Final Process Journal

For the last weeks I have been working on my website. I haven't finished my website as I have barely any information. I also didn't really use my plan because for a couple of weeks Mr.Hitchman wasn't there so I didn't look at my plan. I could have just looked on my files but I forgot about them. During the whole process, I had lots of problems such as inserting pictures and moving them around. I also had problems typing in the information I actually had. It was quite difficult with Mr. Hitchman not being there because when I needed some help no one could help me, not the substitute or my peers.
My main problem was typing in information after I had made the contents table. I should have done what Ramsha did. She typed in all her information and then she made her contents table. I typed most of my information up in the last lesson. This is one of the hardest projects I have ever done. It could of been easier if Mr. Hitchman was there and if we didn't miss so many classes.
If i was to do this again I would not waste so much time at the beginning and do some research at home.
My website didn't really answer the questions on the Wiki Classroom. I didn't have much information to answer the questions. I'm also quite disappointed with my final website because I thought I was going to make it really good and informative. But unfortunately I ran out of time and wasn't able to complete it.

I hope if I ever do this again, I will be able to complete the task.

Pros and Cons of My Two Designs

Well for my first design it has everything I want. It is just I don't think the colour scheme is appropriate. Black and green aren't suitable for a website. That is the only problem with design one. Design two has one bad thing about it, the text Kristen ITC. It's good for more kid like websites like BBC or CBBC. This is a serious website where I want people to read it and not have a hard time reading it. So I have chosen to go with design one because it looks smarter and it's not too smart. Also the text won't be too big or too small. The table of contents is in a good place ( top right of page and so is the logo. I think I might just change the colour scheme from black and green to black and blue. Maybe for the titles I might use a bright colour but not too bright. I think the information will be in bite sizes so readers don't get bored of trying to find the information they want.
