Monday 23 November 2009

From looking at other peoples blogs, i changed my blog in different ways. By having a simple layout makes it easier for people to find text/pictures on your blog.
I changed my background colour to white and added a different title banner at the top of the page. Doing this has made the blog look clean and fresh. Before i had a black colour background and i thought it was quite dull and boring.
I also had a dark banner with an image on it but it wasn't very nice to look at. I make the banner in photoshop by simply typing some words and doing a special font.
My font that i have chosen now is easy to read as it is black/grey and does not clash with the page background and is also easy to read. I have also made the font quite big when talking about my peer blogs and artist blogs to again make it easy to read.

I really like everything about this blog. Right from the top of the page there is an interesting title with a really nice image.
The labels are set out really clearly and easy to read and find, also with interesting titles.
The colours all go together and everything seems to match which really makes the blog look better.
The images themselves are very good and very well edited, with a variety and they are all different which makes the blog more interesting.
The writing is small and could be made bigger but it all makes sense and everything is explained clearly.

I really like this blog as it is very easy to use and get around, finding what you want is not hard and everything is how its meant to be.
The pictures on the blog are very well edited and the labels have very interesting names. They are also very easy to find as they are right at the top of the page.
Instead of explaining, in every picture, this person has wrote how they saved each image which is a very good idea as it saves time and does look better.
The text under each image is very good but i dont think there is enough. Adding more text may improve the blog.

The layout of this blog is very easy to use and eye-catching with the bright colours.
There is a good use of labels set out so that people looking at the blog will be able to find what they want very easily.
The pictures on the blog are very interesting and there is a variety to look at.
There could of been more information/text on the pictures so that people know what the picture is about.

This blog is very well set out. The blog title really makes the blog itself look better. The colour of it and the font used looks very interesting.
The large never-ending pictures are set out clearly for people to see but maybe a bit to cluttered and some of the pictures are different sizes, look out of proportion to the other pictures.
There is no text on the blog, apart from random sections throughout the blog. This may be confusing for people as the text has no meaning.
There are no labels on the blog so it may be hard trying to find a specific picture on the blog but the list of exhibitors is clear and easy to read against the dark background.

This blog caught my eye when i opened it, just by looking at the large pictures.
There is no text on the blog which means people may not know what the image is about.
The layout of the blog looks professional but very cluttered. The pictures are so big that they don't really look right so close together.
The random text at the bottom is very confusing. Readers of the blog might not know what it is about. It also looks wrong right at the bottom of the blog.

The layout of this blog is very confusing to look at. The variety of colours on the blog and the different coloured spots make it had to read the writing.
The first picture on the blog is quite small and may be hard for people to see. If the picture was bigger, i think the blog itself would look better.
There is a variety of labels, meaning there are loads of pictures to look through.
Some of the writing is quite small making it hard for people to read.
