Week 11- Digital Publications

Today I am handing in my website and book. I have finally been able to design and print my book and am quite happy with my website. I am quite proud what I have achieved in a short amount of time and with many problems encountered along the way. The process was quite daunting as my computer crashed when trying to download Adobe In Design, yet was able to get it fixed. Then my printer wouldn't print it double sided so I had to go to a special printing place, which was quite expensive. However, it is done now and I have finally been able to publish my own book, which I have always wanted to do. 

Week 9, 10 & 11- Digital Publications

During these classes I will be finalising my book and website. I have lots to do, which is kind of stressing me out becuase I need to finish it by next Friday before teaching rounds. At times I have encountered a number of problems (e.g. back ground colour for website and making them all individual, sizing the book on indesign). Yet luckily my classmates have been able to help me out when Stuart is not. Unfortunately Stuart won't be able to help and guide our projects this week. This is basically the last day I have to ask him questions before handing it in, so it makes it quite difficult. Hopefully other stduents will be coming in who can help me. I am fidning out how important it is to have support connections. Without them I wouldn't have been able to get to the stage I am at now.

The following steps I aim to take for the website:
- colour websites backgrounds differntly and ask
- copy and paste pages yet chnage pictures
- make sure links work
- make cover for dream weaver work
- cover sheet for assignment

The following steps I aim to take for the book:
- page numbers
- pictures on pages 1- 10
- page layout on pages 11-18
- design and add pictures to pages
- finish and save as adobe
- go to officeworks for advice on prniting and binding
- make cover for indesign work
- cover sheet for assignment

Wish me luck!
