CSS Sheets

Using CSS sheets is handy for making visual changes to your page without effecting the information.
Some advantages include being able to update your style over a period of time, without affecting content.
You can also include outside images as your background.
Templates on the other hand are set styles you can chose from.
Templates also have the ability to change font colour, text size and style.
You can also change the background images and all colours.
Templates are limited to a certain amount of fonts colours and images.
There are many different aspects of accessibility with web pages to consider.
The page layout has to be easily navigable and also easy to be found using search engines.

last of all here's a link to colour charts found on the w3schools website, for changing colours using
hexadecimal values.

I found this cool periodic table for FONTS.

I think this is useful for any Graphic Designer.

MPI104_2010 Assessment #1

My Blogger account is http://spilljet.blogspot.com/
Here is the Link. So far on Blogger I've created 5 posts. I've tried to keep it interesting by having a constant
theme which I knew would flow throughout the subject. That being my AFL Dreamteam.
Here are some links to some of the more interesting blogs heres the 1st and the 2nd. Both talk about my Dreamteam.

To help the Aesthetics of my blog I chose a dark background with light colored writing to help the viewers eyes.
I recently added a picture at the top, and some fish on the side.

Here's a link to all the blogs I've commented on. Most of my comments are very short, and thus probably not too interesting.

When it comes to tags for blogger I got a bit confused. I went to this site but got even more confused, So this being the case haven't used any tags.

My DELICIOUS account is http://delicious.com/spilljet
but for your convenience you can find it here.
So far I have 29 bookmarks, but know that I will soon have more.
The ones of most interest to me are the ones associated to torrent sites.
Being this 1 and this 1 and this 1.
The 1st one has every sort of tv torrent you could want. The 2nd is a sort of blog about all the latest releases for people interested in downloaded anything.
And the last is where you go to download your torrents for everything else but also tv.

My Flickr account is http://www.flickr.com/photos/spilljet/
I currently have 26 images on here. I started it a while ago to show extra images of an item I was selling on ebay.
my 3 favourite images are. This mag cover I made as part of an assignment. Me shooting my brains out, also an assignment,
and An image I created of my boss.

Dreamteam

Ok so the dreamteam is well under way now. I've finally managed to crack the 2000 point per game mark.
Although I wish i could say it was with my original team. I actually created a new team 3 weeks in with the players i wish
I could have.
Anyway its all going well. although i also do footy tipping. both AFL and NRL. last week I was coming 258th out of about 50000 ppl on 
sportsbet for the NRL until last week I pick 1 out of 8 n dropped to over 4000th position.
Anyway, theres plenty of time to redeem.

Week 4 blog Delicious

Just like when Bruce McAvaney was talking about Cyril Rioli, today It's all about "Delicious"
My Account will show you all the links I have saved so far. I think this tool will be interesting,
but more so as time progresses. I know there's been times when I've found a great site,
haven't bookmarked it then tried to find it again and failed.

As for my 1st post about my Dreamteam here's an update. I decided to pick 3 mid range guys for the ruck. Looking back on it now It probably wasn't a wise choice. I should've went 1 high priced guy with 1 mid range.
 
At the moment my team is averaging around the 1700 points a week mark, which isn't great. In fact my missus created her 1st team and it scores better than mine.
 
Anyway i've got 20 trades for the year so may as well start fixing my team.

Flickr blog post

Flickr is an interesting program. I find it to be more useful to professional photographers with images to display.
For my account I've added images that I've created, and also created a set which is my portfolio which I intend to
forward people to who would like to view my work. I do however find the navigation of Flickr a bit tedious and could be
improved upon.
 
Anyway here's My Account I hope you find some interesting images on it.
And here is a particular image I think would be of interest.
I created it last year using photoshop.
