Description

BACKGROUND

Retail websites display products in a favorable manner to entice guests on the website to make purchases. In addition, the websites must clearly convey the source of the website so as to leverage brand loyalty toward the retailer. In particular, the top of the retail webpage, which is the portion that is initially shown to the guest when the webpage is rendered on the screen, should indicate the source of the webpage and display products in an enticing manner.

The discussion above is merely provided for general background information and is not intended to be used as an aid in determining the scope of the claimed subject matter. The claimed subject matter is not limited to implementations that solve any or all disadvantages noted in the background.

SUMMARY

A request for a web page is received from a client and a set of products to be displayed in the web page is identified. An image of a partial logo and an image of a graphical element are provided to the client. The image of the partial logo and the image of the graphical element such that when the image of the partial logo and the image of the graphical element are displayed in the web page, the graphical element appears to be on top of part of a full logo such that only the partial logo is visible and such that the partial logo designates a source of the web page. Images of the products are also provided to the client.

In accordance with a further embodiment, instructions for displaying elements on a web page are retrieved from a computer memory. The instructions comprise a definition of a first container and a definition of a second container. The definition of the first container being within the definition of the second container. The definition of the first container and the definition of the second container are such that the first container is defined as extending outside a defined perimeter of the second container and such that elements in the first container will be rendered above elements in any other container displayed on the web page. The instructions are sent to a client using a processor. A first image to be displayed in the first container and a second image to be displayed in a third container are retrieved from a computer memory. The first image comprises a portion of a logo with a separating element and the second image comprising a graphical element such that when the first image and the second image are rendered on a display, the portion of the logo extends from the graphical element with the separating element positioned at an edge of the graphical element. The first image and the second image are sent to a client using a processor.

In a computing system, a memory stores images and a processor serves elements of a web page to a client.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Embodiments described below provide means for conveying the source of a webpage while increasing the amount of space available to display products on a retail webpage, particularly at the top of the webpage such that users can view products in the most enticing light without having to scroll down the page. Further, the embodiments described below provide depth to a retail webpage by making it appear as if a well-known logo is being partially covered by a banner on the page. In accordance with one embodiment, this is done by rendering a partial logo on top of a banner while aligning a line that crosses the partial logo with a shadow line along an edge of the banner.

FIG. 1 provides an illustration of a full logo 100. Logo 100 is an example of a logo that has been associated with a particular retailer and which, by itself, designates that products or webpages are being provided by the retailer associated with the logo. Such logos typically are not only recognized by consumers but have developed a level of good will with consumers so that consumers are more likely to buy products from a website if it contains the full logo.

Logo 100 includes an inner colored shape 102 that surrounds a center white section 104; a second white section 106 that surrounds inner colored shape 102; and an outer colored shape 108 that surrounds second white section 106.

FIG. 2 provides an illustration of a partial logo 200 having an inner shape 262 that surrounds a center transparent section 264; a second transparent section 266 that surrounds inner shape 262; an outer shape 260 that has an inner edge 268 that is in contact with the second transparent section 266 and an outer edge 270 that is in contact with an outer transparent section 272. Partial logo 200 also includes two transecting lines 202 and 204 that transect portions 206 and 208 of outer shape 260. Transected portion 206 has an upper part 210 that is separated from a lower part 212 by transecting line 202 and transected part 208 has an upper part 214 that is separated from a lower part 216 by transecting line 204. Upper parts 210 and 214 have upper ends 218 and 220, respectively, which are separated from transecting lines 202 and 204 by a distance 222.

Partial logo 200 is defined within and occupies the entirety of a rectangular image box or container 250 shown in dotted lines. Outer transparent section 272 extends to the left side, the right side, the bottom and the top of container 250. Upper parts 210 and 214 of outer shape 260 and second transparent section 266 also extend to the top of container 250.

Inner shape 262 and outer shape 260 are opaque and are filled with either a solid color or a pattern. Center transparent section 264, second transparent section 266 and outer transparent section 272 are each transparent such that any image or video displayed beneath these areas of partial logo 200 appear through partial logo 200.

