Design. You may have questions or not know exactly how to answer these right now. ThatŐs o.k. This is just an opportunity to start thinking about whatŐs needed before we meet.

Look and Feel of the site:

Who is your audience, target market, typical visitor?

How will your audience view your page?

Who will maintain it after the class is finished?

Which software (if any) do you currently have available for maintaining the site?

Please provide 2-3 examples of sites you like:

It is very helpful if you provide us with any available copies of your company's letterhead, brochures, catalog, etc. so we can see how you present your company image.

What is the tone you would best characterize your site to be (i.e. subdued, helpful, supportive)?

Do you have any trademarks or service marks? If so, please list them here and indicate which are registered trademarks.

Is there a particular font(s) you want to use for your site? _________________________

Do you have the following? Please indicate the number you have to be included on the site:

Photos: _____ Slides: _____ Negatives: _____ Other Graphic Images: _____

Graphics: The quality appearance of your Web site has a lot to do based on the photos or graphics you choose for your Web pages. Clipart can be used, but tends to make the pages look amateurish. Photos are best. You may send graphics to us in either digitized form or hard copy photos which we will scan. You will want to prepare captions for each photo. You may affix a PostIt Note to the photo to indicate its caption and which Web page it goes on. Do not use staples or paperclips on the photos. They may scratch the image area to be scanned. If you need us to prepare specialized graphic elements, please explain clearly, and perhaps include a sketch. If photos are unavailable, there are several web sites that provide stock photographs for a minimal fee. We can help you select the photos from these websites if needed.
