Construction Steps

Inspirations – These websites on the WIX website inspired me the most due to the creativity and layout. After searching through the templates, I chose ‘Performing Artist’ because of the fonts and the colours used which made it appealing.

Website Editing

Enter Page

When I created the Enter Page, I chose a blank layout because it would contain the least content. Throughout, the process of doing the enter page, I did need to refer to the Help Center becuase I was unsure of a number of things such as how the enter button operates. But after looking at the tutorials, I got how to do it.

This was the template I used for my website. To begin with, I changed the names of the pages that were shown as well as added pages. Whilst doing this, I discovered the settings option which allowed me to either hide the page from the menu, give the page a title etc. After, I saved my worked and named my site ‘BigQuanOfficial’.

For the Home Page, I began changing the style of the box which was fairly easy to do.

On two of the pages, I set it so that it weren’t shown on the menu bar. These pages were the Lyrics and Enter Page.

I created a ‘Text Button’ and changed what it would say in the Button settings. I

also made the style of the button to a Text

Button. In the ‘Advanced Style’, I had the choice to change the colour of the text

and font. In the Button Settings, I made the button Link to the

Home page which was very easyto do. Below is a screen shot, of My

Final Button on my website.

Due to the colour of the background, I changed the colour of my text to white (shown above).

One of my first designs was to have a number of pictures of Big Quan however, I wasn’t sure if that idea would look good so I decided to make a ‘duplicate page’.

On the original enter page, I created another design which consisted of three pictures of him.

In the Image Gallery, I uploaded the picture I would use for the ‘Enter page’ which I edited on My Computer.

Below, is a screen shot of what the Enter page looks like.

Later on in the process of the website, I discovered that I needed to place the pictures on the enter page in the middle section rather than the header.

Home Page

For the home page, I created a button menu which I placed in the

header so that it could be shown on every page of the website. When I

discovered the header section, I was pleased because I realised that everything in that section would be

on every page and so I had the chance to change the positions of my pictures on the Enter Page. I

also changed the background colour to white to make it easier to

navigate through the website.

On the home page, I added pictures in the style of a slideshow. I also added text which would be current news on Big Quan. On the right hand side, I removed the stuff that was originally there and replaced it with black blocks so that I knew where my icons would go.

About Page

For the About Page, I simply re-wrote what would go in this section as bullet points and changed the font. This was so that I had a rough idea on how the page would look as a whole.

News Page

For the News Page, I added a ______________ which would be the position of the advertising section. I also added text in the style of the Home Page but added more in depth information for each post.

Music Page

For the Music Page, I added titles such as ‘All Albums and Songs’, ‘Music’ and ‘Exclusive Songs’ in order to let me know where everything would go. I next, added images and positioned them on my page. These initially would be the album and single covers. At the bottom of my page, I added a section for Exclusive Songs which would appear in a list. My last feature to this page, was adding pictures in the style of a slider.Con
