Findings from our Usability Testing • Original Website • Paper Prototype
Original Website • Existing navigation was confusing at times • Did not know where to go next • The navigational button seemed to be… • over-dominant • Distracted users from the main focus of the site • Had a Random Color Scheme • (e.g. felt the site resembled a rainbow)
Findings from our Usability Testing • Original Website • Paper Prototype
Paper Prototype • Existing navigation was confusing at times • Did not know where to go next • From paper prototype users saw that to many different columns confused • They did not know where to look next • Seemed to crunch in content
The Re-designed Website • A redesigned Vertical Navigation instead of the old Horizontal one. • Categorized and more Simplified Image Galleries • Current Navigation was found to be less confusing • According to past user tests
Usability Issues • We used CSS to create and make contrasting colors to separate the sub galleries from the normal main and most common links
