Epic Gamer Blogs

Sharing information is what the web is all about these days. Whether it is via social networking sites, or a blog like this, ultimately the world’s internet users are online seeking/posting information. That’s why it is essential that the layout of blogs and sites be user friendly. In considering the layout for our blogs by the 3picr3vi3ws team, we needed to sit down and discuss the possible options about the layout. We knew our theme was gaming so we needed to base the layout to suit the gaming scene. As a group we tried many different layouts and agreed on the ones we liked and then chose the final one. Our choice was justified because of the readability and the simple layout which almost anyone using the internet would be able to read. Once the layout was decided, the rest was easy, all we had to decide was backgrounds, colour usage, texts and then we could judge the final blog layout.

It seemed simple; however things always change, as do opinions. After online consultation with the group we decided a few layout changes were in order. Firstly we decided that a black background (and conveniently the default background) with white text would suit our theme nicely so we went with that. Text was kept as default.

Blogger.com basically helped with everything. No html code was needed and it just made the whole blogging simple and efficient, there were no worries in that department which allowed us to focus on the quality of our blogs.
