Updates and changes to website

Over time we have been making developments to our band's website. These include:
  1. Changing the background on the majority of the pages as we felt that there were too many trees which meant it got quite repetitive. Therefore, to make it interesting we included some photos we had taken away from setting of the music video which still had a nature aspect to them. 
  2. As a group we thought we should change the font for their band name 'Firelight Falcons' as previously it was quite a bulky font and did not stand out much with it having lower caps other than the start of the words. Therefore, we changed it to 'Marzo' which stands out more as it has a thinner style to the text but puts all the letters as capitals. 
  3. On the ABOUT page we removed the singular shot of one of the band members and added a group one with a slideshow underneath with a picture of all the members individually. Also, we inserted another quote from a made up magazine. 
  4. We added 'Account' and 'Help' buttons as we noticed band websites have them in order to buy merchandise but also for obvious help reasons for new comers to the site. 
  5. We put Spotify and iTunes buttons to the homepage of our website above the album to show the multiple ways people can access music currently, from streaming, buying on an app, as well as ordering a physical copy online through the band's shop. 
  6. On our HOME and MUSIC pages we added our final front cover to our album playlist. 
  7. We rearranged the SHOP page so it looked more professional, this included changing the set out of some of the merchandise and prices, along with the font of the titles. We also put the album into the shop. 
  8. We added another page called the GALLERY which includes behind the scene shots of the band members. 
  9. For the CONTACTS page we created emails for all the addresses we made up so they actually worked. 
  10. Finally, we added a slideshow on our HOMEPAGE of snapshots from our music video and on the VIDEOS tab we added our final music video.
