Session 33 (November 25th)

After finishing the basic layout of my website on CS5, (as seen on early posts), this is the list of things I will do in order:

-Adding colour to the website

-Font choices, text (mainly san serif font)

-Background choice that does not interfere with the text

-Images in pages

-Navigation Menu for the website

-Information/content of the site

-Linking pages to the navigation menu

Session 32 (November 17th)

During the process of creating my website using Adobe Dreamweaver CS4, an update for the software was detected and I had to revert to the changes that the update had done to the software. The version was updated to CS5, where most of the button layouts were changed and the screen functions were different. This caused difficulties in my processing of my website as I had to retrack what I had down and to use a new tutorial which would guide me through the new software.

URL of new tutorial: http://www.thesitewizard.com/dreamweaver/dreamweaver-cs5-tutorial-1.shtml

Everything was basically similar between the tutorials, all except there were new functions and the pre-existing buttons were renamed, which caused me a while to figure out. I also had problems opening my CS4 website file in the new software, as it didn't allow it. Therefore I chose to redo the website as I hadn't gone too far with it.
