Hi,
The new On The Job assignment is progressing quite well so far, with the
back-up site almost completed. I am just waiting on some content and images to make the final touches to it. I spent a bit of time yesterday implementing a Google map for the
location page, it looks alot better than what they were currently using which was a link with a popup to another map, which didnt actually look that good. I have made a few other alterations to the original site aswell, I have added a page title to each page, and also improved the alignment on everything.
The rest of my time on Monday and Tuesday morning was spent doing two sites for the competitive analysis, the sites I have been analysing are
Ross Fabrics, and
JR Fabrics. Turns out I came up with alot more negative points for them both than I did strengths.
The assignment is progressing smoothly, the webplan is just about complete, screen designs are around about the same level. So I am hoping to be able to start making the site in CSS next week. The designs are looking quite nice so far.
I don't feel starting to build a new CSS site is as daunting anymore as it used to be when I had just started using it. Now I am fairly comfortable in my ability to get on with it and get it working, in a variety of web browsers.
I am thinking about rebuilding my portfolio site again after I finish college, to the same design as before but I think I could code it more efficiently now than I could then.
Any feedback on the
JBrown back-up site would be more than welcome.
Dave.
