UI设计的10个原则
没有好的界面和用户体验，网站也就很难留住用户，下面介绍在UI设计中需要注意的10个方面。
- 不要忘记你的用户(Don’t Forget About the User)
过多的关注CSS和XHTML及代码的兼容性，而忽视了最终用户。We just can’t assume that standards compliance is all that’s needed to create a good UI.
2. 不要忽视错误页面(Don’t Overlook Error Pages)
在出现错误时，需要将错误信息描述清楚，而非简单的告诉用户访问出错。they will spend the time to understand an error situation if you explain it clearly, because they want to overcome the error。
3.任何时候都要设置背景色(Always Set a Background Color)
4.不要过多的设置一些可访问性元素(Don’t Overdo Accessibility Features)
对于刚了解的可访问性的设计人员来说，会特别注意通过使用HTML元素或其他方法来提供可访问性，但这些元素如果用得不正确反而会导致访问性差。when used wrongly have no effect and can actually have the opposite effect by making the page less accessible and less usable。
5.采用焦点中心设计(Use Epicenter Design)
最先设计页面中最主要的部分，最主要的部分就是在页面中，如果这部分不存在将会整个改变页面的目的。Using the Epicenter Design method keeps our UIs focused, and ensures that we’re not "missing the point" of the page.
6.了解用户
了解用户在浏览网页时是如何与应用进行交互的。可以邀请朋友来测试网站，并观察他们在访问网站时是如何操作的。Knowing how users interact and use your website is incredibly valuable information, and if used correctly can greatly change your UIs to better suit your users.
7.填写表单时提供有意义的提示(Give Incentives For Users to Complete Forms)
用户在填写表单或表单填写完毕后，给用户一些有意义的提示，增强友好性。The user must feel that the value or outcome outweighs the cost (or time) of having to fill out the form.
8.UI设计的一致性
在用户体验中，页面表现越跟用户的期望一致，用户将越感到有可控性。when things always behave the same, users don’t have to worry about what will happen.
9.减少行话的使用(Keep Jargon to a Minimum)
如果在应用中采用过多的行话，将会影响一般用户对文章的理解。If you’re using it outside of that situation, you’re probably not communicating clearly, honestly, or effectively。
10.采用原型而非框架(Make a Prototype Instead of a Wireframe)
Prototyping allows us to see problems more clearly–and often earlier–in the design and development process.
