City Life Homepage |
1. No excessive amount of text on the background image. This is there in order to support the adverts rather than replace them. 2. Try to keep important info and any text as close to the edges of the main site body as possible but make sure the overall design accommodates for the larger screen sizes. Most users will only see 150px either side. 3. Ensure the background image fades to a solid white at the bottom. 4. Make allowances for all page furniture especially the navigation as this cannot be compromised. 5. No animations except inside banners, 6. We reserve the right to amend any artwork before publication. |
