Layout of the webpage to remain the same, this includes boarders, navigation bar, picture sizes not to vary in size between different images on the same page. Headings and logos on the page are to not be moved around but to be kept in the same space, to keep the layout still the same and look neat. (this also applies the the navigation bar so it doesnt confuse people). Also a base colour scheme that doesn't change.

A bad web page would be one with the navigation bar constantly changing, the colour scheme constantly changing, images changing in size and the use of different formats e.g. bitmap and JPEG files as the size of the images and file types with cause the photos to take a longer amount of time to load up. Webpage layouts changing often with boarders changing. Base text changing in size and in different fonts in slabs of text which can cause people great amounts of confusion and they wont beable to read it as smoothly as they want as their eyes have to keep on ajusting to the different sizes and fonts.
