These are all wonderful techniques that help us. But the harsh truth suggests that most sites and applications are still very bad in the UX sense.
Never mind..I see the disclaimer…
Wonder why only the first screen of video will play?
If you know InDesign then Adobe Muse is a piece of cake for producing straight forward websites.
I really don’t know what to think about that.
Indesign could be the perfect tool for webdesign if only Adobe would work on a proper export to HTML ou PSD.
It has everything a webdesigner could find useful : styles, effects, templates, text-bitmap-vector, etc.
Instead of this, INDD is just used to make wireframe tha could be done as well in Word or Excel…
Don’t understand the logic.
