Alright, so I have revised my color palette. I used a website called degraeve.com/color-palette and plugged in a few photos and decided on a different color than the light gray for the links and navigation color. I have tried several times to put in an image I created in photoshop as the header so that I can use the Caesar font I like, but have failed every time. Here’s the link to the logo I created. At least then you all can finally see what the font looks like. I tried following what it looked like was done on the thanksroy.org site using fire bug (thanks Trevor, awesome), but I really have no idea what I’m doing wrong. I’m pretty pleased with the new colors I decided on. I still am using the dark dark gray for the background color because I still feel it makes the images stand out the best. I also have decided to change the color of the links as you hover over them with the mouse because I think it makes the site have a bit more of an interactive feel… if that makes sense…
I figured out how to turn a powerpoint presentation into a pdf file and then managed to upload to the server (go me, I’m pretty proud of myself right now actually). I went to freepdfconvert.com to convert the powerpoint into pdf in case anyone is interested in doing it too and hasn’t figured it out yet. Then I just dropped the file into my images folder. So here’s the link to the design rationale and I just noticed that I lost the font I wanted in the conversion process, so please see the link above to my logo to see the proper font. I REALLY need to figure out how to put in an image for the header….
Nice picture. Stands out nicely. You are rolling along.
Thanks for the tip on the pdf site! I just wish it would convert Word 07 files … !
That color palette site is also pretty neat!
