With the end of the semester upon us, I have shifted my
focus from my own, nearing-completion webpage to the Albuquerque Airport web
page. This one is more important and so I am putting more time and energy into
it. My project is a group project with two other students directly, and a few other
students helping with the programing as well. We are working on a visual
project, putting together a web gallery, focusing on the airport and tourism. It’s
so strange to think that we are making a professional website. It’s cool, but
also adds a lot of pressure since we want it to be good and something we are
proud of and happy to have our names attached to. I’ve been having trouble with
a few aspects of the page and will soon have the web designer help me. I tried
to create a new page to make a separate gallery, but when I copied the
information and pasted it where I wanted a new page to be, it would simply
replace the other instead of making a new one. I tried changing it several
times, trying to figure out how to make a replica and not delete the page. But
I still could not fix it. So there’s my failure of the failure blog. But the
good news is that it does not have to be done today. And even though I could
not make a separate page, I was still able to work on the slides, so I’m still
making good progress. And when this problem gets sorted out, all I have to do
is move over the slides I want on to the new page. I still have to go back and
cite the pictures and text and add in one more section, but the pictures are
done, except for one, which I am having trouble working with. It was at first a
PDF, and then I thought I got it switched to a jpeg, but Pixlr will not edit
it. I tried it as a png too, but again Pixlr said there was an error. I will
have to ask about this in class as well. But really, the page is nearing
completion, despite these obstacles. And I think it will be good one! We have
great pictures and a cool web design. It will be very interesting to see the final
product! Check it out in a week or two when the first draft is done! (Sorry, we
don’t have a url yet, but Google can surely get you there!)
