Inspired by , 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!
(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.
Some people have been asking me about this stuff so I decided to gather all information in one single article on how to make your own portfolio, in a profesional and clean looking way. I hope it's useful, because these steps I myself take.
DeviantArt is full of extremely well produced artistic fashion and fine art photographs. Make up. Styling. Creation of scenery. Story. Light. Glamour. A combination of these expressions sometimes make up a great photograph. But the protagonists of these pictures are usually female.
So... now it's the time for male models to come into focus.
How to make DA work for YOU! Taking an in-depth look at how to make deviantART work for you, and getting the most out of your user experience. How to get comments, watches, your work scene, commented on, critiqued, and what you have to do. These are some of the things which I have learned since joining more than 4 1/2 years ago.
`karemelancholia is one of the most genuine deviants you could ever met. Always active and a true deviantART cheerleader and supporter in every aspect. You can always count on her to lend a hand or get involved, and you usually will find her doing large amounts of both at any given moment. She's consistently reports on contests around dA, showcases the efforts of her fellow artists and shows her charitable side through various activities. Besides all of this, she's a truly talented artist which is why she's an obvious choice for deviousness this month. Read More
