Artist's Comments

Inspired by :iconthevegasiantiger:, I decided to do a mock-up of the Lupinia Studios Web Hosting site before doing a final design. Keep in mind that this was made in Photoshop, so the final site won't look quite like this (particularly the font sizes, though they'll be close), and other than the links and the header image, all of the text was directly copied and pasted from the main Lupinia site.

This is the first site I've in a long time that wasn't the main Lupinia site, so I welcome any and all critiques, please. Thanks!

Hey Felix. Mine was the actual site. Not photoshop. I feel soooo appreciated...and I don't want to disappoint you, but...

(I can't remember which one I used for the ones I posted here)

I used a firefox extension to save the webpage as an image. Figured I could get more people to beta test it without having to upload it (cause I don't want a half working version running on a production sever. Looks bad and unprofessional). Plus, I could post each page as it is developed.


As for the page here, the contrast with the text and background is too low.

The reason I made this in Photoshop is because I didn't want to put the hours of effort into a web-based layout before I made a real decision as to how I wanted this to look. This took about 20 minutes to make.

And I have an "extension" to save a page as an image too, it's called Alt+Print Screen :-P

What do you mean about the contrast? It's the exact same colour scheme as the main Lupinia site, though the JPEG compression made the smaller text a tiny bit fuzzy. The main text has a contrast ratio of 17.76 (Passes W3C AAA accessibility guidelines), and the menu bar has a contrast ratio of 6.64 (Passes W3C AA accessibility guidelines). And, like the Lupinia main site, there will be alternate stylesheets available for accessibility if it's really a concern.

Must be my horrible laptop screen when I viewed this. You get what you pay for.
