Feature 1: Designing Banners and Blog Widgets

- From Basic to Advanced: The Techniques Within Those Little Windows -

Design for banners and blog widgets differs from normal web design because there’s limited space to attract the user’s attention as well as size restrictions and compatibility is-sues with external sites and various blogging platforms. While we have many opportunities to create these elements, there’s surprisingly little information about them. This fea-ture will introduce a wide range of patterns for banners and production techniques for blog widgets.
