TASK 7- Changing the information into planned fonts, handwriting and colors.
October 14 2013
12:00 pm- 12:30 pm (5:00pm-7:00pm)Today I changed all the information I had, on this page into handwritings, fonts and colors. I had expected this task to be very easy, but unfortunately, it turned out to be the most difficult and frustrating task I have ever done till now. It was difficult and frustrating mainly because of the slow internet connection. A small picture was taking around 5-7 mins to upload on www.weebly.com. I got very annoyed during this task. During the plan stage I had expected this task to take half an hour, but this task took up to two hours for various reasons.
Slow internet connection. This issue was the main issue why this task took that long. Due to some connectivity issue, this task (which was supposed to take half an hour) took around 2 hours to complete since pictures were taking very long to upload and saving the current work also took around 7-8 mins.
Outings. As mid term was going on, sudden outings were expected. Our family, and I went to our friends house for lunch at 12:00 (the time I was supposed to do this task). So I had to move the time to 5:00 to 5:30 (due to obstacles, 5:00-7:00) and I was very frustrated as I wanted to follow my plan very strictly.
Lack of proper planning. In task 5, I mention that I had found a column option which made my website more organized an easy to make. Unfortunately, this column option did not work as well as I had expected it to. The problem was that I had put the information in paint and then upload it as an image in weebly, and the image appearing on weebly was very small. If I made the image bigger, then the space for the picture would reduce. This obstacle really frustrated me. I wanted to start afresh and I did it. I deleted everything on that page and started all over again. But this time I did not use the column option. I put the information and the picture below as this looked more organized and the information was also readable. This depressed me a lot, since I wanted to follow every single detail of my final design.
So these, were the challenges I faced while doing this task. Frankly, I did not enjoy anything while doing this task. The screenshot of my blank page and my final page (second page) is below:
