Web Design Process - Part III

The short of it:

Thumbnail of Veritas Home Page: the first draft for the client review

The long of it:

I added in some lipsum text with a blue header for the blogging / page content. Pretty simple and effective. I should include a picture to show how image layout would work but I feel it might be too cluttered for a layout draft. It’s something I can walk through with the client at a later date. I darkened the headers on the right, I felt the bright green was too distracting and hurt my eyes.

I made the navigation centered and justified, added bold and drop shadow, used Gill Sans font, same as the logo. I changed the header background color. I felt the grey was too drab and techie. I wanted to bring more of that blue into the design. I merged “shows” into “events” and got rid of the red header on the right. I made the links to the events that nice dark red color.

This design will now go to my client, Tom Wyatt, for review. I’ll let you know what he says!
