10: Colour schemes and design mockups
If you followed on with the previous two articles in this series, you should now have a good idea of what color scheme you want your site to have, and roughly what the layout of each page will be. In this article, we move on to the next stage - creating a mockup of the site with site features added, so you can get more of an idea of how the final version will look.( Read the article )
As I see, the wireframe in picture 6 (navigation on right, ads on right) does not match the filled wireframe in picture 7 (navigation on top, ads in middle and bottom). However, it does match with the wireframe from the previous article. Maybe Pic 6 should be updated to the one from previous article. Or am I missing something?

Some parts are well written but some, are I would say unnecessary and irrelevant; if not confusing.

Hm. I'm not convinced, or maybe just not interested. This is too much of a "static page" design "tutorial" (who writes static pages anymore?). Too many decitions are based on knowing end result not predicting end result parameters; this is not flexible web desing just "one way to get it done". Some parts are well written but some, are I would say unnecessary and irrelevant; if not confusing.
Bear in mind that this is a beginner's tutorial - everyone needs to learn how a static page works before going on to dynamic code. And beginners often appreciate being given one solid way to get things done, and they can then go on to expand their techniques when they have a foot in the door, as it were. I'd like to hear more about what you consider unnecessary and irrelevant - I'm always looking to improve my course.
Thanks.

Hm. I did not consider this at the time, you make a very good and convincing point.
