About Convey

Quick-Start templates are a great option for schools interested in launching a site on an accelerated timeline or for schools who are unable to commit resources to a full-scale Web design project. This guide will help you select the template that best fits your school’s brand and online communication goals.

All quick-start templates are built with onMessage’s responsive Web design (RWD) functionality, enabling the school’s site to scale and reposition for optimal display on each user’s device. The general explanation for how this works is that design elements such as photos or main navigation shrink proportionally from the full width of a large desktop monitor to an iPad display. On devices smaller than an iPad, continually shrinking features would render them too small to read or click, so the system switches from scaling to repositioning. 

The repositioning prioritizes elements from top to bottom, left to right, so a full-size design with a logo in the uppermost left corner will feature this graphic at the very top on the phone display. Media query settings in the CSS code are also used to control where items display at various screen sizes. Due in part to these settings, changes to quick-start templates in the design process are limited to logos, colors and fonts, and any requests for structural modifications may incur additional charges.
 

The Convey Template

A premium design using our Scroll Spy Menu functionality, Convey engages users, allowing them to automatically be navigated to lower sections of the homepage with ease. This design impressively presents your information, combining sleek typography, beautiful imagery and smart functionality.

Things to Think About

  • The best Scroll Spy sites are those that employ this navigational technique as the result of a home page content strategy
  • The visible area of each scroll spy section on the home page is going to vary depending on the user’s device and screen resolution, as well as the content being displayed
  • The value of high-quality professional imagery cannot be understated in the overall home page aesthetic
  • It's also important to note that scroll-spy home pages with large amounts of content may incur longer page loads
