Planning the Web Site

The last few weeks have involved a number of discussions about the appearance and design of the web site "Where the Wilson Meets the James." The site will have pages for different archeaological sites associated with different cultural groups, occupations, or events. In addition, we want thumbnails of associated artifacts and documents to enlarge with additional information. It took a while for me to understand how a web page is designed to change and connect. Once I understood I began looking at different web sites for ideas. I found the Nelson- Atkins Art Museum site very appealing ( http://www.nelson-atkins.org/welcome/FAQ.cfm) . With that in mind I have started the process of design with the Publications Department at Missouri State University.
