Well I started this webpage as a class project, as it is right now, and I decided that it needed to be sufficiently flashy, as it would be rather pointless to make a non-flashy page. Well I began with a rough idea for a menu bar, more of an alien influence to it, but that soon transformed into reality, as the idea was soon unable to be made into reality, as it "wasn't going to happen". Sooner or later, however, it came into existence and I was on my way to completing my webpage. The topic was easy enough to gather, videogames, what I do with my spare time, and the section took a bit of thinking on my part but quickly took shape. The question then came, "What color(s) should I use?" Well yellow was way too bright and green as well. Black was too cliché' and too simple, no flash to it. Red would do nicely except I LOATHE the color red, it just not....pretty....anyways, orange was out because it was usually too dull and throughout all the colors I also had to think of color on color, which was increasingly more difficult. I finally settled with blue. Not just BLUE, however, but many shades of blue, blue after blue after blue. Aqua, Turquoise, Burgundy...err...no wait. The background was easy made, I wanted to do some cool paint splatter and liquid effects for it that are in freehand but that quickly killed itself because they are hard to make match to the point that they would look good tiled, you can barely see the lines of where the background image is tiled with the current one. Slap in a little green and a cool looking logo made with awesome fonts, which they are really cool (again thanks to 1001fonts.com 'cause their fonts are freaking awesome!!!). So I settled with blue and it's now wonderfully, wonderfully, blindingly, blue, it's great!!! But then I saw another student's webpage...it was simple, to the point, and it honestly looked great, so great in fact that it kicked my webpage in the pants, hard, and my webpage fell over, grabbing its pants, and screaming in pain, and so on and so forth...and. So I then decided that my webpage looked like crap and it was time to redo it altogether, so I borrowed the idea, with this student’s knowledge of coarse. Well, to be perfectly honest, there wasn't really a lot I borrowed other than the fact that it was far simpler, and I also like the way his buttons were arranged, so I borrowed that too. The next task was to choose a center picture, I could borrow the other guys center image for my website, and I wouldn't have either because it wasn't really going along with my webpage, and I also really love the particular font. Well I made the center image, and after getting home, decided to spice it up a bit, which it now is >:). Anyways, so then I just had to do what I did before, copy and paste the front page to all subsequent pages, fairly easy, but a lot of "save as" usage. Add in what content I had before and KABLAMO, it looked cool, and had something in it, as well as a new piece to this article as leaving it the same would result in a bit of confusion, and I wasn't about to have confusion on my hands, no-sir-ree-bob. Well, then I added more to it....like I'm going to go do now....or now......maybe now.......possibly now.....I'm really thinking about now......now seems pretty good.....etc. etc.
