“If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him.” – John F. Kennedy
What is culture? Is it the holidays we celebrate? Or is it the type of food we eat or the language we speak? Can culture also be about our behaviors, traditions, and values?
Kris Balch, President of VST, reached out to Goldlilys Media to inquire how to make their existing website easier to manage.
"Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works." – Steve Jobs
The way a design looks and feels like is only the first step to understanding a user interface. Everything gets simpler if we go with the flow. The clearer the interface flows, the better the interaction of the users for your website will get.
“A picture is worth a thousand words. An interface is worth a thousand pictures.” - Ben Shneiderman
The main goal of a business website is to attract new customers and to keep them involved in your business. In this busy and complex world, the last thing anyone wants is to have to figure out how to use your complicated website.
Web Design focuses more on the front-end look and feel of a website. The front-end is what your visitors/users will see. It is what makes your website unique and that creativity will help users remember your business and keep them coming back for more.
The focus of web development is the back-end features and functionality of a website. Developers make the vision of the Web Designers come to life. Web developers learned programming languages like PHP, Javascript, or ASP to create logical algorithms to make features and interactions possible.
To save time and money when developing complex sites, frameworks like Drupal and Compass/SASS were invented. Before these frameworks existed, websites that relied heavily on content management, and custom made programming would require clients to have a humongous budget. Why? Because doing everything from scratch to code all of the different features would take hours and hours to implement, test, Q&A, debug and test again. A software program is only as good as the developer/tester who created it. But, if a program is only being tested by a few people, how trustworthy can it be?
