Some Web Design Wisdom
Outside of doing this comic, I actually have two other jobs. First is a day job as a graphic designer (mostly web, as I’m sure you guessed). The other is as a professor at a local university. Recently I was asked to give some web design tips to one of the other teachers to help get students started. Here’s a few of them:
1. Web designing is as much about function as it is about form. Make sure text is readable, links are clear, buttons look like buttons, and you can tell where you are.
2. The site should look branded to the concept in every way possible. Even without the logo, you should know which site you’re on.
4. Web design isn’t print design. People need information and guidance as much as they need a cool graphic.
Nothing rocket science but a pretty good list of what students need to hear to start IMHO. The rest can be read HERE.
