Roles and responsibilities

25th August, 2008- I began a plan for the website. I draw a grid structure that showed all the content pages of the site.
9th September, 2008- I wrote about my initial proposal for the website on my blog.
16th September, 2008- i received comments from my lecturer in class and my blog asking for more information in the proposal, which iI worked on that night.
19th September, 2008- i began to do the actual website, i.e working on the index page.
30th October, 2008- I had a few questions for the lecturer about the site which he helped me with.
20th October, 2008- created the four main pages so far, but having to create the sub-pages. I had to ask Dr. Ken for assistance tomorrow. But otherwise, I am almost done.
21st October, 2008- Dr. Ken helped me solve my problem and I finished up my website that same night.
I should be able to hand in soon.

Softwares used

To design this site, I used Adobe Photoshop, Flash, and Dreamweaver. Adobe Dreamweaver assisted in designing the layout of all the pages while Adobe Flash helped me design the Introduction page (splash screen). Its supposed to be for 20 seconds and one can skip it and go straight to the home page.
With this page, i picked the elephants, the Ugandan flag and company name, hence when one clicks the site, it shows a sign of tourism (wildlife) and which country precisely.

WEBSITE DESIGN

The homepage talks about Uganda, the people and the cultures. Few pictures are added in to brighten the page and illustrate.

the slogan (experience the beauty of uganda with us), bascially tells the viewers of the website that the company has a passion for adventure and not just to make money.
For the colours, I had intended to use colours of the uganda flag i.e red, yellow and black, but since my page is white, yellow would not be noticed, so instead of yellow, I picked green (it presents uganda's vegetation).
