Creating a web page
Over the last 2 weeks I have spent a lot of time "surfing" the net looking for sites that may help me to create a web page. I thought I would use the Home Page in FC to practice. It is mind blowing.
I have collected quite a few urls and information and even had a go at creating my own Logo. I have worked really hard at this but as of yet have not drawn it all together and taken the next step.
I was discussing this "brave new venture" on my part with Mike my husband. Mike is a techno whizz but I have avoided asking for any help from him as I need to "learn by doing" rather than be shown. Mike says he is very impressed with how far I have progressed and learned considering I was more basic than a nursery school child at the computer.(my words not his).
There are times when I do feel quite pleased with myself, that is until I peak at other peoples urls or bloggs. This is when my confidence plummets. Others are setting up FURLS/WIKE's etc and I here am I.
I can't even begin to compete and can't help believing that those who are more able will race ahead of me.
I feel I have that even though I am working very hard I have no way of showing this as the evidence will be judged on the submitted work, and I have no way of actually proving that I have put in the work.
My understanding of techno speak or indeed what the activities require is not always clear so I seem to be dragging behind.
I have also discovered that keeping a LJ in this form is making me hold back some of the things I feel and have reflected on.
It seems I can't settled at the moment and am once again considering my future on this cours

A web-page from scratch is way out of my league at this stage - Like you I've looked at many different resources and can do a little bit of HTML (Ps my sister is a wizz too and I want to do things by myself)Don't be intimidated by furls and wiki's - a furl is just a sort of 'favourites' place and the wiki is, well I don't know, but it is a great place to pick up tips and links from. Don't give up, you'll kick yourself if you do.
