Almost Done


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!)
