By using so many images, I am having a hard time organizing the links and images on the background in the exact places I want them. It has taken a huge amount of time pixelating back and forth to get items where I want them. So far I am happy with the looks of the site, and am hoping its construction will get a little easier as I learn how to design it.

Designing Website
Well, the designing has begun. I am finding out that I am doing more than I need to for my website. I certainly chose a theme (sort of) that turned out to be far more difficult than it needed to be. By choosing the wood signs I have found myself using my paint tools for each portion of my website, rather than just the main banner and background. By doing so I guess I am learning more than I probably would have doing it using tables and basic text links. I like the looks of my site, however it doesn't really represent myself or anything else for that matter. I like old and old looking things and simply felt the wood and stone wall looked pretty cool. I originally wanted to use Diamond plating, but couldn't really make it work.

Cheers! It's good to hear about your design decisions. Sometimes we forget how hard it is for our students to do a project, so struggling a bit with our own ones helps us remember (and maybe be a little more sympathetic). Look how far you have come to know what to do to make your site look the way it does. Congratulations! Maybe we will see the Diamond plating during the summer. :-)
