D#6HW#6: 10 Tips For Improving WordPress - Redesigner.org - 0 views

  • On one of my WordPress blogs, I had installed many WordPress plugins and a few of them were not necessary.
  • When you have image-heavy blog posts and themes, your website takes a longer amount of time to load
  • ordPress has a default search engine feature that can be replaced with other search engines with similar functionalities. The advantages of Google Custom Search is to improve customer retention and conversions. You can also control branding and enhance results presentation via XML results. The Google Custom Search Engine can quickly index your website through on-demand indexing as well. You can make money through the use of AdSense for search using the Custom Google Search Engine.

    This website is useful because it not only describes what repetition is but it gives quite a few examples of different ways to use repetition in different contexts. For example, it shows how to use repetition in a business card, article, magazine, etc. It also stresses that although repetition occurs naturally, we need to get in the habit to make a conscious effort to use repetition.

How to Evaluate Your Blog - 0 views

  •  
    This website gives very important guidance to learning how to self-evaluate your blog. The steps involved with evaluating your blog include: read your post, read it aloud, ask big questions, and lastly read it again. When reading it, silently or aloud, it is important to focus on what you like about the post and what you dislike. When reading it out loud, make sure the words create a flow that is easy for the audience to follow.

Presentation Design: Principles and Techniques - 1 views

  •  
    This article was my favorite because it's something that I can use in the future as far as presentations for my classes. This article has a page dedicted to repition in powerpoint presentations. The author stresses that repition adds a sense of unity through out the presentation. Consistent backgrounds and types of fonts are automatically incorported in the program. The author gives a warning of this automatic generated background consistency, it can be a bit tiring for the audience. The author suggests to shift the content of different slides in a way that doesnt interfere with the main message of the presentation. The page also gives examples of presentation slides that use repition in a subtle way.
  •  
    This website had a good explanation of why you should incorporate the element of repetition to the work that you create.
  •  
    This webpage describes how to implement repetition within a visual presentation. Many examples are shown and support the statement that says, "While contrast is about showing differences, repetition is about subtly using elements to make sure the design is viewed as being part of a larger whole."

D#6HW1: Dustin Brewer Web Design » Blog Archive » CRAP design 2: Using repeti... - 0 views

  • This article is of course about repetition and the uses it has in any type of design.
  • epetition is best used when making some aspect of the design repeat itself throughout the rest of the design. The reason for this is familiarity for the end user or viewer, this gives the person a sense of calm and understanding.
  • When a user becomes comfortable with a design they will come back time and again because they know that every time they are looking for something on the magazine, brochure or web site they know that the format is going to be the same and their answer will always be in that same area.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • For instance, if you have a business card with big bold company name and in the same style of big bold you have the phone number you are going to make your viewers eyes move back and forth between the company name and phone numbers giving you the two most important pieces of information that you are looking for when you are holding a business card.
  • Another easy way to add repetition is with typography, using the same font (type face, color, and size) throughout your design will help to bring everything together.
  •  
    I think this one is just a great resource on repetition. I especially like the authors use of the acronym. Repetition in design seems like a lot of fun and I can't wait to apply

D#6HW#1: Repetition « The Write Way - 0 views

  • sing consistent language is one of the cornerstones of technical writing. Use the same phrase repeatedly, again and again and again. The reader gets used to the phrase and can more easily skim to what is important rather than concentrating on reading the same thing, but phrased differently. Variety, so the technical writing law goes, is great for works of fiction, or indeed most other forms of literature, just not for technical writing.

    Repetition is not only in design I feel, but also in the language and content in the web.
