While attempting to create my new Web site, I came across some pretty tricky development issues.
I am currently using Kompozer to design my site and hit some bumps in the road. I thought that the program might just be limited to what my idea was so I tried Dreamweaver instead and found that the programs weren’t the problem at all. The things I wanted to do were just too complex.
One of the things I wanted to accomplish was shadowing and layovers with pictures (one picture overlapping another). I found out that in order to do this, I had to go into Photoshop and create a piece of art and then insert it as an image. Hard enough learning how to figure out how to publish a file to the internet, right?
Here are some tips and some feedback from some people as well. Did I mention the author used tag cloud? Smartwebby.com is another site that could have potentially assisted me in my design needs if in fact I knew what I was doing with flash. The site has shadowing tips as well as different shapes that you can insert images into. But, I’m still working my way up from the bottom.
What I’ve learned from writing this blog is that, this stuff is way harder than I thought.
