What are three things you learned about color theory and web design  yesterday? Go in to detail.

Three things I learned about color theory is that the colors cant clash, and they have to go together. I learned to have the darkest color be your font color, and the lightest color be your background so your text is easy to see and read. These were some things that I learned with color theory.

What effect can a color scheme have on a website? How can it make a website better? How can it make a website worse? Explain why color is important.

Color scheme can change a lot on a website. It can either make or break a website. It can set the mood of you website right off the bat. If you have colors that clash, they look bad and break your website. If you have bright colors, its probably a happy topic, if its all dark and gloomy, then your website is probably more serious topic.

What did you learn about file types as you created and designed your travel website? What are some other kinds of file types you know of? What do these different files do? Explain.

I learned about .psd and Jpeg. A Jpeg is a photo that cannot be edited in photoshop. A jpeg is just a photo with no special properties. A .psd is a picture that can be edited in photoshop. It can be freely edited and needs to be changed into a Jpeg before posting on the internet.

What was your takeaway from this Travel Site? What did you learn that you didn't know before? How will the knowledge of how we built this site help you improve your future websites?

What I took away from the Travel Site we Div Tags. These are basically tables, but a lot easier to manage and move around. You can insert images as well just like tables. Another thing I learned was page behaviors. These make it able for your website to have "animations". Such as having an image change when your mouse rollovers it. This knowledge will help in upcoming website because div tags are cool

Think about how a user (me or anyone else using your site) might function and interact with your site. What are some important functional features to make your website easy to work with? How can you make it easier for the user and not frustrating? Explain why this is so important.


Some important functional features that are on my website is the navigation bar. This makes it easy for the user to navigate throughout all the different pages on my website. In general, to make a website easy to have a user interact with it, it needs to have a good color way. In other words, not having colors clashing and make it easy to read.

Tell me about your Sweetheart weekend. If you didn't go to Sweetheart, what did you do? I want details!

didn't go to sweetheart, and had a really boring weekend. My parents were out of town so I was home alone. I couldn't drive anywhere, and had nothing to do. I played video games, made some food that was all like microwave pasta that wasn't good. I obviously watched the super bowl and was impressed about the outcome.
