  3. Technical Challenges • Coding combinations • Using different styles on EW (e.g. Java) • Images • Limited knowledge of EW resulted in challenges adding many factors such as, graphics, java scripts, colors, background, etc.

  4. Design Desicions • Background Color • Pink as most eating disorder patients are women • Images • Many people do not know differences between the three ED’s or physical symptoms associated with them, hence the set of pictures describing each condition. • Limited yet sufficient information was the key element of this website, hence the screens were simple to keep the readers attention on the information and not fancy designing.

  5. Lessons Learned • Image challenges • User friendly information and design maybe somewhat challenging at times • Information/content size • Organizing the whole website in general.
