Your website will be made up of four pages:
- An index page – this is the first page that people see when they type in your website address.
- A portfolio page – this is where people will view your online portfolio of images.
- A links page – here you will create a list of links to other websites/blogs etc that you enjoy looking at.
- A contact/info page – this is where you will show your contact details (eg. email address) and also have a link to your CV.
This first lesson will be a brief introduction to the basics of Dreamweaver:
- How to open a basic html page
- Viewing the properties box
- Inserting text
- Inserting a table
- Viewing your page using a web browser such as Firefox or Safari
The second half of the lesson you will have a chance to finish your artist book, update your blog or start looking around the web for inspiration for your own online portfolio. Remember you will need to keep your website simple and easy to navigate, however there is still room for creativity!
*For this exercise your website will never actually be uploaded to the web, however you will be creating a fully functioning website. To upload your site to the web you will need to purchase both a domain name and web hosting. This is something you may want to think about in the future.
