What does your project do so far and what can you improve on?

  • Home page which takes you via hyperlink to Pounds and Euros and Euros to pounds.
  • Converts pounds to Euros.
  • Conerts Euros to pounds.
  • Creates a pounds to Euros reciept which you can access via hyperlink.
  • To improve I could finish the project completely including a Euro to pounds reciept.
  • Add scroll bars.

How efficiently have you managed the calender plan?

  • I'm on track with my project.

How have you made it user friendly?

  • Hyperlink on every page so that when the logo is clicked you instantly go straight back to the homepage.
  • My font is clear and easy to read.
  • Once the amount you want to convert is inserted the amount you will recieve (without commision) comes up automatically.
  • 'Go' button on both pounds to Euros page and Euros the pounds page which take you to the reciept page.
  • Buttons are large and clear.
  • Consistant colour theme to avoid confusion.

What is user friendliness?

User friendliness is when extra procautions are taken to help a user to use something easier for example scroll bars, drop downs. Extra buttons to help someone navigate etc.

Logo design

  • How well did your recreate logo go?

I think it went fairly well, it would have been useful to be able to smudge the mixing colours of the background together to make it look more similar but I couldn't find a tool suitable.

What makes a good logo?

  • Simple.
  • Logical.
  • Legible.
  • Colourful.
  • If plain make it look modern.

How have you made your travel logo look professional.

I have made the background unique in removing the edge and using a soft blur on the remover to make the edges less sharp.

How could I improve my logo making skills?
