The First Big Website Project
Let's now put together all that you've been learning into a meaningful project. Your goal in this project is to make a website about a topic that really interests you. It needs to be informative, beautiful to look at, and easy to navigate. You will need to save your html files and your pictures. Use Google docs, drop box, or a flash drive. Here's what you need to include:
1. A total of at least ten pages.
2. Each page needs to have at least one picture.
3. Each page needs to have at least one sentence of text, not copied from a website, but your own writing.
4. A starting page that links off your main page.
5. Links that go forward and and then wind up back at the start. Make it easy for the visitor to move around.
6. Links to other websites where the visitor can find more information.
7. Use break tags and make the pictures themselves links as well.

Don't worry about fonts, colors, and formatting. We will tackle all that in the next project when we work with style sheets.
Here's an example of what it should look like when you're done.
Here are two videos that show you how to do this project:
