The Design Of Our Blog!
Using one of the default
templates on the Blogger website, we adapted some of the design elements to
suit our personal preferences. We chose blue for the colour theme as we felt it
to be neutral and to be complimentary to the topic. The hope for this neutral
colour is to help the user to feel comfortable expressing their opinions no
matter which way they go with their contributions.
We chose the Verdana font for the
blog because it is a familiar one to most computer users as it is available on
most document viewing/editing software. The font size seemed appropriate
because it was legible on a variety of screen sizes (tested). The white font
colour was chosen as it was easier to read and blends well on the blue
background.
The three column page layout was
selected with the sizes shown to ensure that the middle column would be bigger
as a point of focus for the reader. Also by having the “About Me” and
“Followers” sections on different sides of the page, this created less clutter
on either side of the main ‘Posts’ sections. The three column set-up also
provides symmetry to the page which is aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
