Ok I am finally finished!!! I was a bit worried since I broke my USB drive while working in webnode. So I had to wing it a bit with my images. Obviously FrontPage would not be my first choice. Not having this class I could have figured out how to build a website on webnode, but never on Frontpage.
My websites are similar but I added a couple more things to the webnode site. I was able to add two links under pets to about: Dogs and Cats. I thought that was neat. It was also a bit harder to change some of the font and colors from the templates on webnode and I was unable to add my paw prints like I had on Frontpage.
I added more pages then necessary on Webnode, mostly becasue they were already there and only needed to be tweeked a bit.
This class was an amazing way to end at Albright. I have had the opportunity to learn from various instructors that share a passion for the program. Lee has been an amazing guide through my education and experience here at Albright.
Oh and by the way the name of my website is: http://cms.rescue-us.webnode.com/


Thanks for everything!

Week 5 - Website

The tile of my website is Rescue Us. It is a nonprofit organization dedicated to finding homes for dogs and cats. This topic is very close to my heart. Living in PA with all of the local puppy mills and the increase of pet abuse in the media. I find it nearly impossible to not to become passionate about this cause. All of the pets that I own are rescued or strays that we have taken in. Even though they are not pure breed or came with any papers, I have the best furry kids ever!!

I will use pictures of my own pets as well as various images from clip art. Even though the pets are not pedigree I want to offer different breeds and mixes.

I will be using Front Page to make my website.

The story board is very helpful. But I tend to focus on making it nice, even though it is merely a rough draft. After getting past that it was easier to continue with my flow.
