Today's Menu ~ Feb. 16
Good luck on working on your pages!
I have worked on several of your pages. Wanting to make changes? Please do NOT make any changes until you have all the information on the page. THEN you can play with layout. In other words, these pages that I have helped you with can go as is...for we MUST meet this deadline for our sanity's sake!
Please consider using white space on your page...yes, pure white space. Our book is VERY colorful...probably too much color all over the page. Might look at the FBLA page for an example.
Simply your pages where possible...that would help us meet this deadline faster. NO, that does not mean you do not have to write your stories!
Computers are moving slllllooowwww...BUT this one I have been working on is also (laptop in Little Rock). Here's my theory: these files are just huge. Plus, the computer is looking for all links. In hindsight, we should have all used ImagePlacer, for then all the links would be setting in a folder beside the page. THEREFORE, please begin, if you are not, using ImagePlacer.
I have placed some more pics in folders: tennis team, office workers, Christian Club...library workers may still be on the cardreader...
Erin, I forwarded some pics from Mrs. Hogan to you...they have to be taken into PhotoShop...
Casey, I forgot to get Anna's pic yesterday! Did you remember Quiz Bowl?!
Use today also to get the rest of your pics and quotes!
REMEMBER use different faces! Some of you are placing your face and your friend's faces on your pages. While that is flattering...remember our goal is to get as many different faces on a page as possible.
I am still struggling with re-doing pages on Deadlines 2 and 3. No more Online for us! Not until we have a whole lot more training and a very stable Internet connection!
Finished with your pages? Then begin proofing! That is a very important step that we haven't even started!
SPELLCHECK! Spellcheck everything...even captions!
Party on Thursday! Please plan on spending the entire day on Thursday with me! Would not be a good day to miss! Make plans to be at school the entire day on Thursday! Goal: to leave with
Deadline 4 finished...as in, history!
Call me if you need to. I am in a meeting today and will check in with you. Will return your phone calls at break.
Good luck!
