Web Accessibility: 6 Reasons Why Its Important

Feb 9th 2010 by Holly Lamarche

Web Accessibility Picture

Web accessibility is the idea of making websites easily accessed by all types of people including those with certain disabilities, different languages, or lack of access to certain technology. The notion is derived from the fact that all people should be given equal opportunity to access websites regardless of their limitations. It is important for you to consider that a certain percentage of your site’s visitors will be in this category. When websites are properly designed, developed and edited, your web accessibility will increase because all people will be able to use, function, and navigate through your site with ease. In my opinion, no matter what stage you are in the website process, every step of the way, you should consider making your website more user-friendly.

Super Bowl XLIV: From a Designer’s Perspective

Feb 5th 2010 by Teylor Feliz

Super Bowl XLIV has been analyzed, dissected, examined, studied, and picked apart from every angle possible to see which team is superior. Though I love sports, I am by no means an expert on the subject, so I decided to examine the two teams from a unique perspective, the Designer’s Perspective. I have always thought that the right colors, style, and logo can give any company that “it factor.” Design can go out of just the graphic and web worlds, and into almost any facet of life. Thus, I decided to look at these two teams, the New Orleans Saints and the Indianapolis Colts, from the Designer’s Perspective, by looking at their official logo, additional logos, team colors, and all in all style. All images and team colors are copyrighted by the NFL. Enjoy! And as always, please feel free to leave your comments, as they are always welcome, and enjoy the game!

Be Creative to Help Haiti: What Will You Do?

Jan 31st 2010 by Holly Lamarche

More than two weeks after a 7.0-magnitude earthquake rocked the impoverished Haiti, destroying buildings and killing hundreds of thousands of people living in the small country, to this date people are still wondering what they can do to make a difference. This disaster touches me on a personal level, because Haiti shares the island of Hispanola with my home country of Dominican Republic. Growing up less than 250 miles from the capital of Haiti has made me want to help my Haitian neighbors in the most meaningful and appropriate ways, but I find myself limited by my own financial abilities. Even though more than two weeks has passed since this catastrophe, people are continuing to die of disease, starvation, and lack of health care. Moreover, volunteers are being limited by lack of supplies and funding.
