Chapter 6 & pp 186-192: Chapter 6 helps me look at web pages differently. I can see when web pages are too busy or unattractive, but now I understand why. The alignment of the information on the page, the CRAP (as we discussed in class) that makes a page good or bad. Web pages can have a lot of information on them without being distracting. Having clean clear visual effects was discussed a lot, and I understand why. I can relate to getting on websites and when they were to busy or difficult to read.....click off I went to another site. Designing for web printing seems to be a little stricter with what you have to work with. You have smaller space to include the most important information you want to convey. Newspapers, pamplets, business cards are good examples of print design.

Graphic Definitions.......this section was defining the differences between file formats. Using JPEG or GIF, different files as bitmapped or raster and when to use them. For me this is definetly something I will need to read again.
