Revision

Here is my summary;

Blogger:
This is my fifth blog since I’ve been using blogger. Ive created posts on blogger, Flickr, Del.icio.us, Templates and this review. My favourite post would have to be about the templates .
As far as my blog’s aesthetics go I have played around a lot with the html design of my template. I’ve found this both fun and head ache inducing. In the end I used some of my digital artwork to dress the page in what turned out to be a mix between army and Swiss cheese. For the fonts I kept it simple to keep the blog usable.
I have commented on some classmates pages about there blogs

Del.icio.us:
Whilse using Del.icio.us I have bookmarked twenty three web pages. These include a variety of topics from this class, social sites and from my design interests. My three favourite pages include Raph this is a 3d artist gallery that I found some really cool work on. Andre Kutscheraur designs this guy has some awesome work that I really like and it’s a really cool set up too. facebook a bit boring and predictable but still one of my most used sites.

Flickr:
I’ve always liked flickr as a viewer but now starting to enjoy posting my own work on there. Currently I have uploaded 26 images. These are my favourite three:

Templates

after much research around the net i've doing so much trial and error work on my template. i found some useful sites that gave me the css coding to edit colours, images, padding and much much more. all though i was pointed out to me last class that you can change elements of you template without diving into the html code i found it very interesting and i think i learnt a lot by doing it manually. the down side of css is the amount of it. it can be hard to find things that you want to change.
