My Website


I decided to work on two different pages since I separated the index page from the “About Me” information. I had already placed a share tag at the top of my index page. I decided to change the background and the colors of the fonts on the index page and then matched them to the “about me” page. I also changed the background color.

On the “about me page” I matched the colors to my index page, and taking a cue from Wayne, I was able to post my picture. I went to Google Images and looked myself up. I was able to find a URL to my facebook photo and use the HTML coding to put it on the page. Then, I darkened the color of the fonts by adding the color code into the HTML coding in the “About Me” section and the “Career” section just to provide a little contrast. I don’t think it turned out too badly for a first try.

Before taking this class I had no idea how to make even a simple Webpage so I’m pretty happy to have learned the beginning of the process. I didn’t find it that difficult as long as I used the previous examples and worked off of them.

  1. Hey David,
    I think you did a great job on your site. It was very easy for me to read. I agree with you, before this class started, I had no idea how to build a simple page let alone one that is very complex. I'm looking forward to and excited to see what's coming in the weeks ahead.

    Again, job well done!!

  2. David:

    I enjoyed viewing your index and About me page. As I clicked back and forth from the pages, I imagine how difficult I would make separating the index from the about me page. : ) You did a great job, styling your pages, David.

  3. Tom--Thanks!

    Anteah--Thanks! I thought that was the way were supposed to do it. But no one, as far as I could see, separated the pages. I guess I did a little extra work. ; )

  5. Hello Dave,
    Great post. It is interesting how I can click back and forth on your pages. You must have put a lot of work especially making two separate indexes. Thanks for the creativity and hard work. Thanks for sharing with the entire class.
