#1 http:// www.travelchinauide.com
#2 http:// www.chinasite.com

I like website #1 better than website #2 because the page of the website is bright color. Therefore, the viewer can read easier and feel enjoyable. the color in the website is a mix of blue, white, and yellow. So I feel relaxed and comfortable. Also, blue is my favorite color. However, the website has a lot of pictures about people or famous places in China. Moreover, you can find any information about China.


The color in page of website is very important. So I don't think we can read the website without color. The color in the website is like salt in the food. However, I almost agree with the article, but I disagree with Black and dark blue. In my opinion Black makes me gloomy and feel tired, but I don't think it means power. Also, I don't think dark blue means government or is not good for the young and lively. In my opinion dark blue is nice and beautiful future.

Montreal's website

I like the first website because I suppose that brown has an adult, stable, and calm image. And, the color isn't dark, but also light so it's easier to read sentences. As you know, Montreal is a French-speaking city, so we can enjoy French culture. In there, there are many theatres, art museums, the center of architecture, casinos, jazz bars, and clubs.

I think this color design is cultivated, newly high quality, enjoyable, devoloped city image.

I like the first website because the color of the background on the website is the grayed greened brown, which present brown is earthy, outdoors and warm, but considered dirty and dull, and gray is modern, intelligent, solid, clean, but also boring, dull, sad, and old, and green is nature, environment, youth, spring but also envy, could be trouble for color-blind. I suppose that the principals combined with the urban city's good and bad point. Some part of town has cleaness and brightness, but the other has darkness and dirtiness. And, as you know, Montreal is a French Speaking city, so we can enjoy French culture, fully. In there, there are many theatres, art museums,t he center of the architecture, casinos, jazz bars, clubs. It may match with the image of the city, fashionable, an adult, stable, calm image, and designs cultivated, newly high quality,enjoyable, development, European city. Moreover, the CONTRAST of the color is good because the character's color is black and the background's color is the grayed greened brown. So, it can be said that it has a strong contrast. Also, TEXT isn't written in all bold, all italics,or all capitals. It represents the SIMPLICITY and CLEANLINESS. Besides, it has a strong ALIGNMENT which is the left. And, links are on the left, too. Actually, it makes a peaceful.Totally, these techniques makes that to be intelligible and comfortable to watch. It's significiant for us to choose a few or some one in many websites.
