The first thing you have to figure out about your target audience is who they are. What kind of things do they do? What kind of music do they listen to? What products do they use? How old are they? The answers to these questions and many more will help you better understand the people you are designing for. Getting an understanding of these individuals helps you create with ease and make something you know will relate to them and end up communicating well.

Custom Website Design | Benefits Of Custom Web Design - 0 views

All of us utilize the internet practically daily. We choose the web to communicate, gather information, be entertained, complete various tasks, socialize, share files, buy or sell items, education, stay updated with what's happening, learn, and various other purposes. Websites signify the webpages where we navigate or do what we want on the web. Websites like google.com, facebook.com, ebay.com, youtube.com, wikipedia.org, amazon.com are exclusively some of the sites we regularly check when we surf the web but did you ever consider how these sites were created? Web Development happens to be the method of constructing a site and putting that up on the internet. The method is complex and challenging, but some experts can swiftly perform the job. What is website design? Web Design involves the design of the site as a whole. You instantly view a site and see the layout. Well, that is done as part of web designing. It can undoubtedly be beneficial to have a site that has remained well designed as it will likely be more spontaneous and, consequently, more suitable for visitors to use. There are two methods to design a website: Custom Web Design and utilizing Website Templates. No matter being expensive, this design approach is beneficial as specialized web designers design them for better conversion rates. On the other hand, a website can also reap benefits from using a website template which can be a cheaper option. However you can find out the benefits of a custom website design which may help you ease up your selection on the kind of web design needed. Benefits of custom website design With a custom website design, your website is likely to have a unique design. Custom website design enables you to stand out from the other competitors you have. You can understand what mistake your opponents are making with their site and avoid making the same errors on your site. It allows your website to advertise your brand efficiently and build a greater online presence. A c

Again, you have to know the target audience. If you or your client have no idea who you’re designing for, you’re really taking a stab in the dark and hoping and praying you come up with something. There are times when you may have a wide variety of people in your audience, but you’ve got to find a commonality between the majority of folks.
-
-
This is a good article about psychographics and knowing your target audience.
-

Also be aware that you’ve got to ask the right questions. If I want to know why people like that t-shirt design, I’m not going to ask them what size shirt they wear, I’m going to focus on the design. For example, why they like the design or what it means to them. You want to ask questions that will help you figure your audience out and help you make educated guesses on the things they’ll like in the future.
-
Keep in mind, demographic information is only useful to a certain extent. You still need to figure out what your audience likes and what they feel (as well as what they like to feel). Don’t get so caught up in asking the regular boring questions about age and income that you forget to ask about their interests as well.
-
Say that your web designs allow users to connect with a company in ways that were never imagined. Say that your product isn’t just a product but it contributes to your life in much deeper ways.
-
Try to highlight what you can do for them and not just your skill set.
-
Once you feel like you have a good grasp on your target market, you need to have an even better grasp of what you’re trying to do or what it is you are trying to design for. If you are trying to sell a product or service, what are you trying to convey about that product or service?
-
The greatest fundamental theory that you cannot ever lose is be visual hierarchy. As a designer, you have to remember and understand that you have all the power of figuring out what your audience looks at when they look at a flyer or a package. Use that to your advantage in everything you do. This theory basically states that you create hierarchy or importance based on what is the biggest and what is the smallest. While that’s the first contributor, the second contributor is going to be placement. Your most important visual, whether it be a headline or a picture, should be above or at eye level. Putting it below eye level or out of the initial view is a complete and total waste of time.
-
A lot of times, we want people to stop and notice something crazy we’ve done with a layout or something, but we shouldn’t be reinventing the wheel, we should just be making sure everything makes sense and is legible. You want whoever sees your visual to get the main points even if they’re only passing by.
-
As I said before, as a graphic designer, I just want to do fun designs with crazy colors, cool shapes, and illustrations. For my own personal business that works, because I tend to cater to trendier, younger folks who are interested in trying new things. However, sometimes I get a client who is less interested in that. I sometimes get clients who are extremely corporate, so I have to pull myself in a bit as they aren’t interested at all in cool and crazy designs. I don’t bore them to death with my design, but I will make sure there is focus on what needs focus.
-
Many times we can get caught up in ourselves and what we want, but it has nothing to do with what we want, and everything to do with what the audience wants.
-
Many designers and owners believe a website’s sole purpose is to tell everyone about your product or service and why it’s completely awesome. Well, I beg to differ. A website is supposed to be an extension of your business and should be used to communicate with current customers as well as potential customers. Keep it consistent with your target market and make yourself available on your website.
-
Make sure you have a clear message on your site—if you sell several products try to highlight one. If you have several different services highlight one or highlight the reasons why people keep coming back; create a feeling. No matter the demographics of your audience, your website should be clear and consistent.
-
I found this to be a great article about understanding who your target audience is when designing not only for personal purposes for my own business but also for the businesses that I design for.

