The overall look of the recipe changed was changed quite a bit from the computer prototype to make efficient use of the available space. We increased the span of the portion displaying the recipes and reduced the clutter of the search options portion by grouping options more effectively. We also used jquery UI buttons instead of standard radio buttons/check boxes to improve the overall look and increase the area a user can click to select an option.
While our computer prototype only included links to recipes, our final implementation also has pictures of recipes to improve visibility. We also included a list of additional necessary ingredients so that the system can make a wider variety of suggestions to the user. We achieve visibility here through the use of icons (shape and color visual variables).
