For the purposes of this brief we need to move away from the Social side of the internet.... Or do we....
The aim of the rehash of the brief is to make the student look at where they can fit on the web... & I think it all comes down to how you would like to be portrayal.. The first question I would ask someone who would like to get themselves a “web presence” is do you have money? If the answer is no then a .com (.co.uk) address is out of the question so hold on to your all singing all dancing website ideas.... with limited knowledge of the internets inner workings putting up cover photo/profile pic or choosing from template is about as much “web designing” as we will get to do.... but don't dismiss it completely.....
These screen shots are from four individuals who use the internet to gain exposure, to communicate and to even sell their work.... two of these artist make real money(& have .com addresses) whilst the other two do not.... it is hard to tell who is who until they get down to content..... The look is forcably uniform, the structure does not change only the content of cover photo & profile picture is different & personal....
There can be a lot more to the simple Facebook profile pic/cover photo combo..
Thanks to the guys and girls at hongkiat.com