ChromaChroma refers to the purity of a color. A hue with high chroma has no black, white or gray in it. Adding white, black or gray reduces its chroma. It’s similar to saturation but not quite the same. Chroma can be thought of as the brightness of a color in comparison to white.In design, avoid using hues that have a very similar chroma. Opt instead for hues with chromas that are the same or a few steps away from each other.
-
SaturationSaturation refers to how a hue appears under particular lighting conditions. Think of saturation in terms of weak vs. strong or pale vs. pure hues.In design, colors with similar saturation levels make for more cohesive-looking designs. As with chroma, colors with similar but not identical saturations can have a jarring effect on visitors.
-
using a hue with a high saturation against a background with low saturation can make the former really stand out.
- ...10 more annotations...
-
ValueValue could also be called “lightness.” It refers to how light or dark a color is. Ligher colors have higher values. For example, orange has a higher value than navy blue or dark purple. Black has the lowest value of any hue, and white the highest.When applying color values to your designs, favor colors with different values, especially ones with high chroma. High contrast values generally result in more aesthetically pleasing designs.
-
This website combines blue hues with two different values. Because the different values have enough contrast, the overall look is visually appealing.
-
Combining colors with similar muted saturation levels creates a soft design, which is emphasized by the watercolor effects.
-
Colors with very high chroma are best used in moderation
-
Cyan has a high chroma and so really stands out against black and white
-
TonesTones are created when gray is added to a hue. Tones are generally duller or softer-looking than pure hues.Tones are sometimes easier to use in designs. Tones with more gray can lend a certain vintage feel to websites. Depending on the hues, they can also add a sophisticated or elegant look.
-
Tones can be intensified by adding gray around them
-
ShadesA shade is created when black is added to a hue, making it darker. The word is often incorrectly used to describe tint or tone, but shade only applies to hues made darker by the addition of black.In design, very dark shades are sometimes used instead of black and can serve as neutrals. Combining shades with tints is best to avoid too dark and heavy a look.
-
TintsA tint is formed when white is added to a hue, lightening it. Very light tints are sometimes called pastels, but any pure hue with white added to it is a tint.Tints are often used to create feminine or lighter designs. Pastel tints are especially used to make designs more feminine. They also work well in vintage designs and are popular on websites targeted at parents of babies and toddlers.
-
While you don’t necessarily have to remember all of these technical terms, you should be familiar with the actual concepts, especially if you want to master part 3 of this series (in which we create our own color schemes). To that end, here’s a cheat sheet to jog your memory:Hue is color (blue, green, red, etc.).Chroma is the purity of a color (a high chroma has no added black, white or gray).Saturation refers to how strong or weak a color is (high saturation being strong).Value refers to how light or dark a color is (light having a high value).Tones are created by adding gray to a color, making it duller than the original.Shades are created by adding black to a color, making it darker than the original.Tints are created by adding white to a color, making it lighter than the original.

PHP: Expressions - Manual - 0 views
-
(scalar values are values that you can't 'break' into smaller pieces, unlike arrays, for instance
-
Expressions are the most important building stones of PHP. In PHP, almost anything you write is an expression
-
The simplest yet most accurate way to define an expression is "anything that has a value"
- ...16 more annotations...
-
PHP also supports two composite (non-scalar) types: arrays and objects. Each of these value types can be assigned into variables or returned from functions.
-
PHP is an expression-oriented language
-
Since assignments are parsed in a right to left order, you can also write '$b = $a = 5'
-
and that's the value of the assignment itself
-
A very common type of expressions are comparison expressions. These expressions evaluate to either FALSE or TRUE. PHP supports > (bigger than), >= (bigger than or equal to), == (equal), != (not equal), < (smaller than) and <= (smaller than or equal to). The language also supports a set of strict equivalence operators: === (equal to and same type) and !== (not equal to or not same type). These expressions are most commonly used inside conditional execution, such as if statements.
-
and is assigned back into $a,
-
The last example of expressions we'll deal with here is combined operator-assignment expressions
-
Adding 3 to the current value of $a can be written '$a += 3'
-
This means exactly "take the value of $a, add 3 to it, and assign it back into $a"
-
Any two-place operator can be used in this operator-assignment mode, for example '$a -= 5' (subtract 5 from the value of $a), '$b *= 7' (multiply the value of $b by 7), etc.
-
There is one more expression that may seem odd if you haven't seen it in other languages, the ternary conditional operator:
-
If the value of the first subexpression is TRUE (non-zero), then the second subexpression is evaluated, and that is the result of the conditional expression. Otherwise, the third subexpression is evaluated, and that is the value
-
Some expressions can be considered as statements. In this case, a statement has the form of 'expr ;' that is, an expression followed by a semicolon. In '$b = $a = 5;', '$a = 5' is a valid expression, but it's not a statement by itself. '$b = $a = 5;' however is a valid statement.
-
One last thing worth mentioning is the truth value of expressions. In many events, mainly in conditional execution and loops, you're not interested in the specific value of the expression, but only care about whether it means TRUE or FALSE. The constants TRUE and FALSE (case-insensitive) are the two possible boolean values.
-
Throughout the rest of this manual we'll write expr to indicate any valid PHP expression.
-
Functions are expressions with the value of their return value.

