There are lots of free graphics available that work well for web pages. If you're creating more than one page, your pages need to have consistent design and a consistent manner of navigation. Visitors should always know where they are and how to get where they want to go. It's a good idea to offer a site index, which can be a simple page with links in alphabetical order to the most vital pages on your site. You could also use a JavaScript selection box .
Planning Turn off the computer and use pencil and paper to experiment with trial layouts.
This is particularly helpful if you're planning a site with more than just a few pages. Other Considerations Don't assume your visitors will have the same screen resolution as you, the same number of colors, or even the same web browser. This includes blinking text, borders on tables, centering, and frames. Remember to consider issues of accessibility for your site. Visit the W3 Consortium's Web Accessibility Initiative site for detailed information on making your site accessible.
