Web-Design Work 2
Some Questions & Answers
1) What is Browser-Safe Color Palette / Web-Safe Colors?
Ans: Browser-Safe Color Palette is a set of colors that is use in the web-site. So if designer uses some other colors which is not in the palette itself the computer will automatically adjust it to the nearer color in the color palette. There are 256 Color Palette and 216 Color Palette.
2) Is it still relevant in today’s context? Why?
Ans: Yes and No. It have to see who is using it and your target audience. Most people they are using more advance monitor and so they do not need the web-safe colors because they can support more colors nowadays. But there is still some people which is using the older version of monitors so for that you may want to use the web-safe colors. For my own opinion i guess i will still use the web-safe colors because it helps to reduce the size and loading time and is more friendly using.
3) What are the common fonts face found on PC & Mac?
Ans: Arial, Verdana, Times New Roman and Garamond
4) What is page loading time and how it influence your design?
Ans: Page Loading time is a page that will show the progress of the web-page and time it takes for you to wait before the page actually show. I think while waiting we have to create some things to entertain the user if not i believe the user will leave the page. Because user do not have the patience to wait. User is just like ourself, if we do not have the patience to wait it means other people will not wait as well. So for me i will use some video clips or some mini clips games to entertain the user while waiting.
