Blogger Makeover

A Better Blog...

Recently in class we took a look at our blogs. We realized that there were several aspects that could be improved, so we started to remake and design our blogs again.

CARP

This is a very essential part of graphic design, so of course I needed to apply it to my blog.

C- This stands for Contrast. In my blog I added contrast by varying fonts, text sizes, and styles. To break up long chunks of text I added headings and subheadings to group things into their needed place.

A- This stands for Alignment. To make things look nice and even, everything needs to be aligned. To improve my blog, I went through and fixed my pictures and text to flow nicely.

R- This stands for Repetition. Repetition is used to establish a pattern and make things look nice and consistent.

P- This stands for Proximity. To use Proximity in my blog, I had to consider the placement of things.

Before And After:

Before I redid my blog, it was ok, but not great. It had a few issues with CARP through it.
Now, after I have remade my blog, it looks so much better. It now displays CARP better than before. I am now more organized, with the Pages and Labels that I added.
