Jefferson gave me feeback in class today (thank you Jefferson). This is the gist of what he said:
-
Remember the mobile layout! I think my wireframe was a little wide, making it look like I have more space than I actually do. Moving forward, I'll make sure to limit my page width to simulate the actual device the recipe will be used on.
-
Increase font size. I guess this is where designing for the printed page came in and tripped me up, because I set my body text as 14pt and though it was way too large. Not. The. Case. Jefferson recommended that I increase it even more, maybe to 17pt for the body. This means I'm going to have to adjust the rest of my text as well.
-
More hierarchy in the list of steps. Yet another good peice of feedback from Jefferson! He suggested that I bold or color the most important part of the recipe steps.
-
An ending. This recipe should probably have a definitive ending. A congratulations, perhaps, or at least a final image. I'll write a little something-something
-
More pictures. The big one! All but one of the pictures of this recipe available online look disgusting, but it would be helpful to have images to accompany the instructions. To fix this problem, I will make the recipe and take my own pictures to use for the webpage.
