June 28th, 2007 by ipoelcool

Web templates are designed to be customized so that a designer – novice or expert professional – can quickly make the website unique for themselves or their clients. When you buy a premade webpage template you get what you need to start a website quickly and economically.

When you buy a premade webpage template you get what you need to start a website quickly and economically. Web templates are designed to be customized so that a designer – novice or expert professional – can quickly make the website unique for themselves or their clients. What files will I get when I buy a template? The files that you receive may differ depending on who you buy from, what type you buy and what the available features are for that type of template. Whatever type of template you select there are some files that should accompany your purchase: Index.html file, jpeg/gif image files, font files, External CSS Style sheets, and PSD files. – You may also receive .js file (for templates that use JavaScript) and readme.txt files. Usually these files are sent to you in a .zip format. You need to unzip them to use them. You can make use of unzipping software like WinZip to unzip the files. This software can be downloaded from winzip.com.

What rights do I have with the web templates? Basically there are two types of templates: exclusive – copyrighted templates and nonexclusive – non-copyrighted templates. The exclusive template gives ownership rights to the buyer but the nonexclusive template does not. Exclusive webpage templates usually cost more but they insure that your template is not sold to any other buyer. You may use the template however you wish and resell it to other customers. A nonexclusive template is less expensive and gives you only usage rights over the template. This means you can modify the template as you wish but you may not resell it to a third party. Non-exclusive templates also mean that the same template can be resold by the template provider to more than one customer. Check out the display of both kinds of templates at Template Monster How can the web templates be edited? Editing involves inserting your content, changing parts of the style and adding or changing any graphic elements. This is done using files provided with your purchase: psd and index.html for example.

Editing images and graphics You would require PSD files in order to edit images and graphics like change image color; add/remove image layers etc. PSD files are those created using Photoshop and can be edited using Photoshop, ImageReady, imac or other image editing software programs. You can also change images to your liking.

Editing Your Content:
If you only want to change or add content of the template, you just go to edit the index.html file. The index.html file is provided for all webpage templates by the seller and can be edited with any html editor like FrontPage or Dreamweaver. You may also edit content using text editors. Index.html can also be used for removing or replacing the images or changing links as well as adding meta-tags, alt texts, title and changing the image sources.

Editing Your Layouts and Styles:
To edit layouts and styles you would need a CSS style sheet. The CSS style sheet is essentially a document that lets you make changes like text color, paragraph spacing, headings, links, etc. to multiple pages at one time. Be sure to ask the seller to give you the external CSS style sheets because they make it very easy to do any editing. The CSS style sheet can be edited using any of the HTML or text editors. You can use the web template customization services that are provided by most template providers if you are having difficulty.

An Insight to Logos by LogosArea

An Insight to Logos

Logos are very common today. Very often, we underestimate the value and power of a logo in a successful business. A logo is the image which represents a company or its product. Its function is to create a memorable, recognizable impression on the mind of a potential client or customer. A logo is essentially at the heart of a corporate identity.

So what makes a “good” logo? Most people would answer “I just know it when I see it!” and this isn’t so far from the truth. A good logo catches the eye – it makes the observer curious or engaged, if only for a short moment? a moment in which an image and the existence of your company is embedded in the mind rather than filtered out with a million other daily stimuli. But even if a good logo ‘just is’, there are elements for making it happen ? and we will look at some of those. I will also discuss some of the issues designing logos which work in two distinct worlds – print and online.

There are three basic types of logos, which can be used alone or combined within one design:

* illustrative logos (a logo which clearly illustrates what your company does), * graphic logos (a logo that includes a graphic, often an abstraction, of what your company does), and * font-based logos (a text treatment which represents your company)

Creating a logo is always a process – though different designers have their own methods. Many designers will begin by sketching thumbnails or playing with shapes on the computer screen, until something “clicks” and they follow that path to see where it leads. One way to start is to select a shape which represents the concept of the company, and begin playing with it. The idea is to come up with something interesting or clever, whether a viewpoint which is different, or an unusual combination of shapes. Perhaps it will be something which will require some guesswork on the part of the viewer, but then be crystal clear when they look at it another way.

Many designers prefer to developing logos beginning with, or consisting entirely of text. By experimenting with fonts, size, shapes they seek to find an interesting way to represent the company using the form of letters. Again, simplicity is extremely important – this is not the time to use fancy decorative fonts. Whether alone or combined with graphic elements, the text in a logo must be easily readable at small sizes

Once a form for the logo has been defined, color needs to be considered. Again, color for a logo should remain simple. You can always get fancy with the web version, but a good logo must work well in one color and gradients of that color. The color should enhance and support the form of the logo – for example, various shades of blue on the sides of a 3D box should be the same as they would in real life. Contrast is another powerful concept in the creation of logos – you can contrast size, color, fonts, textures – to create visual interest. A logo should be simple and abstract, not be complicated or confusing, and again, all elements must be discernible when reproduced in small sizes.

A good logo works in the simplest form. With the advent of the Web, it is common to see logos which contain gradients, 3D effects, animation, and other visual effects. But if the logo can not also be reduced to a simple one color flat version for use on faxes, your checks and photocopied documents, it is functionally useless. As tempting as it might be to create a whiz-bang logo, a designer must always consider all the ways your companies identity will be disseminated. Once this is successfully accomplished, you can always jazz up your logo later for the web! As mentioned before, size is a critical issue when having a logo designed. A good rule of thumb is that if the logo works well in a business card size, it will scale up nicely to other sizes. Always make sure your logo looks pleasing on paper and in a wide range of sizes before committing to it. Get Your Brand New Logo designed at LogosArea.com (http://www.logosarea.com)

Web and print are two entirely different mediums. If you are having a logo designed for the first time, it is essential that you be aware that your logo must be designed for print FIRST and web second. Without getting into the intricacies of print and web resolutions, suffice it to say they are very different. What might look great on your computer screen will likely print out at the size of a postage stamp and be entirely muddled. If the logo is designed to look great online, depending on the graphics format, it might not scale easily up to a printable version, so it is best to create it in a way that can be downscaled.

When choosing a color for your logo, you might want to consider using those in the universal 216 color palette supported by all web browsers. This will ensure that the colors of your corporate identity can be used online without a hitch.

On the flip side, the web will allow you to take your simple 1-2 color logo and do great things with it – and it won’t cost you thousands of extra dollars to add colors to it, make it 3D or animate it, like it would in the print medium. Once your logo is created for the lowest common denominator, the same form can be enhanced in a myriad of ways to look more exciting for your web site. Just be sure you don’t get carried away with the possibilities until you have a logo which will present a strong image for your company on a simple business card!

Web Site Design

Other images called clipart, banners, buttons, or graphics, are placed strategically throughout the web pages to enhance the site’s design.

Text: No one likes to read long paragraphs of text. Break up paragraphs and long sentences with lots of bullets. Make the reader’s eye flow down the page instead of across. Also use captions to showcase important information. Text is the writing you see on a web page, or the site’s main copy. Most website owners place their text in or near the middle of the web page on a white background to make it easier to read. When you create your own web page, always use white or a light color such as pale yellow in areas where much reading is required. Use familiar navigation paths and icons. People like to encounter the familiar in web designs.

The major factor when designing a website is usability. A site with good usability means that not only is the site easy to use but it is also comprehensible for the potential customers. This is the bases for any good website designs.

Navigation Menus: A navigation menu is a group of stand-alone links that visitors use to navigate your website. When creating your own website, Make sure that any customer can easily find what they want to buy. Make section names obvious and descriptive. By using these guidelines of website design you are sure to have an effective, efficient, and profitable site.
