creating site maps

One of our assignments was to create a site map for a website of our choice. What a site map does is show you the functionality of the web site, it shows you where each link leads you to.  Each box across the top going horizontally represents a link on the home page. The boxes that go vertically show the links that are on each of the boxes along the top.

Chili Pepper

 The chili pepper assignment was to take a stock photo and add text to it in photoshop that might relate to the article. We then chose a random article on the wikipedia website and placed the text to page. We then had to source the article on the page, this method helped us learn how to utilize links and change CSS styles in order to change the color of either active, visited, and also hover links.

Home Page

This is my personal home page that I designed for my web-based software class. I used illustrator to create a custom header that states what this page is about.  My personal homepage has working links that lead to separate pages with images that were manipulated in photoshop. We have used the tutorials at lynda.com to take us through the steps on how to design our first website and how to also get it to function properly. We have also used kuler.com to help with color schemes that we could use for our websites.
