I would love to send this link to my former boss. My old company had been acquired by a Japanese company. As Communications Manager, I was responsible for updating our literature, stationery and web site. Our headquarters in Japan sent me a style manual to follow when putting everything together. My boss understood making business cards, stationery and literature consistent, but did not think the rules applied to our web site. Our corporate colors were red, black and white. He wanted me to incorporate all these funky colors that were completely inconsistent with the image of our new company. I eventually won the battle, but it truly was a fight!
I had a hard time deciding what to do for my project as the sites I manage at work already exist. So I decided to use my reunion from CHC as my project. Reunion Weekend is held every year and graduates celebrating a milestone reunion are invited to attend. My class is celebrating our 5-year reunion this May. The college plans a number of activities for everyone and then the class officers are responsible for organizing events just for their class. I thought this would also allow me to save money on sending my classmates information in the mail.
Ideally, I would like to link my site from the college’s site. (I called the webmaster last week, but have not heard back from her yet.) If I can do this, I will follow some of the design features of the college’s site such as red navigation bars and the college’s logo. I hate the logo watermarks, so they will definitely not be used on my site. We also have a theme for our class, so I will use that as the basis for my site, while making it consistent with the college’s site.
