Today I updated a page on my website called A Guide to Accessible Web Design. At the start, this page was a MESS. The blocks of bright colors matched with brightly colored texts killed the graphic designer in me just a little bit. The first thing I did to fix this page was change the text color and get rid of the backgrounds because they looked funny in my opinion. The next thing I did was change the links to read easier, with descriptive texts. I also made sure that all the headers and body text were the correct size (16px), H2 Headers and H3 subheadings. I also added spaces between the body text, image, and subheadings so that it was easier to read and the text wasn’t too bunched up. Finally, I added alt text to the image on the page.
Additionally, I fixed all of the images on my main site so that they all now have alt text (I also deleted the many extra images I had in my media library (because they did NOT need to be there lol).
