Website Building - Test

Once I moved onto Wix, I quickly caught back up to my current progress on Weebly...


I next had a fiddle with the navigation bar to make it more noticeable and kid-friendly. Despite editing the text to be larger, it was still quite hard to read, as the links were now too close together. To combat this, I inserted little line shapes and moved them between each link.

At this point I checked the preview to find I had some issues with the background image scrolling with the page, so spent some time rectifying this. I then began work on the other pages. This was also the point where I upload a gif, to test how the animations would work (it worked out really well)...

I also thought it would be important to create a contact page. This was a challenge, as it involved creating a contact form which was impossibly awkward to edit in a way that made it's style cohesive with the rest of the site. I also focused on language and communication style here - how I wanted our audience to read our voices, as creators. Due to the fact our audience is quite young, I made it very conversational and fun!

After this, it was just a case of fiddling with the drop down menu under 'Animations' to make it more user friendly and attractive (which I unfortunately couldn't screenshot, due to the nature of drop downs), and now the site is ready to go live for a test run...

From now, the site will be live at... maxiegeemail.wixsite.com/mawgo
