Welcome!
At this point you have viewed the Web
Site Design presentation and are ready for the next step.
Introduction
Prior to viewing this tutorial, you should have created an advertisement
intended for print media. During this process you should have saved
a Photoshop document (*.PSD) version of your advertisement. The
Photoshop format is unique in that it is one of a few graphic file
formats that allows the creator to leave their image in multiple
layers. These layers usually consist of a background, text, images
on top of images, etc. Separating these layers into individual image
files will allow us to create an interactive advertisment in the
form of a web page.
Preparation
1. W3 Setup - If you
haven't already done so, be sure to set up your Lehigh webspace.
2. SSH
Secure File Transfer Client - Here you'll find basic instructions
on how to upload your site after creating it.
3. Understanding
The Web - Check this link out for an interactive explanation
of the web.
4. Understanding
Resolution - Images used on the web are not capable of being
displayed at the high resolution available for print media. In fact,
the highest resolution that can be viewed is 72 dots per inch.
5. Copyright - Because you are using copyrighted material
that is not actually affiliated with the companies advertised, you
must include a disclaimer at the bottom of your web site that indicates
that the site is for a class at Lehigh University. If you choose
to use one of our included templates (discussed on the next page),
it has already been included for you.
