Its all Crap Really...................


The Tutorial.

This week Andreas had us working with photoshop again but this week we linked our work to a different colour background.

One was yellow and one was red.

We manipulated a picture and overlayed it with text so that the picture took on the texts form. I chose to have my text underlayed with real flames and it looked pretty swish.

Then we took our text and placed it onto a colour background. My text then looked pretty sh*t.

Looked even worse on the yellow one!!!

The lecture.

Daniel talked this week about HTML and how we will need to set our web pages up in a logical format when we produce them.

We looked at validation through a website that takes our pages and marks them to its own standards.

When i make my webpage i will have to look into this as it can easily turn into a visual nightmare.

I have always tried to stick to a logical set of rules when i write test and produce reports. This is to make sure the script seems balanced and the text flows. I learned this week that there are a set of standards that we can use for the web too.

The reflection

I will have to keep a careful eye on my web pages in the future. I dont want to make a page that is hard to read and puts the viewer off in the first look. My page will undoubtedly be full of crap then but at least it would look pleasing to the eye.

It seems you can polish a turd then!!!!!