Although particular shapes for logo 100 and partial logo 200 are shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, those skilled in the art will recognize that the logos may have any desired shape or imagery and the shapes provided in FIGS. 1 and 2 are only provided as examples. Further, although the colored shapes are shown to be the same color in FIGS. 1 and 2, different shapes may have different colors in other embodiments.

FIG. 3 provides an illustration of a portion of a web page 300 that contains a collection of divisions or containers. In HTML coding, each division or container is defined within <DIV> tags. Attribute variables within the <DIV> tags can define aspects of the container such as the x, y position of the upper left corner of the container, the height of the container, the width of the container, the z-index, the margins around the outside of the perimeter of the container, and the padding within the perimeter of the container, for example. The margins around the container define the distance between the container and neighboring elements on the page. If the margins are set to zero, the container and the neighboring elements are positioned immediately adjacent to each other. The padding within the perimeter defines spacing between the perimeter of the container and elements within the container. The z-index defines a layer level for the container such that if two containers overlap, the container with the higher z-index value will be displayed on top of the container with the lower z-index value. <DIV> tags may be nested such that one container is said to be within another container. The position of nested containers may be defined relative to the containers that contain them.

In FIG. 3, web page 300 comprises an outer container 302 that contains a special offer container 304, a header container 306, and a content container 308. Header container 306 contains search container 310, main menu container 312, secondary menu container 314 and partial logo container 250. Note that although partial logo container 250 is defined as being nested within header container 306, a majority of partial logo container 250 extends outside of header container 306. In addition, partial logo container 250 has a z-index value that ensures that partial logo container 250 is displayed over all other content on the page. In accordance with one embodiment, partial logo container 250 is given a z-index value of 700.

Special offer container 304 is positioned at the top of outer container 302 and is centered within outer container 302. Header container 306 is positioned below special offer container 304 and is also centered within outer container 302. Header container 306 includes a top margin 318 that separates header container 306 from special offer container 304. Those skilled in the art will recognize that top margin 318 is not necessary and that the size of header container 306 could be changed to provide the desired spacing for the page. Content container 308 is positioned below header container 306 and is also centered within outer container 302. Because content container 308 is positioned below header container 306, partial logo container 250 displays over both header container 306 and content container 308. In the transparent areas of partial logo container 250, the portions of header container 306 and content container 308 that are below partial logo container 250 are visible through partial logo container 250.

Outer container 302 also contains a background image 320 of a banner consisting of a solid-colored banner body 322 and a shadow line 324 at a bottom of banner body 322. Banner body 322 is a first color and shadow line 324 is a second color that is darker than the first color. Background image 320 has a height 328 measured from a top 330 to a bottom 326.

Background image 320, header container 306 and partial logo container 250 are positioned relative to each other such that transecting lines 202 and 204 of partial logo 200 are aligned with shadow line 324 at an edge of banner body 322 of background image 320.

FIG. 4 provides an expanded view of the alignment between line 202 and shadow line 324. As shown in FIG. 4, line 202 is aligned with shadow line 324 such that they appear to be the same line that turns darker over portion 206 of the partial logo. By making lines 202 and 204 darker than shadow line 324, it appears that banner body 322 is casting a shadow on partial logo 200. In addition, it can be seen that upper part 210 of partial logo 200 is displayed or rendered on top of banner body 322. In FIG. 4, an outline 400 of the portion of partial logo 200 displayed over banner body 322 has been provided. However, those skilled in the art will recognize that such an outline is not present and is only being used to illustrate the position of partial logo 200 on banner body 322. In accordance with most embodiments, upper part 210 of partial logo 200, which is rendered on top of banner body 322, is the same color as banner body 322 and as such cannot be seen on the webpage as indicated in FIG. 3. Thus, although a portion of partial logo 200 is rendered on top of a portion of banner body/graphical element 322, lines 202 and 324 make it appear as if partial logo 200 is underneath banner body 322. In addition, portions of banner body 322 and shadow line 324 that are overlapped by second transparent section 266 and outer transparent section 272 of partial logo 200 are visible through partial logo 200.

