KEEPING TRACK

KEEPING TRACK:

Week 1:: Within the first week I managed to add a navigation bar, a background colour, and lists (disguised as footnotes) to the site. I, moreover started to choose fonts, which I would like to work with later on.
Week 2:: In Week 2 I added the TRACK-page to my website and focused more on the general aesthetic of the site, in which I created an external stylesheet. In this week the overall colour palette was changed, while the site got a more recognizable and consistent style through blocks. When it comes to the stylesheet: I added a thematic break, a grid container and the style of h1. I, moreover managed to separate the colours of the topnav and body links.
Week 3:: Week 3 consisted of the optimalisation of the image sizes for the web. Especially the MAIN IMAGE, which has been reduced from 399Kb to 100Kb.
Secondly, I combined this week's, and next week's assignment in one: As the images of 'Banana Cinnamon Pancakes','Banana Cinnamon Pancakes 1', and 'Banana Cinnamon Pancakes 2' were cropped to the same width of 600px, while I added image maps to all of them. I, moreover, tried to achieve the highest possible image compression without a visible loss of quality, and created a seprate thumbnail of 100px, which was added to the HOMEPAGE and forms a link to the BANANA CINNAMON PANCAKES-page.

This thumbnail is, moreover, accompanied by a button, which leads to the a BANANA CINNAMON PANCAKES-page as well.

Week 4:

As was said before, I combined Week 3 and 4's assignments in one. I created the BANANA CINNAMON PANCAKES-page and tried to make it search engine friendly and add the term to my meta description. The aim was to keep the page user friendly, without losing sight of the human visitors, while trying to get the page indexed by Google.

Week 5:

This week consisted of cleaning up my website aesthetically. I added an overall container, which would hold all of my div elements and made overall design improvements. Lastle, to adhere to this overall design improvement, I added the use of columns to create a more coherent whole.

Week 6:

As our second to last assignment, we were instructed to create a Web Usability Review for the site above ours, which in my case happens to be Franka Muller's website. To make this review easily accessible, I added a new page to my website.

THE FINAL RESULT:
