Project03 Final - Reno Cloud Fest

[YoAdrian!]

Yay! Looks like we made it! look how far we've come...ok I'll stop singing the song no one remembers.
I ventured into the world of Wordpress for my Project03. I know it was silly, but I really wanted to learn it, so I gave it a shot. All the links work, except the fictitious social media buttons that go nowhere and the "explore" or "find out more" buttons on the Events page that are just for show. Hey, but the form works...yup I emailed myself a lovely letter.


Reno Cloud Fest
https://www.grc275.com/student/fall-202 ... ordpress/

Reno Cloud Fest is a fictitious festival that I feel should be real. Every person that I've told "hey, I'm creating a website for Reno Cloud Fest..." they automatically say, "Cool, when is it? I want to go!." So I think that's a good sign. I tried to keep the design simple as I was learning the new program and all it's cool picadillos. I'm really impressed with a lot of the functionality, but it's definitely not user friendly. You have to know what you're doing, and I'm forever grateful for what I've learned in this class to help me understand what the program was doing. When it wasn't functioning correctly, I could go into the code and force it by saying "No you meany...I want a 100px margin there...so do it!"

The 8 pages to my site are:
Home, About, Events, Cloud of the Day, Gallery, Contact, Get Involved, Maps

Thanks for looking, and have a great winter break everyone.

Really like how consistent your page is. Like the flow of your website is pleasing to scroll through. This website really impresses me.

This looks really good, I like your use of layout and color, I might have changed the font a little bit. Great job!

Great thematic website Johnna, that cloud of the day is amazing! Did you take that photo or enhance it in any way? I think that if you kept this site served on the world wide web, you could generate followers. Perhaps an on-site FTP portal where viewers could upload their cloud pics.....
Have a great winter break!

Johnna, Way to go putting your site on Wordpress, I know the extra time for the new learning was immense. Your site makes me joyful. I think I would make the text under the logo the same color as the clouds, that way you will not lose the dark text on the dark part of image.
You will be amazed how much a cloud weighs. Your image choices are capturing.
