So, to inspire myself to update this site, I change the layout into BAP. This is from our current layout freebies at dorkistic.net alongside Big Bang, Exo M and Kara members. I totally digging B.A.P's Crash because it's my kind of song XD Last month, I received a paid request, where I have to do a layout for a group of students for their course study. It was a challenging task because I have to follow the description that their lecturer has given them. The task doesn't stop there when I finish the layout. I have to explain to them and do writeup on how did I make the layout, the coding, as well as explaining to them almost every elements of the HTML and design. I hope they will get good marks during their presentation. Doing such request made me realise that it's not only doing the request is difficult, but also requesting.

To request, we need to know what we actually want, and how to explain them to the designer. We also need to know the basics such as white font will NEVER look good on yellow background, and that Comic Sans is the biggest turn-down for a professional looking website. Apart from that, when requesting, it is useful if you can outline your website on paper (or MSPaint) especially when you wanted a complicated layout. The outline can help the designer to picture what you really want on the website. Sometimes, the design looks good in OUR head, but after realising it on the design, you might need to alter it to suit your site and such. See, who says requesting is easy? It's never an easy task and you can even be blacklisted from the site if you are not requesting properly XD

What am I blabbing about?? Guess I gotta stop now and update my other sites ^^
