Home

here is my preliminary finished home page, unless i change my mind again in the next couple of days!

Heading
i have used a heading with a bit of colour, not in the text but in the background. as i think this makes the text 'pop' better. using a black text over colour helps stand out unless the picture is dark plus it ties on with text and other elements of my page. thin black stroke to help separate from others, same style to my photos on every page.

Navigation
i have gone with a simple box same colour as my background as i like how it looks. it's a simple design which came about from many complex designs which i didnt like, in some peoples eyes these stylings may be wrong though i spent ages on my buttons as i couldnt find a type i was happy with until i settled on this one. colour, off black as i want it to stand out against the light grey but not to harsh so not to distract attention.

Content
simple copy and paste type which had to be moved around in CSS a few times until location was alright.

Wrapper
the wrapper is something which i found very easy and yet think it looks really good and is key in any new websites breaking through. naturally i placed it in the center to accommodate to different web browsers.

Image
i have chosen strong images for my site as i wish it to look as new as possible, i wasn't to happy when looking through and finding loads of old pictures. this picture truly glamorizes public transport. once again thin black stroke merely to look better, serves no true purpose.
