So, I thought I'd do a little HTML experimenting with my blog, but it turns out I don't have to. Blogger has all sorts of great features...there's an HTML editor that lets you do things the hard way, then there's the "compose" screen that lets you do everything the easy way. To make the above picture visible, all I had to do was save the image to my computer, then click on the "add image" button and upload it to my blog. I did try it the hard way first; I found an HTML tutorial site and filled out the little 
thing, but I had trouble finding jpg or gif pictures on the web. The above picture for example...I copied and pasted the url address in between the quotation marks, but nothing happened. I'm still having trouble figuring that out.
The above picture, btw, is what I would like to be for Halloween. My boyfriend and I, huge nerds that we are, are going as Zelda and Link. I'm having trouble putting together the costume. I should be worrying more about comps.
Anyway, I was worried about the whole HTML thing for my website project, until my professor suggested using Google Pages. This is a simple WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) website creator which has some fairly attractive options. I think this is what I'm going to go with for my project; I simply don't have the resources to pay for DreamWeaver or another expensive tool, and Google Pages is the first free option I've seen that I like.
