How to Give Feedback Using Pastel
What is Pastel?
Pastel is a simple tool that lets you give feedback directly on your website design. Think of it like leaving sticky notes on a webpage - you can click anywhere and type your thoughts!
Getting Started
Step 1: Open Your Pastel Link
- Click the Pastel link your designer sent you
- The link will open your website design in Pastel
Step 2: Enter Your Information (First Time Only)
- Enter your name and email when prompted
- This helps your designer know who left each comment
- You only need to do this once
How to Leave Feedback
Method 1: Click and Comment
- Click anywhere on the page where you want to leave feedback
- Type your comment in the box that appears
- Press Enter or click "Post" to save your comment
- A small numbered dot will appear where you clicked
Method 2: Browse Other Pages
- Click "Browse Mode" at the bottom of the screen
- Navigate through your website like normal (click links, menus, etc.)
- Switch back to comment mode to leave feedback on other pages
- Click anywhere to leave comments on the new page
Tips for Great Feedback
Be Specific
- ✅ Good: "Move this button 10 pixels (or a bit) to the right"
- ❌ Vague: "I don't like this button"
Use Clear Language
- ✅ Good: "Make this text bigger and bold"
- ❌ Unclear: "This needs work"
One Comment Per Issue
- Leave separate comments for different changes
- This helps your designer address each item individually
Include Context When Helpful
- ✅ Good: "This color doesn't match my brand guidelines"
- ✅ Good: "My target audience might not understand this term"
What Happens Next?
- Your designer gets notified automatically when you leave comments
- They'll make the changes based on your feedback
- You'll get an email when revisions are complete
- You can review the updated design using the same Pastel link
