Class,
When you are done with Exercise 16...
We begin to learn about the language of the internet - HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language). You will start to learn this language so that you can have better control over your design and layout of websites you make in graphic design. Knowing HTML and eventually Cascading Style Sheets will get you more in command of an online world.
For Exercise 17, you are to make 1 HTML page that has the following pieces:
1. A Page title
2. A paragraph
3. A heading
4. A list
5. A link to an image
6. A table
The HTML file and the image are to be placed in a folder to turn in due December 7.

I will return by Monday to help you with the parts.

Hand Drawn page design
In order to create a website, designers begin with pencil and paper and draw out their ideas before they commit to the computer.
Here are some examples of hand drawn web pages.
The idea is to get the idea out on paper...don't waste time trying to make software do what you want to express an idea. Start with some simple words that describe the purpose of the site, maybe some thoughts about what you want and do not want on the page(s). Some sketches are very rough and some much more illustrated in order to draw out the exact logos you want. For now, just try to get out on paper the information you want on the pages.
