1. What was your experience using Layer Comps? In what way will you continue using layer comps in future projects.
Working with layer comps was ok. I didn't have a hard time with it, but it definitely took some getting used to. I felt like the book description on this wasn't very informative or I just wasn't getting it. After I played around with this a bit, I started to get the hang of it (just barely). It might be helpful for web design in the future.
2. Please describe which method you used to produce your slices. Did you experience challenges? After completing this part of the project, will you use slicing in future projects? Please review the Smashing Magazine link to see how Photoshop is being used to create web page layouts and assets. What are your thoughts about using Photoshop in future web projects?
Slicing was a bit easier to figure out. I used the method described in the Lydia.com video to highlight all my button layers and then to slice all the layers at once.
Smashing Magazine has some really great looking layouts. I think I need to become more (much, much more) proficient with powerpoint and HTML/Dreamweaver before I am at the point where I could create something that tidy and cohesive without some kind of tutorial.
3. In Part 2, you added images to your CSS to create a rollover without the text added to your image. The text was added in the XHTML. Which method of adding buttons do you prefer in your web design, rollover buttons using Dreamweaver or adding the image to your CSS? Why?
I was having a really hard time with this project. I did all of my coding in HTML rather than Dreamweaver. I know I probably missed a big chunk of this project, but I became so confused I just wanted to get something published. I found CSS coding to be a bit difficult, but I tried my best. It's definitely not a very pretty site, though.
4. What web asset did you create for Part 3? Did you create any additional assets for your website? Which ones?
I changed the table heading color to compliment my background color.
5.Did you complete the bonus?
No
6. What keyboard shortcuts are you using now?
I haven't added any new shortcuts since last week.
7. Add the link to your webpage.
Of course, for the last time, here it is
