Planning, Planning, Planning

Hooray!!! I finished the Website Evaluation Report last night, but I am too nervous to submit. I never really trust the electronic delivery. I think I will do some blogging and posting and then send away.

I have been playing with ColorBlender (please see my previous post for more details) and have created a color combination featuring greens with light purples that looks nice, almost soothing. I wrote down the combination numbers, but think I will play some more. I am not sure purple would be appropriate. I would like to incorporate brown so I end up with dark greens, browns, and whites, somewhat playing on the idea of trees and sidewalks.

Here is a bit of information about my neighborhood that I found on our town's civic association website.

I am also making notes to organize thoughts about possible pages:
  1. Homepage: Greater Gladstone Civic Association or Gladstone Manor
  2. News (meetings; minutes)
  3. Events (recent; upcoming)
  4. History (history of the neighborhood; items of interest from the past)
  5. Out and About (photoss; meet your neighbors)
  6. Links (Lansdowne Borough resources; fun things to do in the neighborhood)
  7. About (purpose of site; blurb about site creator)

This will be fun, but a lot of work. I never realized how much planning was involved. I suppose the more planning, the smoother the final site will come together and work.
