good site : www.articlecity.info

This site has really good articles and also they are sorted well....

here is some info on one of the article which i found useful over there :-

    Design a good website navigation to archive better results


LINK :- http://www.articlecity.info/Design-a-good-website-navigation-to-archive-better-results/

I would suggest every web designer to see this articles. It explains every point on how to get good results and have a good 2 way communication from the user.

Before this article i never realized that navigation can be so important !
The author has really very well arranged and summarizes that these are the most important points for every web designer :-

- Create simple, visible, consistent navigation.

- Orient visitors with “You Are Here” markers.

- Minimize visitor effort.

- Provide multiple ways to access information.

- Provide for visitors with varied skill levels.

- Provide feedback.

- Make sure the navigation is flexible and expandable.

If you see the second last point "Provide feedback" and the point that "Provide multiple ways to access information" are really very important.

Feedback is must for every website. This gives the LIFE to the website. The visitor may feel good that the webmaster is listening to him and not like the website is mass communicated without know what the visitors feel.

If you look around all the big website like google, yahoo all have a feedback option.

Now feedback option for facebook is quite understood, but if sites like google also have feedback option, then this proves how important it is for YOUR site!

Providing multiple way to access information is another very important point.

There are time when the user may get broken, like maybe he has an older version of FLASH and if your site is fully flash and no alternate is given, then the user is going to have a hard time!

Every site should have a backup path to access information. And all flash sites MUST have a text only option as with windows you don't get flash install and there can be a considerable no of users without flash installed.

All the points are very well explained in the article, i suggest all my visitors to see the above website.

Good Article on Picture Formats

Recently after finding alot on internet about graphics and learning about them, i landed up in a website which has really good information.
Check this out:
http://www.web-articles.info/e/a/title/Popular-Graphics-Formats-GIF-JPEG-JPG-PNG-/

This article clearly explains all about picture formats.
I guess most of us are finding information on :-
" Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) " and i think this site successfully explains it really well!
The GIF graphics format is usually used to save icons, cartoons, logos etc....
The best thing about this gif format is that you can have animated pictures with this.
Gif is the second most popular format on net ( after jpeg, which is basically famous because of its reduced size as compared to traditional png )

Also the article clearly states many other picture formats and these uses.
This can be really very helpful to ALL web designers.
There are many free online sites which can help you out with gif animations ( if you want them on your website or something like that...)
the most popular is maybe http://www.gifanimations.com
(others are mentioned in the article)

There are many other formats available which are jpeg,png.
Png are popularly used when the image is quite small(many icon type...though you can also use gif for the same purpose)

hence to sum it up, go to the article, its really good and i found that website also quite usefull with lot of other articles as well.

Why never mess wid KIDS

*A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.
The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human
because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.
The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.
Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it
was physically impossible.
The little girl said, 'When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah'.
The teacher asked, 'What if Jonah went to hell?'
The little girl replied, 'Then you ask him'. *

*A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they
were drawing. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's work.
As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the
drawing was.
The girl replied, 'I'm drawing God.'** **
The teacher paused and said, 'But no one knows what God looks like..'
Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing, the girl replied,
'They will in a minute.' *

*One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at
the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands
of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head. **
She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, 'Why are some of your
hairs white, Mom?'
Her mother replied, 'Well, every time that you do something wrong and make
me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white.'
The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said,
'Momma, how come ALL of grandma's hairs are white?' *

*The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to
persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture.
'Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and
say, 'There's Jennifer, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'
A small voice at the back of the room rang out, 'And there's the teacher,
she's dead.' *

*A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. Trying to
make the matter clearer, she said, 'Now, class, if I stood on my head, the
blood, as you know, would run into it, and I would turn red in the face.'
'Yes,' the class said.* *
'Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the ordinary position
the blood doesn't run into my feet?'
A little fellow shouted,
'Cause your feet ain't empty..'

*The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school
for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made
a note, and posted on the apple tray:
'Take only ONE . God is watching.'
Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a
large pile of chocolate chip cookies.
A child had written a note, 'Take all you want. God is watching the apples.'
