Web design has been pretty interesting, i've enjoyed it for the most part and feel fairly confident with the programs. The first half of the project was a bit stressful with everything that could wrong actually going wrong and destroying all of my work.
I started off by making Illustrator files which were then modified in Fireworks and finally the whole thing was brought together in Dreamweaver. Illustrator was very simple to use as I was already accustomed with it. Fireworks raised a few problems but ultimately was a easy ride to complete my rollovers and change a few things. Dreamweaver and uploading to the web was where the problems arose, when I tried changing some of my HTML's in fireworks etc they weren't working in Dreamweaver and kept messing up my website. The links were easy to set up and the site was simple enough to set up following Thomas' video.
Ultimately The only way things started working was when I started to work from my laptop at home rather than the computers at Uni. My dreamweaver had crashed at uni and was rendered inoperable therefore not creating a site. I rectified this problem very easily however once I was on my laptop and my site was soon up and running. Apart from a few changes that brought up some issues last night everything has been running smoothly and I am overall extremely happy with my site. I also feel very confident in being able to edit my webspace from now on and feel as though it is a good reflection of the work I have put into it over the past 6 weeks.
