Brief: to assist one of Mission Hall's designers in the completion of this website, which was his first web design project.
My responsibilities included:
- Completion of site build (architecture, navigation, HTML, JavaScript, content layout, frames)
- De-bugging pages already created
- Development and colour-matching of graphics to maintain consistency across the site and to look good on monitors displaying 256 colours
- Testing site thoroughly for browser compatibility on Mac and PC, and including a range of monitors sizes and resolutions
- Liaison with client throughout the design process.
I was initially called in to fix a wayward .gif, but ended up spending a couple of days on this website, fixing bugs and developing the navigation system - as well as teaching the designer some of the secrets of web design using Dreamweaver.
