Today our group made titles and started to work on our pages. I made the main title for our page and the “about us” page using Photo impact. I learned that you can insert cool pictures and make the fonts really cool! I found out how to make a title, just by fiddling around and looking at different links. Next lesson I want to finish and make more titles. i think the more I get to know Photo impact the more I can learn on it. We got all of our pictures from www.justhockey.com.au.

Today my job was to finish the titles for our website. In total we made 5 titles, and a background. (On photo Impact XL). My goals/goal for next lesson is to get every title finished, and that our main page is starting to come together. I truly think that we are making great progress with all of our jobs. Tye has done some great things on the main page, adding pictures and backgrounds.

Today we got all the titles done! And Tye started to add them onto the webpage. Veronica made a hockey picture for our main page. And Callum was making a video for our page. I tried to edit my picture I drew (in part 1) but my computer kept on shutting down, which was a real pain. We now just have to make the buttons then we will be back on track.  Hopefully our main page will be almost completed by next week!

Today our group started to make the main page. Veronica worked on a video, Callum is writing a letter to Ken Taylor, at the hockey association and Tye is adding our work onto the main page and working on the buttons. I had to try and cut out this image for our main page, for the background, and make it transparent but I am still trying. I feel that we need to working a little bit faster and harder because we are a little bit behind on our main page.

Today we made all of our buttons and Veronica has almost her promotional video. I made a page about “why we chose this topic” and “what’s the problem?” Callum has finished his letter to Ken Taylor and hopefully will be sending it to him soon. Tye has been working really hard making buttons and linking the pages. I feel we are making great progress but now the pressure is on, we only have one more week to fully complete our website.

Today we accomplished a lot of things! I finished the “about us” page. All of the information is now on Tyes computer, ready to be put onto the main page. Callum has almost finished his timeline and Veronica has also so close to finishing her promotional video. We are running really great! I can’t wait to finally get it out for the world to see. And Tye is doing great, same with Veronica and Callum.

5 September
Today is the due/ finishing date for our website! We are almost finished with 10 minutes ticking on the clock. I inserted and edited pictures, and now people are viewing our webpage. We also had to fill out a sheet saying how well each team member contributed during the making. It was a hard to rate because we all worked really well. All we have to do know is add our journals and we are complete. I feel that we have been working really hard and that it’s going to be a great success. And hope we get a good mark!
