Well, I haven’t even commented on last weeks workshop and it’s already this weeks!

Ah, well, let me just say that the guys at the Writing Center did a great job. They gave a handful of teachers the responsibility of revamping a defunct zine called the Sentinel. We discussed all sorts of design and concept issues, looked at several really interesting examples of both good and bad website design before launching into our own designs. I had a blast…and it turned out suprisingly good. I know a few of the “experts” who were helping us were frustrated by Nvu at moments, but they’ve been spoiled by DreamWeaver…lol Not going to be appearing in my budget anytime soon and Nvu does a great job anyway. I actually ended up with two drastically different designs, playing with a more “artsy” graphic journal look to the one and a very clean “educational” looking version. It’s amazing how different they look and how much you can play in Nvu….Now if I could just find a free web hosting service I liked. Shopping is not nearly as fun as designing….so back to Nvu. ; )
