       The art of being an artist... What are the criteria of being a good designer? Should a designer be a painter or may a good painter be a professional web designer creating professional web design, flash animation development etc, you wonder? This is a question that many employers have asked to themselves while looking for a staff. There is an opinion that a good designer that works with graphics on your web pages cannot be a good painter.

      Our professional team of web graphics designers have broken this stereotype. All our designers have successfully combined the both qualities - the taste for arts and skills of web graphic design. If you posses some skills and can draw that does not mean that you are a painter. If you have learn several programs such as Photoshop and Corel Draw, that does not mean you can create professional web design. If someone has a camera that does not make him a professional photographer at all.

     Many people can use graphics technologies nowadays but only a few can do it well. So what is the difference between a web graphic designer and a good designer? A good designer is a painter in his soul. A good designer thinks about their work as about a piece of art, dreaming deep in their soul to be a contemporary Michelangelo creating their own "David" in the web space.

     "When I receive an order, the first thing that occurs to my mind is - I want to create something that would really enjoy my customer, I want to create something that would make people come back again and watch my work the same way they watch beautiful paintings in the art gallery" - says one of our web graphic designer. Surely, a good remuneration is a good motivation but not for those who think about the artistic side of the matter and for whom graphics on the web is more than a way to earn money.

    That's the main principle our Design Studio follows - we are eager to create a "David" or an "Aphrodite of Milos" for our customers and not just to accomplish their order.

    Any thing done with passion may become a real piece of art, whether we are speaking about a painting created by an artist or a biscuit cooked by a chef keen on art of cookery. The main difference between a simply done task and a piece of art is that in the first case you just finish what they have ordered, in the second you create. You are putting a piece or your soul in every smallest detail, you give a piece of your imagination, your talent. The more generous you are, the better things you are creating come to this world. Being generous enough to give your inner world to other people, not being afraid to be refused or misunderstood, being brave enough is a passport to success.

    Just imagine that you are given a task to create the design of children room interior. You are given the whole idea, the colors suggested, the furniture and other details are already discussed. And then you meet the children whom the room is dedicated to, and you learn from them that urban-style graphics on their walls is not what their dream about, that the kids love the jungles and safari-like decorated walls with huge multicolored African motifs.

    What you can do is just to follow the original order however the understanding of the fact that what you are doing is not what will make your customers happy will not allow you to make a real masterpiece. However, you can sheer and make a wonderful child room with giraffes, hippopotamus, lions and tall trees supporting vivid African sly with their green tops. Of course it won't be what your customers have originally ordered. But their final goal was to make a room comfortable for their children and to make them happy. And offering them a draft of your African room instead of dull New-York style-like studio would be a risk but at the same time it would be a demonstration of your boldness to show that you are an artist above all and a perfect performance would prove that you are the one who creates professional design as well.

    Being a good designer does not stand for a qualified performance of your job but also for creation of something that would approach your customer to the feeling of possessing something of high value, unique and precious.

      What makes any web site successful? What increases the number of your visitors, making them coming back again and again? The answer is simple - surely, web graphics on your web site! If you have a professional web design you may consider to have half the battle on the business battlefield! Bright and efficient graphics on your web pages will catch an eye, help to promote your business, serve as your visiting card and generally make the first impression about your business and its owners. The elements of graphics on your web site must be loaded simultaneously with the page and then be reflected properly in the web browser.

      All the graphics elements should be placed in the same folder named IMG or images. Then the IMG folder is copied into the html-pages catalog. Now the person involved in professional web deisign and web development may think about how to implement the the image into the web pages. We use the attribute SRC to specify the location of the image resource. SRC stands for "source". The value of the SRC attribute is the URL of the image you want to display on your page. In other words, the attribute SRC shows the file's location. Here is how the syntax of a defined image should look like: <img src="/img_articles/15361/url" > where URL stands for image location (i.e. where the image is stored). However, besides this one, there are other attributes responsible for different additional features related to image placement on the web pages.

      The ALIGN attribute serves to align the graphics on your web page. The attribute allows two values assigned - left and right. The value LEFT makes the web browser place an image on the left of the text as well as the value RIGHT allows to place the image on the right relative to the text. You should note that if the attribute ALIGN has already been used to align the text relative to the graphics on your specified page, you will not be allowed to set the parameters of text flow around the image. The attribute ALIGN allows to place the text between two graphical images. In this case the tags describing the image shall be placed over the text that is to be enclosed between them.

