Creativity

As we know I like to create web-sites. Well for that I say you have to be creative, especially when you design the template. I will talk about the main steps that you have to follow in order to create a good website, and afterwards about the creativity in its design. The steps of making a good web-site are:
- think about your theme
- research it and look over other similar web-sites
- think about a domain name (e.g. www.licitatii-virtuale.ro)
- plan the structure and analyze it
- design the template
- create the html version of the main pages
- now transform the html version (if needed) into a dynamic version (like *.php, *.asp)

Now lets talk about the fun part, about the creativity.

The creative aspect of design is hard; it seems easy but try to open a graphics editor and create a logo, an image, an entire template for a website or for software that you like. Even in creating a simple logo the process of thinking and reflecting about what you want to draw is intense. After you think about an idea and you know what you want to draw, comes the hardest part. You have to put together all the lines, all the colors, all the backgrounds, the font size, the shadow and then the image comes from your mind onto the screen of your computer. This is the most difficult aspect of creation; to know what you have in mind and put in on the 'paper'. I bet everyone has magnificent creative little bugs in their mind and they are imagining them in a perfect way that in reality do not exist, but just a few can express their bugs, their mind into the material plane, onto 'hardware' or 'software'.
Ok, I admit, I went off of the topic a little but I will add some creations made by me.

Here are some logos made by me:
