Navigation Bar Tutorial (My First)

This is my first tutorial I have ever made and decided to use not a lot of text and just enough images for people using slower connections. This is quite simple but people asked me about the gradients mostly so I wanted to make this. A more complex tutorial will come later as a video tutorial. Hope you find this a bit useful

I always thought the standard resolution for screen media was 72 dpi?

It is.

I'd remove that bit. Change the image displaying a resolution to 72dpi so that people don't have to go searching on Google for the correct resolution. Other than that, it's a good tutorial .

Heh, someone needs to learn the very basics of screen media design.

An interesting tutorial, will help out the beginners with getting that feel for some of the billion various options within Photoshop. Although I'd clean the tutorial content as well as the tutorial page up a bit, make it more structured and perhaps instead of links for the previews, include thumbnails! It'll make the page more appealing and also entice the viewer to click more.

I used to know what the resolution was for...but it became a habit to just use 77 after 4 years so it was hard for me to remember.

As for using thumbnails...I wanted to limit the use of images for the people with slow connections such as a friend of mine. Thanks for your comments

Well, thumbnails don't have to be big, even avatar size (gif's under 20kb each) would suffice. The text links just get monotonus.

I might make some and see how my friend likes them with his 56k.
