Portfolio Web Design Tips

  • Choose one background and use that for ALL of the main navigation pages in your website.
     

  • Use the page indent feature to allow for white space in the outer part of your table. Note that the bullet feature also creates white space.
     

  • Keep graphic sizes as small as possible.
     

  • Use no more than two font sizes or colors on a page.
     

  • Use horizontal lines to separate important areas.
     

  • Press Shift + Enter to make a single line break.
     

  • Press Shift + Enter after a bulleted item to create space between items.
     

  • Create folders for each important area within your web.
     

  • Always put photos in the images folder and clipart into the graphics folder.
     

  • Use server-side includes to make fast changes to all the pages in your web.
