“The Perfect Workflow”
I found that the Wireframe exercises helped the most with the development of my web pages. By laying out the general location of my images on paper it allowed me to visually see and imagine how the website will flow. Also I enjoyed the Photoshop prototypes to play with color, alignment, and over all feel of the page.

Final Blog
Through out the year our CSS Web Site Design book was very helpful to me. I relied on this book to give me step-by-step instructions to help me design and develop a quality web site for my client. This book gave me the tools to design a site that’s both appealing and functional.
The tutorial movies on Lynda.com were useful as well. Although since the book had been right in front of me I was able to look at that for as long as I wanted, without rewinding and starting over.
Andy Clarke’s Transcending CSS book helps us see the different ways you can design a web site. This book has been useful to me this semester in the layout and design of my web pages. It showed me to make as may designs as possible to see what the best layout is for my client.
Some of Andy Clark’s technical information about CSS was useful but the book was not worth the price.
I have found that I have learned to-
- draw out site designs
- choose the best layout for the client
- how to take clients problems and fix them by new designs