    The ALT attribute helps to add comments that will be reflected if the web browser cannot load the graphics on your web page. The attributes WIDTH & HEIGHT help to assign the width and the height of the image you are placing. However, these attributes are not recommended to be used for the images in jpg format since an incorrect value assignment may result in deterioration of graphics quality. So before you insert any graphics on your web pages you should correct its parameters with the help of any graphics editor. If the while background of the page is not what you really want, you can put any graphical background on your page with the help of the attribute BACKGROUND of the tag <BODY>. Since the web browser automatically places the image copies the way they fill in the whole page, so the image you apply for your background may be done small in size.

     You should remember that while creating a graphical background of your page you should use such images that provide interesting visual effects and at the same time that would not disturb your customers from reading the text itself. For example, placing a text on the page with tiger background would result in lost of interest to your content since the reading would be completely uncomfortable in this case. A good image being repeated multiple times looks "smooth", without any seams or joints. Don't forget to pay attention to the color and size of your font if you make a graphical background to achieve absolute easiness in reading. The attribute BORDER helps the designers to assign the frame's size around the graphical image. Experienced web graphic designers recommend to use gif format for graphics web site elements such as menus and banners and for jpg format for full-color images. Anyway, whatever you apply, keep in mind the fact that you are creating your professional web design for your potential customers and your web site should be easy to use from the point of web graphic design and web development.

Flash based websites are being widely used all across the web world by web designing agencies for creation of websites and this is predicted to increase in numbers too. But there have also been a number of disputed discussions on the usability and applicability of these flash based web desiging. Here are some of them which will tell us how useful or how unnecessary are these Flash based websites.

Lets begin with some Good aspects of Flash Based websites- Flash action scripts have the ability to make websites interactive and lively. Many designers have done flash web designing for websites in order to make them more user friendly, interactive feedback forums to flash games, all can be added in the websites to make them appear human.

One advantage of flash web designing is that it does away with the fear of browser compatibility. Several web designers face the problem of browser compatibility, what looks good in one browser sa IE, might just clutter the look of the website in other websites like Firefox or Opera. But if your website is created in flash it shall be visible in any browser provided you have installed the flash player on to your machine.

As we all know, it is better to express ideas and thoughts across to people if they are rightly expressed. And this conveying of expressions is possible only with flash. The creatively constructed flash animations make message exchange easier.

Now for some drawbacks of flash web designing a website created in flash will be visible on a computer only if it has a flash player installed. If parts of your web designing is done in flash and the remaining are in HTML, and you do not have a flash player installed, then the sections on flash will appear blank. Many websites provide an option to download flash onto your website, but that again is an additional wastage of time.

One major drawback of flash websites is the inability of the search engines to read flash content. The search engine crawlers are designed to read only text matters, places where the web designing firms have used flash to show articles will go unread by the search engines. This results in incomplete optimization of the websites.

Flash files are huge in size, hence take a longer time to downloading. This might result in your visitor getting impatient and moving out of your website, finding it nonfunctional.

Your business needs a website. Here's a quick primer on how not to screw it up.

Anyone who faces the challenge of having a website built faces a very daunting task, indeed. You know your business needs a web site, or perhaps you need to rebuild what you've already got. Getting is right is a delicate balance of business objectives, usability for the web, and search engine promotion. Getting it wrong is what this article is designed to help you avoid.

Here are the five biggest mistakes you must avoid.

1. Not establishing objectives

Without a thorough plan to kick things off, what are you building? It's kind of like showing up at the airport one day and saying, "I'm going on a vacation." Where are you going? Where will you stay when you get there? How long will you go for? Can you afford it? Did you ask your boss for the time off? Did you shut off the oven?

To start, figure out what you want the benefits of your website to be. Forget about the bells and whistles required to make it happen; that's the job of your web designer. Establish what you want your website do for your business. Some examples: generate leads, sell your products/services right on the website, reduce administrative tasks, brand your company, pre-qualify prospects, recruit employees - the things a website can do for your company are virtually limitless. Establish your objectives and ensure that you and your web designer understand them fully.

2. Ignoring your customers

We're talking about your messaging here. It's so easy to write your content from an internal perspective. What you want to say, what you think is compelling, what you think matters. What about your customers? Don't forget that you need to convince them to do business with you. The key to writing good, customer-centric content is to understand the "why". Why should your customers buy from you? You might think you know, but a good dose of objective research will uncover the truth. Capitalize on your unique selling proposition from the perspective of how it benefits your customers.