"Material is the metaphor A material metaphor is the unifying theory of a rationalized space and a system of motion. The material is grounded in tactile reality, inspired by the study of paper and ink, yet technologically advanced and open to imagination and magic. Surfaces and edges of the material provide visual cues that are grounded in reality. The use of familiar tactile attributes helps users quickly understand affordances. Yet the flexibility of the material creates new affordances that supercede those in the physical world, without breaking the rules of physics. The fundamentals of light, surface, and movement are key to conveying how objects move, interact, and exist in space and in relation to each other. Realistic lighting shows seams, divides space, and indicates moving parts." - ...5 more comments...

There are a few reasons why smiley is a better solution: Webkit+Font Management software can mess up local references, like turning glyphs into A blocks. (crbug.com/33173) On OS X, Font Management software may alter system settings to show a dialog when trying to access a local() font that's accessible outside of Library/Fonts. More detail on my bulletproof post. (crbug.com/29729) Font Explorer X is also known to mess up other stuff in Firefox: bugzil.la/531771 Although it's unlikely, you could reference a local() font which is completely different than what you think it is. (Typophile post on different fonts, same name) At the very least its a risk, and you're ceding control of the type to both the browser and host machine. This risk may not be worth the benefit of avoiding the font download. These are all pretty edge case issues, but it's worth considering. FontSquirrel has already made the smiley syntax the new default in the Generator, and you should use it going forward as well.
-
And.. regarding @font-face syntax I now recommend the bulletproof smiley variation over the original bulletproof syntax.
-
@font-face { font-family: 'Graublau Web'; src: url('GraublauWeb.eot'); src: local('?'), url('GraublauWeb.woff') format('woff'), url('GraublauWeb.ttf') format('truetype'); }
- ...5 more annotations...
-
in Webkit (Chrome/Safari), applying font-weight:bold to faux-bold some @font-face'd text will not succeed. Same applies for font-style:italic.
-
text-transform doesn't play well with @font-face in current implementations.
-
@font-face doesnt play nice with css transitions.
-
If a @font-face declaration is within a media query @media screen { ..., it will fail in Firefox.
-
SVG Fonts - Currently SVG is the only way to get webfonts working on iPhone and iPad.

Tips to identify the best Web Development company - 0 views

How difficult or easy is it to find the best web development company in the market? The answer would be "very easy" if you look at the sheer number of web development companies offering services. However, in reality, finding that perfect team of developers, who will help you craft an indelible digital presence is difficult- perhaps because of the same reason why we said that it's easy to find them. There are too many of them but not all of them are sufficiently credentialed to stay true to the demands of contemporary web development. Listed below are a few effective ways with the help of which you will be able to find the best web development company. Who or what exactly is a web developer? You have to remember that when you're hiring a web developer you're actually getting a technological partner on board. It all depends on the kind of business you're at the helm of. An e-commerce website, for example, entails variant technological and logistical challenges. So, make sure your technological partner is equipped accordingly. However, your compatibility doesn't solely depend on the technicalities but also on commitment and value for work. Check out their portfolio without fail. What kind of websites have they crafted so far? What is their USP? Is it the striking visuals? Or, the balance of professionalism and visual appeal that they have been able to achieve? Study these nuances thoroughly before getting anyone on board. Quality of Services Find out what the clients are saying about the quality of services offered by the company in question. Please make sure that you are not signing up for anyone's services until you aren't reaching out to the clients of the company to personally ask them about their experience. Please remember that taking all the aforementioned steps is necessary quite simply because of the fact that switching a web development company remains a time-consuming affair. Always ensure that you're looking at long-term relationships
