This website shows how a web designer can effectively develop emphasis in a web page. This web page can be used as an instruction guide for a web designer create emphasis in their web pages.
The reason I chose to bookmark this website is because it was written by another student who obviously went through the process of writing instructions. Ms. Wetherinton give states the do's and dont's of writing instructions and she puts in a way that other students can understand. I think that this will help me with project one because this page lays out very important and valid concepts that must be present in order to write effective instructions.
I like this web page because it describes how to write directions from a student stand point. It is obvious she has written directions before. Also, this page is more down to earth and easier to read than some pages. push #2
This website displays 50 great examples of websites that use abstract designs on their pages. These pages are great inspiration for any designer interested in utilizing abstract designs. Abstract designs are unique and memorable making them perfect for web pages.
This page first lets you know what contrast is and how you use it and then goes on to give examples of contrast and how it can be used. This page and the examples are very helpful for beginners.
This site reinforces the principle of contrast. I like the definition that it provides. "Contrast makes a page more interesting so the reader is more apt to pay attention to what is on the page."

This youtube video shows how to create and edit pages. I found this interesting because I have never utlized the pages option before only the posts
"Alignment is another way of creating associations between visual elements, which help users quickly understand the relationships of objects on a page."
Although this webpage isn't reallf long, I think it is simple and imformative about what alingment is. It also discusses the use of grids in graphic designs and it also explains the types of text alignments that are discussed in the book. Overall this website is short, simple and sweet but helpful.
Some more advanced principals of design that can be used to attract readers. This particular page goes over how elements in web page design can be put in balance to create greater (or lesser) impact to an audience.
I think this is a great resource because it caters directly to digital writing in that it is aimed at how balance works and can be achieved in web design. (10/14)
Good visual flow exists when the viewer of your page takes a tour through all of its elements, understanding what's important, taking in the key pieces and avoiding snags or dead-ends.
