Font and Colour Consistency

in Website Advice
23 Apr 2009  | 0 Comments
 
Consistency of fonts and colours is very important in web design. When you shift away from consistency on a given website, web users are geared to think that you are trying to express something different or significant through the change.

It is therefore important to be selective when considering departure from your style. When our Design Team creates your website they will set a font & colour scheme throughout your website. It is therefore strongly advised that you stick with this scheme when possible. An easy way to do this is to retain the default font and colour settings in the look & feel section of your Mission Control and then retain the default font and colour settings when you edit an individual page.

This will ensure that when you intentionally depart from your core style it will be far more effective.
