ARTWORK CREDITS |
The 3D red and blue numerals for
each step in the tutorial were obtained as a free download from Digitmania.
These digits are named MGX and were designed by Massimiliano Graziani.
The yellow tint for the rollovers was carefully added in Adobe Photoshop
with the Eyedropper, Paint Bucket, and Pencil. |
Text buttons used throughout the
site were created with Cool
Archive's wonderful Button Maker. We chose the shaded rectangle
with Ariel Black font at 18 point, red and blue colors, resized at 70%
with no blur. Rollover text buttons used identical settings with
the colors reversed. |
Heading Text Blocks were created
online through several freebie sites. For example, we made the masthead
"Credits and Sources" above with Acme
Label Maker using the Romaneste font, the shadow option, and the smooth
filter. WebGFX Log-O-Mat
generates logos with nice fonts. |
Animated Icons on the Step Two
pages and elsewhere are from Xoom,
a free host site.
Custom Animated Banners were made
through the fun interface at Animation
Online.
Arrows and Stars
on the "Narrow Focus" page are from Angel's
Web Graphics |

The CyberBouquet on step eight
of the tutorial is courtesy of Pat's
Graphics, an excellent resource for any webmistress.

SCRIPTING CREDITS |
Infinite
Fish's RollOver MegaCoder generated the navigational
rollovers for our tutorial. Please note that this automated
interface could not handle images with numbers in their file names. |
The rolling quotations on our Subscribe
page are modifications of cut-and-paste Java Script from Lefteris
Haritou's web site. Beware that our browser crashed several times before
this feature finally became functional. |
One easy option for creating an online feedback
and survey interface is to begin with a free guestbook. Guestbook-4-Free
is our favorite, because of the assessment questions, statistical charts,
and background customization. Advertising is minimal. |
The Flashing-Scrolling Bar on our
"Webbing the Legislature" page is from Dynamic
Drive. |
NAVIGATION LAYOUT OF TUTORIAL BUTTONS |
|
|
|
The red frame for our tutorial was created in Netscape Composer.
The outer table consists of two rows and two columns, with borders, cell
padding, and cell spacing all set to zero. Secondary tables were inserted
into the cells to form containers for the rollover buttons and layout space
for the text. Measurements were set in pixels to ensure uniformity. |
