For my portfolio revision, I added upon the code that I had created for our first website project. I had already selected the colors and photos that I wanted to display on my page, so for this project I focused on formatting what was already there by using the CSS tools that we learned in class. The most challenging part of this project was formatting my “favorite things” page, which I wanted separate into two columns using the float and <div> tools. In this part of my website, I wanted to use images and minimal text to visually share my interests and favorite things. At first, I found it difficult for the code to respond in the way that I wanted it to and I struggled to remove some tricky grey borders that I was using as guides, but I eventually achieved the composition that I envisioned. A lot of my color code and font codes were done in-line due in index.html due to my experimentation before in my first draft. I found it difficult to completely remove these in-line codes so I left them in there, but next project I want to have a cleaner main index.html file with all of the extra details in the css file. I also found that it was very easy to get absorbed into the coding process and solve problems as they cropped up. Overall, I found this project very enjoyable and felt creatively challenged.
