So I was having some issues re-doing my index page to standard naming. This biggest issue was the face I did my index page using tables since I created it during my first quarter. I never had a need to change to it to divs. Til now. The stupid navigation images would not cooperate! They had this space between each image and it would not go away even though everything was 0'd out. The fix ended up being adding a float: left to the nav_main id. Seems a bit like rigging it in maybe not the best way but it worked.
I switched CSS sheets with Adam and Nick. It's obvious that we design our CSS pages around how we want our content laid out. So using the other CSS pages made my page very long since nothing was lining up next to each other. I think the swapping CSS sheets is nice in theory but not so much in application.

Week 2!
So I found this homework fairly frustrating. Which apparently was part of the point of the assignment. My problem I find is that I know how to arrange the content sans style. My problem comes with the styling. Knowing all the proper code, floats, widths, heights, to achieve the desired look.
I've never been that great in tackling something completely unknown. My brain can't bust out of what it currently knows. I am definitely no inventor. BUT as soon a I see an example of the new concept I'm then able to go and apply it and morph it from there.
I am so brand new still in this whole field. I will admit I didn't even know what a CSS sheet was until the first day of Fundamentals of Web Based Programming 6 months ago!

Yay Intermediate Web Design!!!
Let's see, we're supposed to use this space to discuss our progress in this class or just vent about what is bugging us in the multimedia realm.
Right now I'm mostly bugged by how overwhelming the entire subject is. There's so much possibility in every aspect and with everything changing so fast it's hard to know where to start and what you should focus your time on. I have a deep fear of wasting time doing something one way just because I'm unaware of the better way.
I have no idea how to overcome that.
