Have I planned and created pages for my website?

Yes i planned the sizes of my buttons and pictures so that it will fit onto the website page. I resized the pictures and buttons according to my plan

Have I added appropriate text and images to my website?

I have used catching text to catch the readers eyes and the images relate to what the title is and what im talking about. I have also kept the text simple making a simple font so that the reader can easily read what im writing

Have I planned and created hyperlinks to navigate through my web page?

I did not create hyperlinks because i had no time as i only created my main page. Next time i hope to improve my time efficency and try and work faster and more efficent so i can complete the task
Have I evaluated my pages to make sure they were suitable for a wide audience?

yes on my blog i have evaluated every lessson to show what i did and weather i thought it was hard or not.

I can describe the steps I have worked through to create my web pages and suggest how they can be improved?

I think i capble of creating another website but it would take me a longer time. I think i can improve my website by adding more things to it and also to make tags to other pages since i didnt complete my task

In this week we started creating our websites as you can i had title, we used our techniques and skillls we learnt in past weeks to create our website, we made buttons which were flashy and also were creative, we created our buttons by adobe photoshop. So far i only did my main page so i need to make my other pages and link it to my main page. I hope to finish my website soon!

In this week we started making our webstie using Adobe dreamweaver we used photoshop to design our buttons then pasted it on dreamweaver we made very flashy and attractive buttons, which liked making very much. We had to make the button according to the size of our plan.

What we did this week
This week we used Dremwever and created links on our web page. To other pages such as the concert and the Oscars. We did this by clicking on the object the at the bottom of dreamweaver you have the button which you drag to the file you want to link it to and there you have it. We made links to other pages where people could see more things.

What i found difficult
The thing i found most difficult was trying to work out how to create a link as i was not here on the week before and then i asked my friend which helped me. It was hard at first as i did not know how to create a link and that we had to create a new file before linking it onto that file. But as my friend told me i got the hang of it

what i would improve.
Since i had not much time in spending my time in decorating my web pages,i looked a bit dull and boring, so next lesson i aim to make my web pages more colorful and attractive and use some flashy colors.

Friday 13 feb 2009 evaluating websites

Website 1
Website 2
Web address of site (URL):
http://www.andertoons.com/ (a)
http://www.cartonnetwork.com/ (b)

1) What age group (young children, teenagers, adults) do you think this website is targeted at?
(a) this website is targeted mostly targeted at older people rather than children this is because they display office sales office cartoons rather than cartoons targeted at children



(b) This website is targeted at children because it features children cartoon characters such as scooby doo ben 10 etc. There are also children games and videos on it.


What was it about the website that helped you identify the target audience?

In website a it helped me identify it was targeted at adult because the cartoons were all about office and sales and bussiness , not the usual type of cartoons that a child would watch.



in website b it helped me identify it was targeted for children because there were games and videos for children and there was nothing that was realated to adults. The look was also very child like with a lot of colors and cartoon characters on the home page.


2) How have the colours been chosen to appeal to the target audience? Explain your answer with an example.



In website a the maker of the website chose a more simple color and formal color rather than many flashy colors. Instead it uses simple colors likewhite and blue.



In website b the maker of the website chose a lot of flashy colors with very appealing colors that would attract the children eyes. If the maker of the website chose very boring colors then no children would want to enter the website . The website also has many colors on it another factor to attract the children eyes


3) How has the layout been chosen to appeal to the target audience? Explain your answer with an example.



In website A the layout is very simple and clear the person who goes on the website can easily what (S)he wants to watch. Since most adults do not prefer flashy websites they prefer more simple websites



In website B the layout is very creative with pictures all over the place and flashy adverts in the website. And whenever you hover over something there is always some type of cool icon which show you what is. The layout is also very suitable for children because there is all the features a children wants to see


4) How has the content been chosen to appeal to the target audience? Explain your answer with an example.

A. In website A the content has been chosen to appeal to the target audience because it features bussiness cartoons unlike website b which features tv cartoons. On this website it is more suitable for adults as there are no childish cartoons on it

In website B it has a lot of TV cartoons such as batman, ben 10 etc. There are also games; you would not really find games on adult websites. In website A there is a simple content so the child can understand the website easily.

5) How has the language used been chosen to appeal to the target audience? Explain your answer with an example.

In website A the language is harder than in child websites. For example in one of the cartoons features on the home page of the website it talks about VPs, how would a child that is like five years old know what a VP is.

In website B the language is much easier and much understandable, there are no long boring sentences, most of them are just falshy words so the child can immedietly understand what is.
