Web
site navigation -
Web site buttons,
button bars,
icons and image
maps are web
graphics that
are essential
to a dynamic
website design.
They are generally
saved as .gif
file types.
Feature
graphics -
Also known as
'teasers', these
web graphics
call attention
to key products,
services or
other messages
on your website.
They are meant
to 'jump out'
and attract
'eyballs' to
see and perhaps
click them.
Feature graphics,
if used properly,
can direct traffic
exactly where
it is required.
Feature graphics
are generally
saved as .gif
file types.
Illustrations -
Drawings and graphs
can be used tastefully
to add depth to
a web site. Some
concepts and information
can best be depicted
on a visual basis.
Illustration can
also be used as
a design motif
in general. A
cartoon character
could be used
to help 'brand'
the web site,
and a web site
with hand drawn,
illustrated quality
can greatly help
separate it from
the vast majority
of web sites that
have a stiffer,
computer graphic
approach. Illustrations
are generally
saved as a .gif
file type.

Professional
photographs
can make a subtle
difference in
presentation.
DevWebDesign has
arrangements
with top
photo
stock foundries
to provide
our clients
with the
best
in contemporary
photo stock.
Digital
cameras are
prevalent,
however,
and
may be used
for product
and other
types of
photography.
Photos are
generally
saved as
a .jpg file
type.
DevWebDesign works
with top area
photographers.
A custom photo
shoot may be
arranged for
your web site
project with
one of these
photographers
by contacting
your DevWebDesign Web
Site Consultant.
Animation
Graphics -
Web graphics
that move, jump
and otherwise
call attention
to themselves
are animated
graphics. Most
animated web
graphics are
either animated
.gifs or FLASH
animations.
Used tastefully,
animated graphics
are the eye
candy that can
make your visitors
'eat out of
your hand'
