After going through a number of potential web designs I have found really prefer Tim Potter’s design the most. \u00a0I found Pottter’s website through the sight “Design Bombs” (URL listed as\u00a0http:\/\/www.designbombs.com<\/a>) and I was immediately drawn to the simplicity of the site and how user friendly it is. \u00a0Navigation through this site is pretty straight forward with a navigation bar at the top that suggests links ranging from “What I do” to “My Work”. \u00a0Not only that, but the Splash page itself is interactive and aesthetically appealing as there are videos and images. \u00a0That being said, TIm still maintains the simplicity of the his site and doesn’t clutter the Home page with unnecessary media. \u00a0The Splash page is actually one long web page, however by clicking on the links at the top of the site, you automatically scroll to the correct place on the Splash page itself that holds the information requested.<\/p>\n

In order to make navigation of the page even easier, Tim has included a “Top” button that floats on the left side of the screen and stays with you as you scroll down or up. \u00a0That way, anytime you need to return to the navigation bar at the top you have an easily accessible means of getting there. \u00a0Great Feature.<\/p>\n

I really like this idea of making the website one whole page. \u00a0However, with the amount of writing that is going to be on my site I will need to include at least a couple of alternate pages that can be accessed from the splash page through links. \u00a0That being said, I’m thinking of trying to go Tim’s route and fit as much as I can on the Splash page, without cluttering it up, and have a “Top” button to access it all coupled with a navigation bar at the top. It’s a great design.<\/p>\n
