Directions
- plan elements and ideas that will define a feel and personality
for your site.
What messages should
your site send? Will it be playful or serious, persuasive or entertaining,
mature or youthful, Midwestern or urban, etc.
A good way to generate
ideas is to find sites that you like and use them for inspiration.
Maybe you like the navigation scheme of a site. Perhaps the glossiness
of buttons or icons. Perhaps you found sites with color
schemes that inspire you. Yet
another
site is noted for its functionality. You may find a site
that amazes
you with how much content is effectively organized onto the page
or another that does a lot with simplicity and only a little content
on a lot of "white space."
Consider the following

a Site Personality:
