Presenting: My website!
I've finally finished all the formatting I wanted to do on my website. It definitely has undergone a huge transformation in the last few days. I feel so comfortable using tables now--that will absolutely transform the way i work on my personal and business websites from now on. I feel like I am not just putting pieces together anymore, I'm actually creating. When I look at my page (and even some pretty professional looking ones), I know exactly how everything works. That's a great feeling. I know that these skills will be invaluable as I begin to work with students and as I organize my portfolio. The ease with which information, ideas, and discoveries are transported and consumed is absolutely astounding. I'm really looking forward to continuing work on websites in the future!

OMG! I really enjoy your color choices. I see that you’re trying to make a “trade” mark by the images that you have posted. I am not sure I know, yet it is very pleasant. How did you create the background? What do images and the funny girl mean? Very good choice of your picture. I think many of us chose pictures for our bio in which we are too serious, and too professional. I think your is the perfect one. You’re smiling and enjoying the moment. Isn’t it?
Your tech assignment page is clear and organized. In your class final project, I wonder if you could add a little description of each of the social network. In other words, the viewer does not need to jump into unless he/she wants, but he/she can read about it.
I also enjoyed your animations. Why did you chose nature? They are great.
Each one of your assignment pages follows the same “pattern.” I really like the colors and how easy is to navegate from one page to the next. It is not confusing and it see how useful it could be.
One aspect that I have written in other classmates and I include myself is related to the font, colors, audio and video “settings” that we choose. In other words, we create our website in either PC or Mac and we think it is going to be like that for others, but when other people view our websites sometimes the colors have been changed, the font is different and the audio and/or video does not work.
I opened your website with my Mac computer and everything works, but once I open the website with my other PC vista, it changed some settings and I couldn’t hear the audio or see the videos.
I think each one of us has to work on making our websites “readable” for all. I invite you and all my classmates including myself to explore that issues.

Thanks for the great comments. The background is a small picture I made using large font versions of the asterisk symbol in MS Word. If no parameters are specified in the html, a background image will tile automatically, I've found. The other images I used were collected from a clip art site that specializes in "retro" designs.
As for the settings from computer to computer--How odd, I designed and tested my site on both my Mac at school and PC at home and had no issues related to audio or video, and the visuals seemed to be fairly uniform. Maybe it was a browser issue? I tested my site on safari and firefox on mac and firefox and internet explorer on windows and saw no issues--which pages had altered settings?
