Good and Bad Web Design

Good sites are simple, with small pages, and easy-on-the-eye colors.
Examples:

General Do's and Don'ts

Try to make the pages fit in 800x600 pixel screen.
Don't use Dreamweaver unless you are a certified expert in it's use.
Don't use fancy effects that someone else has shown you unless you know how to fix them when they break.
If you get the message "This page contains both secure and nonsecure items" you have probably done something wrong. Most likely your web site is secure and you are referencing a photo on a non-secure site.
Don't link to other websites if they have pop-ups.
Don't use mouse following effects. The world has already seen them all, they are no longer a novelty, they are annoying, and they offer absolutely nothing to the substance of the web page.

Specific Do's and Don'ts

Don't use Interactive buttons. they are clichéd and they don't behave well when scrolling.

Don't put two styles of navigation on the same page

Stay away from gaudy colors.

Don't reference images that are located on another site.
Example: https://project1.caryacademy.org/IBP/2004/IBP14
Don't use marquees. They are distracting and annoying.
Example: https://project1.caryacademy.org/IBP/2004/IBP11
Don't make users click to enter the site
Example: https://project1.caryacademy.org/IBP/2004/IBP89
Don't use roll-over effects that enlarge text, it causes formatting problems
Example: https://project1.caryacademy.org/IBP/2004/IBP26
