Even if you arent much of a web-designer, but have some background.... honestly, how long would this take you, how much would a "project" like this cost and what would you rate the "quality" and "expertise", from 1-10? 1 being GREAT, and 10 being CRAPPY

Background Info:
The guy had the Davis High School logo, and the "D"'s that you see on the two sides, and the information.

Also, please notice the difference change from home.htm, index.htm, multimedia2.htm.

I will tell the story behind it all after I get some feedback on it. (BTW, i didn't design this, or hire it out.......... SOMEBODY ELSE DID!! )

Fairly nice design... I don't think it would take long at all, if you knew what you were doing. Nothing too complicated there. Just a few tables. Well done though, except the left and right sides are the same... redundant. Plus, I'd have put Multimedia I ahead of II. I like sequential things in order :)

I'll give:

Aesthetic - 4/10
Layout - 1/10

The use of frames really take the layout score down.

1 is the best? That's weird. Usually when rating on a scale of 1 to 10, 10 is usally the best and 1 is the worst.

Wow it took me a while to realize that I was looking at an actual webpage, not just a screenshot of a webpage. Why in the world is there so much white space?

Depending on how much time is spent each day working on the page, I would venture to guess that the average time to make a webpage like that is around 2 weeks. I have no idea what something like that would cost.

I personally prefer simpler designs. Thus I don't like that design very much. My opinion can be summed up in one sentence: cut off the entire top half of the webpage and get rid of the white space all around.

So on a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the best, I'll give it a 6.5. Aesthetically it's not my cup of tea, and functionally it's less than ideal. But I've seen a lot worse.

Shouldn't take more than 10 hours of time to make this..
I like the look and the layout, white space on web pages is actually a good thing. The functionality is straightforward he only made a few html pages, but with a number of links from what I can tell.

Too much wasted vertical space, banner/graphics are taking up a ridiculous amount of space. I'm viewing @ 1280x1024 and I still have to scroll, and this is for a page that has minimal amount of content.

If I turned it a "project" like this, I'd probably get fired. Forget about paying, I rate "quality" and "expertise" as CRAPPY, so I guess a 10 on your backwards scale.

the real kicker is the title of the page being "home.gif"

not bad for HS'lers actually... but I guess it just means I'm getting old and kids these days grow up with technology a lot faster... I'd say a 4.

Visual = 20/30
Functional = 10/30
Usable = 5/40


Total Score = 35/100 = F

that's how grades go on all my projects at school. Except usually not with the "F"'s

So if you wanted a 10 point scale, you could say 3.5 out of 10.


BTW, The graphics could be made in about an hour or less, the coding could be done in about 3. 4 hours of work, since the info was provided. As far as how much would I pay for that? I would one dollar, and that would because I would put as much time into fixing it into something usable as the person put into an initial design...

There was probably a bit less work involved because the person used dreamweaver, while I code by hand.

I would bet that someone stupidly paid $150 for this website.


In complete honesty, I would say that the previous website (Here) Is better.

It's about average. Not the best, pretty klunky, has potential though.

I'm pretty certain they charge at least 2 grand. maybe as much as five.

The real monwy maker is for lawfirms, doctors and the like. Anybody who still views web-design as "magic" will pay you a fortune for crap.

There is too much crap at the top of the main page... I have to scroll down a little to see info each time I click a link.
