To tell you the truth, this is my second experience in making a website. My first experience in typing one up was ghastly. Typing the code into WordPad was time-consuming and tedious. Uploading the page onto the net took even longer than I expected it to (this was when I had dialup instead of high speed internet). When the process of uploading it was finally finished, I got to glance at my work for the first time on the net and what I saw was not what I wanted to see. It was as if the page was done by a 2 year old whose tool was not crayons but with the keys of the keyboard. I remember noticing three of the biggest flaws to the page: the pictures weren't in the right places, the background coloring looked blotchy, and the text was so small that I had to put my face up to the Monitor’s screen. Everything about that webpage just seemed to be not what I expected it to be. I expected it to be one of the best sites out there but, it didn’t turn out that way. I ended up deleting the horrid site from the web and kept my mind busy doing other things that needed to be done. Not once since then have I tried to make a site from scratch until now. This time around I was able to create a high quality webpage from scratch with the help of sites that guided me through the process of making it. Although the page was a bit trite, I liked how it came out. It did not look as though an amateur had done it and that is what pleased me. Hopefully sometime in the future I will set up one that would be a bit better. Wednesday, October 21, 2009
HTML-Webpage Disaster
