Week of Oct. 20

This week we began going over the instructions for our webpages. Mr. Dean had warned us that we might be discouraged by the amount of work involved, but I honestly think it sounds pretty fun. My husband is a big computer programmer/website designer, so I am SOMEWHAT familiar with the process - though I usually only help with the "pretty" part of it - picking out templates on Joomla, picking out how to organize the site, etc. It will be interesting to do a website of my own.

We also turned in our webpage exercises today, which I thought were fairly easy. However, I did them on the new version of Dreamweaver that I downloaded...which is A LOT different than the version the instructions were made for. That fact was really the only hard part of the exercise. I also had some confusion with the example page looking different than the instructions said to make it (like the border around the picture and text in exercise 1 that was supposed to be invisible according to the directions). I just made my exercises like the example page - it was not much to change, and I figured that I would ask Mr. Dean when I got to class...which I did (and he said that either way was fine).
