The portfolio project was definitely the most challenge website we worked on this semester, but it was also a fun thing to work on. I am surprised and pleased with the turn out of my website. In the beginning of the semester, I was having a very hard time designing website layouts that were simple and attractive and I feel like I accomplished that in my portfolio site. I’m very excited that I got the clickable image idea to actually work, but coding it was definitely a challenge.
I had a hard time coding the small clickable image that follows the visitor around the site (which was obviously going to be difficult since I don’t know JavaScript at all!) so it was necessary for me to get some help with that. Otherwise, I feel like I used all of the skills we learned in class throughout the semester to complete the rest of the site.
In the future I would like to spruce up the “contact” page, possibly by adding an image or a drawing, since I feel that the page is a little too plain. I feel the same way about the simplicity of the “about me” page, and I would like to do something to make that a little more visually interesting. However, overall, I am very pleased with the outcome of the site.
