Decisions on tutorial page design

  1. Top panel: on left: - VL logo, horizontal,
  2. on right: Using the Virtual Library, large font.
  3. Next line Unit 1: Getting Started on right; Home, Previous Unit, Next Unit, Help

     

2. Left Hand Column: dark blue with white font. Change Unit 5 to "Citing & Copyright"

3. Directional buttons: arrows with "previous" and "next" written on them, to go to adjacent pages.

4. Footer: on right - E-mail Help Desk.

5. Subsequent pages within each unit: smaller version of logo on left.

There should be no visible attribution, but Dirk demonstrated a code for including the page creators and date which will not be visible to the user. He advised using this as a reference point for later updating, e.g.<|--dirkgriffin--|>

Graphics for the dynamic pages:

Send printouts of relevant pages with requests for graphic design to (email) [email protected]

Patrick will format all of the pages by the end of the day.

Glossary: each unit to produce its own, using the Notes feature. Dirk will assist LuAnn in compiling the master glossary. For help with this and other problems, send e-mail to: [email protected]
