 Band Web Site Awards
The required criteria for receiving the award are:
- Home page must be attractive, clean, and easy to navigate
- Important information of interest to students and parents must be easily accessible
- Information must be up to date and relevant
- Sites that are not regularly updated will not be considered
- Total home page size (including images) must be under 200k (remember that not everyone has broadband yet!)
- Use a tool such as the Web Page Analyzer to check the size and usability of your page
- Use a program such as Photoshop or another image editor to minimize image size to save on bandwidth
Additional criteria that may be taken into consideration include:
- Does the Band own its own domain name making it easier to find the site?
- Does the site follow the concepts of:
- Proximity - Similar items (such as items related to a specific ensemble) need to be grouped in the same area of the page.
- Contrast - Seperate portions of the page should have a different feel based on the information they are presenting.
- Alignment - are the text and images aligned in a pleasing way? Aligning everything to the center is almost never a good idea.
- Repetition - does the site follow the same basic template for each page?
