The previous site, while widely used by students and others seeking information about the lab, did not have a cohesive design or a clear hierarchy of information to guide the user through the site. It was structurally disorganized, and tutorials for vital applications like Photoshop had not been updated. These subwebs make navigation more intuitive and facilitate organized maintenance of the site. Info displays general information about the lab, its history, staff, technical capabilities, and a detailed schedule of classes.
Access provides an on-line access request form and directions to the lab.
Use contains a detailed Users' Guide, as well as tutorials on the various applications running in the lab. The tutorials have been updated and will be periodically revised to keep them current with new software. We've made them easier to use by dividing dense blocks of text into smaller pieces and providing clearer and more plentiful screen shots and diagrams. We hope that experienced users will help improve the website by contributing ideas and tips for the tutorial pages. Both new and experienced users will find inspiring work to look at and can explore the possibilities of careers in multimedia.