You will also need to use proper web style in your writing. Your content should be well organized, highly scan able, easy to digest, and to the point. If you can organize it in a "pyramid" style, even better. This is where the most important, compelling information is presented first, and deeper information follows (such as technical specifications). Depending on your strengths this may be difficult for you to produce, so you may consider hiring a professional writer or copywriter.

3. Forgetting the marketing

There is an old Kevin Costner baseball movie that has an analogy that is so clichéd I simply cannot bring myself to repeat it. In the realm of baseball and the afterlife it may be true, but in the world of the web, it sure ain't. When your website is built, it is an island; and a deserted one at that. Your customers don't know about it and neither do the search engines. You need to tell them. You need to market your website.

Getting your website noticed by the right people is key. You're not actually marketing to search engines here. Search engines are simply a means to an end. You need to market to your customers. You must understand that your customers use different online methods to find what you sell; and this most likely includes search engines.

You may also consider newsletter advertising, email advertising, PR campaigns, social networking, etc. The exact approach you need to take depends on your objectives, how your target audience looks for what you sell, your budget, your industry, etc.

4. Not measuring the results

So, how did you do? You built a great web site and marketed the heck out of it. How many people came to your site? How many became leads? How many leads did you turn into customers? How much were they worth? What content did your visitors like and not like? {Insert your own redundant questions here}

Just like any marketing venture, you must measure the results in order to find out if it was successful. I'm talking about things like:

A tracking plan. Your leads might call you instead of buying online or using your contact form. You need a plan to track them, and how they found you. If you're running offline marketing campaigns, setup a separate domain name, create a unique web page, or use a separate 800 number. Online forms specific to a marketing campaign can be really useful as well.

Statistics and reporting. Good statistics can tell you a lot about how people use your website. Google Analytics is a wonderful package, easy to install, and totally free. More than this, you need to understand the numbers, and draw conclusions. This takes quite a lot of practice and understanding. A professional web design or marketing company can help you with this.

Adapt. Use your results, don't just read them. This will invariably require consulting with an expert again, but you need to act on your results to improve them. This is an on-going process. Forever.

5. Getting Paralyzed

A lot of web design projects never see the light of day because they get mired down in perpetual planning. There comes a time when you need to act. You won't get it perfect the first time out (or ever), but you've got to move. If you aim, re-aim and re-aim forever, you'll never actually get off a shot. Aim - shoot - repeat.

A quick caveat: I'm not telling you to put up a poorly written and poorly constructed web site just to have something; that can be very dangerous. A bad website can turn customers away and, even worse, have them poison your business through negative word of mouth. What I am telling you to do is to not get paralyzed trying to perfect your plan. Hiring the right team of experts can get you on track, and get things moving.

Hopefully this article helps steer you away from the most common (and dangerous) pitfalls of web design. Whether you hire a professional, create your site internally, or do it on your own from start to finish, keep these tips in mind.

In Summary

By avoiding these five common mistakes you can ensure that your website has a fighting chance. Let this article serve as a map so you can avoid, at a minimum, some of the bigger and more costly detours.

You may have a beautiful website, it may win awards for excellence in design, but unless the designer has taken into account the principles of Search Engine Optimization (SEO), you may need to consider a redesign. You may have an old website, it does its job, it tells people about your company, but it's slow and the content, it's a bit out of date. In both cases, you definitely need to consider a redesign.

Both websites will struggle to get the volume of traffic that they could receive. The new well-designed site may get traffic for those looking specifically for that site, but anyone using a keyword search for your product or services won't find you.

The older site with out of date content loses out because the Search Engines think (due to the lack of fresh content) that the site is dormant or dead. Both of these websites could receive great traffic and a potentially lucrative increase in business, but without consideration of SEO, they won't get any share of that possible income.

So what should one look for in a site that might need a redesign?

All Flash

Although there have been significant advances in Search Engine technology and they are beginning to read some flash, a site that's all flash is likely to be dreadful for Search Engines. They will be pretty, but the Search Engines won't rank them highly because the content is essentially unreadable. But what about major corporations that rank highly but have flash-only sites? These sites have such a high rate of linkage that their flash content probably doesn't matter, unless you can compete with a major corporation, an all flash sites is a no go.

Frames

Frames in your website make it difficult for search engines to index its pages. What's more, human visitors really struggle with frames, they're difficult to read and it's hard to get an impression of the site. Some browsers don't even support frames, meaning your site is entirely unreadable for those potential customers.

