The purpose of this assignment is to create a portfolio website, which will be updated through the semester. Your grade for this assignment will be for the setup you do before we start other assignments.
Take the time and care to create your design now so that you have a clear idea of what you need to do later. Consistency is your best friend when it comes to visual design of webpages.
It is suggested that you use Google Sites to complete this assignment, however, you may use whatever tools you desire. If you choose NOT to use Google Sites, please inform me as soon as possible so we can work out how I will get access to your website.
Your website must contain the following pages and information:
After this is done, you must include me as an editor on your website.
Your grade for this assignment will be determined by the following criteria:
If you're looking for some inspiration, you can check the following websites. You won't be able to copy them exactly, but you can strive to use some of the design aspects in your site.
WordArt - Used to create word cloud images online
Paletton - Online colour picker that helps you choose consistent, complimentary colours for your website.
Example Portfolios - These guys are REALLY good. Use their choice of colours and placement of objects to help you create something beautiful. Don't worry about the crazy effects they put on their pages.
More Examples - These are minimalist. Easier to emulate from a design standpoint.
