Duh…

Over the weekend, I was playing around with Photoshop and came up with a really awesome image.  I saved it to .jpg and decided it was so cool I needed to make a website just to use that image on.

I coded the main page of the website, and it was absolutely gorgeous…except for one thing.  My nav was wonky.  Yep…my navigation bar was beautiful, but it wasn’t lined up in the right way.

I thought I tried everything.  Then, I just started clutching at straws.  I attempted stuff with CSS and with HTML.  I opened it up in Dreamweaver and checked everything out.  I just couldn’t see my error.

I guess this was a case of needing to put it down for a day and then approaching it again.  This morning – before I even had my coffee – I opened the code again and inserted a <div, and voila…it was perfect.  Go figure…

It’s amazing how one little tag in the wrong place can mess things up.  I usually go wrong in CSS by leaving off a semi-colon.

Now I can insert my links and make page two.

I think I’m going to use that website for my web design business site since the artwork came out so well.

I’ve been studying for my Adobe ACE certification for Photoshop.  I thought I would do the Dreamweaver cert after that, but now I’m starting to consider taking the tests at the same time.  I’m not sure yet.  This is certainly not the easiest test I’ve ever prepared for.  I guess if it were easy then more people would do it.

I started my Network and Telecommunications Concepts class today.  We’re starting off with voice communications.  Cool.  My first assignment is to write a paper on:

• Rotary and Dual Tone Multi-frequency (DTMF)
• Wide Area Telecommunications Service (WATS) and leased lines
• Private Branch eXchange (PBX) and Centrex
• The layers of the International Organization for Standardization-Open Systems Interconnection (ISO-OSI) model

Yep…I got this…
