Options as far as I see it…?• 2 or 3 columns on page (my preference is 2 – “Cover”

layout – a focus on what is there not extras)• School colours or not (my preference is not – students

are not corporate identities)• Student involvement or not (my preference is yes – do

we get Art G&T?)• Menu bar or not (my preference is yes – good enough

for Leeds City College)• Icon Map on Front Page or Navigation page (my

preference is Front Page) • Icons why not get GSCE Art students to design them• Front page layout scrolling or not (my preferences are

not – thinking about designs for wide screen)
