W05: Site Design

 

I found this so far my favorite part of the class to date. I have done some research on how to use wordpress to design my site and watched some youtube videos. I had a lot of fun for the most part. I did run into a couple of problems while trying to design my website. I ran into what is called the White Screen of Death. It is literally what it sounds like. Your website is just a white screen. It took me quite a bit of time to fix it and I still have no clue what I did to get rid of it. Other than that I really enjoy designing my website so I spent some time playing around with it, probably too much. I think it will take some trial and error to get things the exact way I want it and to learn what works and what doesn’t. I am also trying to learn from the big businesses to learn what they did and copy some of the great ideas from them.
