I think i should really do apologize here to Dr.Neo that i overdo posting some political n personal stuff here.it's removed by now.
since its strictly limiting the role to class assignment.being noticed that i haven't showed much progress here,here is the stuff i have done however on my mind or really concrete been written down.

pre-authoring stage:

software installing is crucial to me somehow in the early stage,it didn't work so well for some reasons. since i never touched adobe design premium cs3 before expect randomly play around with photoshop only few times. the rest of the practice seemed vital for me.so for temporary use,i install the online trial.it helps me really do concern about the time limitations here.im currently still stay in index page.been really confused about the layout how it should be like,cos all these r still new to me.

media managing:

New media folder has been created right away.i know it will be alot html index n frames etc.could really mess up the work u ready doing here.so it's divided into pictures.content,flash,videos...

information gathering:

in pervious proposal, i didn't show much demograhical research on the target audience cos the charts n tables arent easy to find yet.but i did went through those website such as guess n abercrombie,gap, n so on...

these above are all before i start dreamweaver, it is a kick start n now im more concerning about the content n the company name logo which i decided on'neuf'.i should really start using flash n be familiar with it to have a quick design on it.not much time left already.A significant banner is essential to a fashion company webpage.

btw, if i wanted to import an already made picture,should i do citation for it?of course i will edit for it n make it mine. will it be a copyright controversial involved? just asking...

Basic layout, insert video...


as the web page goes on progressed,i started to create page layers n tried to insert graphics n basic tables.i did download the templates n started to decide on the layout,however it wont let me,some online tutorial seemed helped a bit.so i just draft a basic wireframe:

of course before u start,somewhat style of layers u like/dislike based on the site reference found brings u ideas of how urs would look like.

apparently..'header','navigation bar','body','footer' and two 'side bars' will be included in the initiated sketch.very simple layout so far since i just figured how the basic tool bar works.

ps:i found an abercrombie commercial on youtube n i did inserted in it.that was fun.actually u just need to go to'code' and embed the original code into dreamweaver coding part 'remove''copy' and 'paste'.that's all.
so,it actually looks like this:
it's weird i cant put the video below.what's going on?plus one question,if i wanna reduce the size of the side bars of my blog.do i need to change the codes too?where at?
Merci beaucoup...:P
