1. Alignment is present in both websites. a. The Headhunters website uses alignment in their menu options and in there about us section (Alignment, n.d.). b. The Vain website uses it as well, but it doesn’t look very good. All of the text at the bottom looks as if it’s meant to be grouped together and it looks displeasing (Alignment, n.d.). c. I think that the Headhunter website uses alignment more effectively because of how it flows and connects to the things that it’s meant to (Alignment, n.d.). The paragraphs are aligned next to the pictures they are describing and the menu options are all next to the emblem. It looks nice and it’s easy to follow (Alignment, n.d.).
