Just an update on the progress of my project.
Basically I wanted to create a sort of personal scrapbook-type site that would allow me to express ideas and interests along with displaying photos and work and a person history element. It will allow me to creatively organize my thoughts, what's important to me, and provide a sort of visual reminder of my individual history. One day the site will include many pages, but the most complex? aspect of the site would be an ongoing timeline, which I will be developing for the class project.
The timeline will be somewhat of a visual record and interpretation documenting the major events and experiences that have shaped my life. It will take on the form of a typical, standard timeline, with dates, images and text, but I would like to be more creative in the visual aspects of it, allowing the viewer to form different interpretations based on their interaction with it. I am sure that there could be many ways to create this page and its visual imagery, but for the time being I have decided to work on it with basic HTML and concentrate more on the visual content of the page; perhaps later down the line I will make it into a flash site when I get more comfortable working with the process of creating a site.

How's it going, Sarah? By now you should have the basics online. I look forward to seeing the progress you've made, and also finding out if you have the technical basics in place to upload your material to the web. Take a look at Ben's site - his is a good work in progress that could be adapted to look a little more complex if he so desired.
