What challenges did you encounter when creating your product?
Some challenges i faced was getting my flash animation to work on my actuall webpage. When i uploaded it it just showed me a small message saying to upgrade to the newer version of adobe. But i never really knew if it were to work on the actual live view of my webpage.

How did you cope with these challenges?

I couldnt really do anything about it. At the end i had post my snapshot of my project and decided to make a small description next to the image about what the animation was supposed to do.
What went particularly well in creating your product?

What i think went particulary great on my portfolio was makking the links to the other pages & keeping my webpage neat and orginized. You teached me how to make links and before this you taught me how i could keep my folders nice and orginized in place. Because of this, i was able to locate my folders easier and it made it easier to find my stuff and make links. IT WAS LIKE A DOUBLE WIN!
If you were to redo the project from the very beginning, what would you do different?

If i were to redo my project the only thing i would change is my background and the font colors. Because the background is ccomposed of many bright colors i was unable  to find a font  color that would match the back ground, even if i made my letters in bold it didn't help. So, because of it i would change the color to make it a single color or a color that could be combined with other different colors.
What is something you can take from this project that can aid you after its completion?
I think something that will aid me in future completions is the mini lesson of how to make links. I learned that it is really easy but if you move your files everything can get messed up. Also that really long speech you gave me about keeping all my files orginized before i start on my webpage.

SELF EVALUATION:

What challenges did you encounter when creating your product?
When i was creating this project i had alot of problems with my computer in the soft wear. On the illustrator softwear my project wouldnt save and when ever i tried to save it my computer would freeze and i had to restart the whole computer.
How did you cope with these challenges?
i had to ask the teacher for help every minute this happened. i also tried to restart the whole think that way it could have a fress start. But none of this worked it just made it worse.
What went particularly well in creating your product?
What i think went particulary well in this projects was that i had remembered every single skill on illustrator. I finally found out how to make a gradient on my images.I even learned new stuff i never knew how to do.
If you were to redo the project from the very beginning, what would you do different?
i wouldv'e liked to have a whole new computer or something i couldve finished my project with better.
What is something you can take from this project that can aid you after its completion?
i think the matter of using my time wisely and paying attention to what im doing.

Specific design

Specific design:


-a poster made on illustrator
- the image is scalable but i made it specifically as a "9x11"in.
- cannot be too small due to the thickness of some lines. (then they wont be very visible)
-should make the viewer reflect over their lives with technology devices and realize that it is true.
-the lines on the page of the image should be equally distributed within that part of the image.
-the notebook must have a red and raspberry color gradient at a 90 degrees linear.
-on the left side left side of the notebook the flap should be solid black and must have good words of motivation.
-There must be signs and keywords of the word technology devices 
- must be made in separate layers and at the end joined together into one layer.
-the back ground must be a mixture of light green and a dark green gradient at an angle of 45 degrees.
- the whole image should not cover the whole page, some of the background color must be visible.
