- 12. Design Elements: Intro WORDPRESS The technical platform we use to build your website is called ‘Wordpress’. It affords you a huge range of designs , called “themes” in Wordpress so that you have many variations of style and design to choose from. This way, you’ll avoid custom design prices that add $5000-$10,000 on average, for a website. Wordpress also saves you programming cost because many elements of your site are ‘built in’.
- 13. Design Elements: Intro THEMES Wordpress uses design ‘templates’ called ‘themes’. You have over 1,000 themes to choose from so you can find a design ‘theme’ that works for you.
- 15. Design Elements: Themes THEMES: A ‘theme’ is comprised of the header plus navigation, page layout, sidebars and widgets. Don’t like the 1,000 designs? We’ll just drop in your own image! The images and colors can be changed on almost all of them.
- 16. Design Elements: Page Layout The page layout consists of the header, background (in some themes, not all), navigation, sidebar, body text & images. You can change color, images and layouts in many of these ‘themes’ without customization. Navigation Menu header background Body text Body image Sidebar
- 17. Design Elements: Headers A Header is the top banner or heading in a ‘theme’. In this example it shows the website’s name over a black and green gradient background. This is the Header
- 18. Header Image: You can choose any image to use inside this header on many themes. (note: you must have permission to use the photos & they must fit our tech specs). Or you can choose sections of this header to fill the entire background of the header space. Header Design Elements: Headers
