If you don't come to class, email me a copy:
I'm expecting you to have an HTML page, and an external CSS page completed.

If you do not finish a rough draft of your FINAL PROJECT by Dec. 5th, then your final project grade will be reduced by 10%


The project should be uploaded to a server (before the due date).
* Bring in the html, css, & image files in 1 directory



Grading :

Your grade will be determined by your ability to turn things in on time, and follow directions. The grade for your finished project will be based on your attention to detail, and the overall look of the website. All webpages designed for the site should have a consistent design or "feel". All pages should be clearly labeled, have titles/headings, and all the links should work. Make sure your site is easy to navigate.
Your presentation will also affect your grade.
