If there\u2019s one website I can\u2019t stop looking at, it\u2019s the SaveTheDayGala.com website for the Red Cross fundraiser in Jackson, Mississippi this month.\u00a0 What I love about it isn\u2019t just the graphics (which I can\u2019t take much credit for anyways since most were given to me), but the simplicity of the design process<\/strong>!<\/p>\n I built this website using the new method of web design which favors beautiful code over beautiful layout.\u00a0 In this process, a designer organizes and codes the content into the HTML page before<\/strong> creating the overall look of the layout, which is the exact opposite of most design projects that generally begin on the art table!<\/p>\n [quote]\u201cGreat feedback on the website!\u2026You are the best!!!!\u201d \u2013 Tamica Smith-Jeuitt[\/quote]The reason I love this process so much is because it keeps me focused on what\u2019s most important \u2013 the content! It also saves my client $$$.\u00a0 Just imagine the time wasted when I draw a pretty design, slice it up and code it out only to realize the actual <\/strong>homepage text (not my dummy text) overextends the layout. Adjusted the design could take hours! The old method is like making a dress without any measurements. Ironically, when using the content-first technique, the layout has no choice but to be beautiful because it fits perfectly!!<\/p>\n The result is a well-tailored, easy-to-use, validated website that was made almost effortlessly yet functions like magic.\u00a0 And if that doesn\u2019t give Red Cross a reason to go gaga for their gala website, it surely gives me one!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If there\u2019s one website I can\u2019t stop looking at, it\u2019s the SaveTheDayGala.com website for the Red Cross fundraiser in Jackson, Mississippi this month.\u00a0 What I love about it isn\u2019t just the graphics (which I can\u2019t take much credit for anyways since most were given to me), but the simplicity of the design process!
