Final Thoughts

May 7, 2009

I feel like I learned a lot in MCMA 301 this semester.  I developed a greater design sense, and became much more accustomed with the Adobe Suite.  Especially in Photoshop.  Before the semester I knew very little about optimizing images for the web.  I also had no idea how to create a web layout in Photoshop.  I think learning how to design a website in PS, slice it, and upload it into Dreamweaver was my greatest achievement.  I also am happy that I now know how to create some basic flash, as well as some new tricks in DW, and a bit of code.  I think this class was beneficial to my design skills, and knowledge of Adobe.  I hope anyone that views my website enjoys it.

Sincerely,

VinMedia

Problems fixed

May 7, 2009

I fixed the errors I had with all of my pages.  I think I even successfully embedded my video to my page.  It is a great feeling to finally have this website completed.  There are some things that I would like to change as time goes on but as for now all of my pages and links function.  I am proud of my site, and I think it is a great start to my online portfolio.  The site is uploading to the web right now so I hope everyting comes out properly.

More Problems

May 7, 2009

Now I am having problems with between my graphics and contact pages.  I dont’ know what happened but dreamweaver doesn’t like me the day this website is due for class.  Now I am going to have to spend more time fixing it.

Vimeo

May 7, 2009

I tried to embed my video from vimeo to my page.  However, when I did it moved most of my content around and didn’t seem to work properly.  I hope I can find a solution to this ASAP.  At this point because I had to save it to preview in firefox, I know have to reload my video page. Ugghhhh.

Dreamweaver?

May 7, 2009

This morning I woke up to add my video to my page and I found that my home, graphics, and contact pages were all misarranged.  This was very frustrating because I had to go back and re-slice, add, and arrange my pages.  I don’t know why dreamweaver did this but it was not fun.

Cool Texture

May 7, 2009

I have changed this website’s desing so many times.  I wish however, I would have had the photoshop skills I have now at the beginning of the class.  I would have loved to add a cool graphic texture to the background of my site something similar this one that I created in Photoshop.

Uploading video

May 7, 2009

I just finished my video project for my JRNL 436 class and am hoping to add it to my video page.  However, when I tried to embed it from Vimeo it looked a little funky.  I am hoping to sort it out as soon as possible.  Below is the link to my vimeo page.