FIG. 5 provides an illustration of a webpage 500 rendered on a display. Webpage 500 includes banner body 322, shadow line 324, partial logo 200, heading 502 and product images 504, 506, 508, 510, 512, 514, 516, 518, 520 and 522. Webpage 500 also includes product descriptions 524, 526, 528, 530 and 532. In FIG. 5, partial logo 200 is positioned relative to banner body 322 such that lines 202 and 204 of partial logo 200 are aligned with shadow line 324. As a result, partial logo 200, banner body 322 and shadow line 324 make it appear as if banner body 322 is on top of an unseen part of full logo 100 of FIG. 1 such that only the partial logo is visible. In addition, lines 202 and 204 act as separating elements that distinguish banner body 322 from the portion of partial logo 200 that extends from banner body 322. Lines 202 and 204 indicate that banner body 322 is a separate element from partial logo 200.

By using partial logo 200 instead of showing full logo 100 of FIG. 1, the embodiment shown in FIG. 5 uses less space to show banner body 322 and to convey the source of the webpage than if full logo 100 were displayed separately from banner body 322. This provides more space at the top of the web page to display the product images 504-522 in a desired manner. In addition, by displaying partial logo 200 with a large z-index value such that partial logo 200 is not overlapped by other elements on webpage 500, the content in the webpage below banner body 322 may be positioned without the possibility of covering partial logo 200 with other content.

FIG. 6 provides an illustration of a second webpage 600. Webpage 600 includes banner body 322, partial logo 200 as well as heading 602, product images 604, 606, 608, 610, 612 and 614, product descriptions 616, 618 and 620, and category list 622.

In FIG. 6, lines 202 and 204 of partial logo 200 are aligned with shadow line 324 at the bottom of banner body 322. Lines 202 and 204 make it appear as if banner body 322 is covering or obscuring an unseen portion of logo 100. By using partial logo 200 instead of full logo 100 in conjunction with banner body 322 and shadow line 324, the embodiment of FIG. 6 reduces the space necessary to convey the source of the webpage thereby allowing the products more room to be displayed in a pleasing manner. In addition, by displaying partial logo 200 with a large z-index value such that partial logo 200 is not overlapped by other elements on webpage 600, the content in the webpage below banner body 322 may be positioned without the possibility of covering partial logo 200 with other content.

FIG. 7 provides a flow diagram of a method in accordance with one embodiment. In FIG. 7, a webpage server receives a request for a webpage from a client device at step 700. In response to the received request, the server identifies content to be displayed in a content container of the web page at step 701. In accordance with one embodiment, the content comprises a set of products. The server then provides instructions at step 702 that describe the position of an image of a banner on the webpage and that describe the position of an image of a partial logo on the webpage where the position of the partial logo is based on the position of the banner, one dimension of the banner and a position of transecting lines within the partial logo. For example, the position of the partial logo can be determined based on the position of the image of the banner as described by the coordinates of an upper left corner 312 of image 320 (FIG. 3), one dimension of the image of the banner consisting of the height 328 of the image 320 of the banner (FIG. 3) and the position of the transecting lines within the partial logo, which is the vertical distance 222 between the vertical coordinate of corner 252 of image box 250 and the vertical positions of lines 202 and 204. Using these exemplary values, the position of corner 252 of image box 250 is determined such that lines 202 and 204 align with shadow line 324 of banner image 320.

Note that although the Figures above describe the partial logo as extending from the bottom of banner image 320, in other embodiments, the partial logo may extend from the top of banner image 320 or from a side of banner image 320. Also, although a banner is shown in the Figures above, other graphical elements may be used instead of a banner and may be positioned relative to the partial logo to convey that the graphical element overlays and partially obscures a full logo.

