| Divi – building website is kind of like painting a masterpiece |
How often do you see this ad showing on your smartphone or laptop screen when you open YouTube?
Maybe after 5 seconds of viewing you immediately click the skip button in the bottom corner.
But do you know what he’s talking about? I tried to watch the video to the end. Not long, only about a minute and a half.
The first sentence says that “building a website is kind of like painting a masterpiece except it’s nothing like painting a masterpiece” – building a website is like painting a masterpiece.
That’s the snippet of the first sentence before you hit the skip button.
The advertisement discusses about making a website as we want, only about the appearance of the website, not about how the content is.
After watching the video, I thought that what she said was true.
Creating a website is indeed a masterpiece. For a novice blogger who is new to the world of blogging like me this is “something”.
Starting from thinking about what the content will be and to how it will look. It’s really something for the owner.
I myself have felt how difficult it is to start a site so that it contains content that can be useful for readers. If you look back at a time when there were not many websites on the internet. The only thing that can be visited is how much time and energy the website builder spends to make the website fat, crowded with visitors, and look good.
When you want to edit the display, for example, you just want to enter the navigation menu, how happy I am to see that the writing in the navigation can change on the website page. When it comes to changing colors, changing font sizes, and it all goes into css, I’ve had a lot of fun. There is knowledge that I get from it.
It’s natural for me, who doesn’t know the basics of web programming, to create a website that can look good. Although the designs are still used by other people, but in the future I hope to be able to make my own templates.
Now, in the midst of many blogger and wordpress templates scattered on the internet, how many works are produced by website designers (template makers). Then over time more and more people are making websites, the appearance is different. How many masterpieces and I think no one wants to have the exact same look.
I think how great the masterpieces of the template makers are, let’s call it Mas Sugeng Riyadi, or Bung Frangki whose template I’m currently using. Making something useful for others is not an easy thing.
Although not everyone uses his work, that’s when I realized that we can’t be masters at everything. Just focus on one thing and become a master in that field.
What do you think?
