Purpose Statement

I am going to create a Portfolio Site. The main purpose of my site is to show my art projects in a more creative way. Almost like a portfolio. On my website I will be sure to have my graphic design work and some information about me.

During Web Design today I finished my poster for Illusion and created my splashpage. I also added a picture to my html first website. I am really confused on how to place the pictures in the right spot instead of them being all spaced out.

Today in class I worked on my logo in Illustrator. I cleaned my image and made it more sharp. Tomorrow I am going to make the finishing touches on the logo and then start to work on my website.

 J.C.R. Licklider of MIT was credited for envisioning the "internet" in August of 1962. He called it his "Galactic Network" concept.

HTML is the language that web pages are written in. "Hypertext mark-up language." To create a HTML you would need a word-processing program such as Microsoft's Notepad or WordPad, or Mac's Simple Text. Some different programs that are on this computer that can help build a website are Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator and Microsoft Word.

Some actually believe that both a banner and header are referring to the same thing but in fact they are not! A header is an image that is placed on top of a website or blog. It is usually horizontal in size and consists of mainly of logo or some other elements such as social media icons, advertisement banner or search bar. The main purpose of the header is to set the feel a website and inform you what the websites purpose is. Unlike a header, a banner is used to inform or advertise purposes. Banners are more interactive and dynamic due to technology today but are less effective.
This is a banner.
This is a header.