Splash Pages

Web designers using splash pages really make a visual impact on the visitor. Imagine the entire webpage as an animated page, straight out of a cartoon. Very impressive. Unfortunately, from an SEO point of view, they're horrible. Splash pages generally contain little or no text content; have no links and full of flash and other software which the Search Engines still find difficult to assess for a ranking. You may impress with your Splash Pages, but kiss goodbye to many potential customers.

Slow Loading

Very simply, a slow loading page puts off both human visitors and search engine crawlers. Human visitors may not have the patience to wait for the pages to load and search engines almost always rank the faster loading pages above the slower ones. If your site has slow loading pages, they need replacing.

Out of Date Content

First, the Search Engines will simply ignore this site as if it no longer exists. It may have been ok in the past to leave your content for months without updating it, but these days, it will soon slip off the radar without regularly updated content. What's more, nothing puts off a human visitor more than out of date content.

If your site contains any of the above SEO problems, you need to implement a redesign; it's costing you potential income.

Do colors influence web site visitors?

Several years ago, having a web page (as a business or as an individual), was an indicator of prosperity, and required a certain amount of financial power. Nowadays, almost everybody has one. They are easy to create (thanks to instant web page generators), even if they are not always works of art.

The main problem resides primarily in choosing the right colors for the web site. It is not always easy to properly assort the background color with the text color. The readability of a page can be influenced negatively if the color contrast is badly chosen. The background of web pages is white by default, like a sheet of paper.

Colors for Web Site Visitors

Researchers agree that colors greatly influence the human psychic. Consequently, the color scheme that you use on your web site can entice the visitor to engage in the goal of your site (i.e. make a purchase or request your services) or leave it after the first few seconds. It is the human nature to yield to the concept according to which "the first impression counts".

Even if they are not aware of it, your visitors will be greatly influenced in their decision to keep browsing your site or to leave it because of the poor choosing of colors and other visual displayed elements. On a psychological level, they will respond to the stimuli offered by the web site.

When viewing a web page, people will get excited, happy or bored. All this depends on the color selection. You need to be aware of the audience to which you're addressing and make the right choices. Color is a great means of communications, and it is best to make sure that you are saying the right thing.

Here are a few tips that you should consider

·         Use a palette of colors found in nature. They are more pleasing than any of their artificial counterparts. Combine them in order to get the emotional response that you want to get from your visitors. Unnatural colors, such as bright greens, blues or reds usually cause eye fatigue and chase visitors (i.e. prospects) away

·         Create a strong contrast between a page's background and its text. The best combination for readability is black text on white background, but there are other excellent combinations also. Besides white, other effective web site background, colors are dark blue, gray and black.

·         Avoid pairing blue and red, or blue and yellow. Green text on red background or red text on green / blue background are also choices that you shouldn't make, because such combinations usually cause eye fatigue.

·         Select up to five (some say seven) different colors and use them consistently throughout the web site.

·         Avoid using the blue color for small texts and diagrams with thin lines. Apparently, the specialized eye receptors for blue are the least numerous.

·         Be aware that there are lots of people with color perception problems, so it might be quite difficult for them to perceive the message transmitted by your site the way you want them to.

·         While some colors are dull by themselves, such as black, or gray, their juxtaposition with, for example, orange, can create outstanding effects.

·         Use white spaces to balance the other colors from your site. It will make web pages easy on the eyes.

·         Make sure you always perform a readability test for your web site. Use different shades of one color and, above all, pay attention to the harmonization of the different colors you use.

Common Colors and Their Most Common Meanings

·         Red : energy, passion, excitement, power; also implies aggression, danger.

·         Blue : coolness, spirituality, freedom, patience, loyalty, peace, trustworthiness; can also imply sadness, depression.

·         Yellow : light, optimism, happiness, brightness, joy.

·         Green : life, naturalness, restfulness, health, wealth, prosperity; in certain contexts, can imply decay, toxicity.

Using Colors for Web Site Elements

It is a good thing to differentiate between the elements of your web site by using various colors. You can use colors for identification, grouping or emphasis. For example, groups of related web pages can be identified by some particular color scheme, thus making it easier for a visitor to identify their place in your web site's architecture.

Certain information that needs to be brought to the visitor's attention can be highlighted by means of color. This improves scanning and can help reduce visual fatigue.

An important factor in the development of a web site is the use of various colors for hyperlinks, in order to help users distinguish between pages they have already viewed and pages that they haven't visited yet.