At step 704, the server receives a request for the image of the banner from the client and at step 706, the server retrieves the image of the banner having a shadow line from memory and provides the image to the client. At step 708, the server receives a request for the image of the partial logo and at step 710, the server retrieves the image of the partial logo from memory and provides the image to the client. The partial logo is typically in a first color with the lines 202 and 204 in a second, darker color than the part of the partial logo that the lines cross over.

At step 712, the server receives a request for images of content to be displayed on the webpage and at step 714, the server retrieves the images of the content from memory and serves/provides them to the client. In accordance with one embodiment, the images of the content comprise images of products.

The steps of FIG. 7 may be repeated for different webpages using different layouts and different images of products while maintaining the relationship between the banner and the partial logo as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6.

FIGS. 8-1, 8-2 and 8-3 show a web page 800 containing an animation in content container 308. Each of FIGS. 8-1, 8-2 and 8-3 show a different stage in the animation, which progresses from FIG. 8-1 to FIG. 8-2 and finally to FIG. 8-3. In the animation, an image 802, showing a garden table with gardening implements resting against it, moves from left-to-right and downward.

In FIGS. 8-1, 8-2 and 8-3, the animation takes place within an animation container 804, which has a z-index value that is smaller than the z-index value of partial logo container 250. As a result, partial logo 200 overlays the animation in animation container 804 such that the portions of image 802 that are underneath inner shape 262 or outer shape 260 of partial logo 200 are not visible while the portions of image 800 that are below transparent sections 264, 266 or 272 of partial logo 200 are visible.

For example, in FIG. 8-1 a handle 806 of a gardening implement can be seen in transparent sections 264, 266, and 272. However the portions of handle 806 that are underneath inner shape 262 and outer shape 260 are not visible.

FIG. 9 provides a block diagram of a network environment which embodiments may be practiced. In FIG. 9, a collection of servers 902, 904 and 906 store one or more webpages that can be requested by client devices through a network connection 908. Such network connections can include the Internet or other wide area networks or an intranet or other local area networks. Client devices can include, for example, handheld device 910, desktop 912, tablet 914, laptop 916, gaming device 918 or a wireless device 920. Wireless device 920, including such devices as cellular phones, can request webpages through a cellular connection 922 to a wireless carrier 924, which is connected to the network 908. The client devices listed for FIG. 9 are examples of available client devices and other client devices that are capable of connecting through a network 908 to one or more servers 902, 904 and 906 can be used.

A computing system, the computing system comprising: a memory storing images;a processor serving elements of a web page to a client by:serving instructions that describe a position of a banner having a shadow line and that describe a position of an image of a partial logo having a straight line crossing at least part of the partial logo such that a first segment of the partial logo extends above the straight line and a second segment of the partial logo extends below the straight line, wherein the position of the image of the partial logo is based on the position of the banner, a dimension of the banner, and a position of the straight line crossing the partial logo;retrieving an image of the banner having the shadow line;serving the image of the banner having the shadow line;retrieving an image of the partial logo; andserving the image of the partial logo such that straight line crossing the partial logo is aligned with the shadow line and the first segment of the partial logo overlaps at least a portion of the banner.

16. The computing system of claim 15 wherein the position of the partial logo and the position of the banner are such that the straight line crossing at least part of the partial logo is aligned with the shadow line of the banner, the straight line crossing at least part of the partial logo is a horizontally extending straight line.

17. The computing system of claim 16 wherein the instructions further describe a first container that contains the image of the partial logo such that the container is given a z-index that is higher than a z-index of any other element on the web page.

18. The computing system of claim 17 wherein the instructions further describe a second container that is overlapped by the first container, wherein the second container is defined as containing at least one image that is overlapped by the partial logo such that part of the at least one image appears through a transparent part of the partial logo.

19. The computing system of claim 18 wherein the at least one image that is overlapped by the partial logo comprises an animation.

20. The computing system of claim 16 wherein the straight line crossing the partial logo is a darker color than the shadow line.
