Term2 Week 5

What I did today was:

• Further used Aplets
• Looked at Xara 3D: In this I created an animation. Saved it in the W drive so that I could view it in a page and then made changes in Xara to my satisfaction. After this I exported again the end product so that it could be viewed on a webpage.
• Loaded consultscroll-text.txt to add to our website template I copied the code into my author webpage and in html view it shows scrolling text and I changed the background colour in code to make it the same colour as my web page.
• Explored parameters.
  

Term 2 Week 4

Today in our lesson we created a template for a Brit School webpage.

The list below is a list of skills that I learnt today:

• Image mapping
• Using graphics
  
• Use of the Alt tag
• Secondary menus
• Use of filled background images
• Use of a template page
• Customising the title tag
• Use of Colorzilla in Firefox to identify a colour
  
• Use of Java Aplets: Java Clock

To see the pages that I have created click here.

Term 2, week 3

This list below is everything that I have learn' t to put into a web page to make it accessible to alot of people.

• Nul and zero are different.
• Never forget to use the Alt tag this is useful for not excluding blind people.
• Always use Arial font as everybody has Arial on their computer.
• Keep screen to 780 pixels as the highest resolution on computers is 800 pixels.
• Big writing so that partially blind people can see.
• No confusing colours as not to confuse people who are colour blind.

Today also I created a 6 page web site. I have used Macromedia before so it wasn't too difficult. I was able to hyperlink to all of the pages, hyperlink every page back to the index page and hyperlink to the BRIT school web site.

Term 2, week 2

Last week I started my animation GIF and today like I said I would do in Animation shop I stitched my frames together.
Then using copy and paste I repeated my frames to the end so that my animated GIF of my name would move in and out.
Once finished I saved my animation in the W: drive added the name of my animation to the end of my website address and then linked it to my blog.

I finished my GIF Animation today. Now you can view it here.

Once again for almost the whole lesson Mr Hill talked and talked and I HATE that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Term 2 Week 1

Todays lesson consisted of finishing things off (even though I didn't need to do this) and handing work in-Assignment 1.
The interesting part of the lesson came when I got the chance to create my own animation GIF in Animation Shop. The animated GIF was of my name and in Paint Shop Pro I made my frames. Next week I'll stitch my frames together to complete the animation. Then I'll create a link to allow you to see it.
