Hello all,

I just finished working on my last project for Interactive Media I. This might have been my absolute favorite project. All of the projects were great, but I think that this is my favorite project because I can use it. I’ve been meaning to learn Danish and maybe sometime after I am completely finished with it I can sell it. Anyhoot, here’s a link to it: http://students.southernlabs.net/tricialorentzen/QuizSite/

There are a lot of things that I want to work on to make it perfect and more user friendly. I’ll work on it during break

I was planning on doing the French club website, but their club is having a few difficulties. Since that didn’t work, I emailed a former German teacher of mine to see if she had a German club, but I hadn’t gotten a response. I really wanted to work on a German club website but there wasn’t a German club on the list, I was just hoping that even though it wasn’t on the list it would still be an option. Through all of the searching I have finally found a club that I can make a website for. I will be creating a site for the Preach the Word club. Since they don’t have a logo I will create one for them. I’m so excited! I enjoy making logos I will have the logo posted on Wednesday or sometime after I speak with the president of the club.

I have been meaning to post more during the weeks, but have been either too busy with homework or too lazy. There are some things that I need too work on for the form landing page before I post it. My apologies.

Just a reminder, the form is just an assignment for the site. Here’s the link to the landing page form that I’m working on

Hello.

Later on today I will have a link to my Hygge Te landing page. What I added to it is a form so that people can get a free cup of tea (it’s fictional, just a project for my Interactive Media class). I used javascript coding.

Enjoy.

The center: Seasonal Special.
This season we have a new flavor of tea

with a hint of cardamon and nutmeg.

The landing page project: a cafe theme.
The teacher said to come up with a cafe that we, the class, would like to go to or hang out at.
I created a logo for the cafe landing page that is based on the 18th century.
In 2009 I went to Den Gamle By (the old town/city), a real village from a place in Aarhus, Denmark. I was fascinated by how people from that century lived and how they came to the traditions that they have. There was a tavern that served hot chocolate and other warm drinks. When this assignment came up I thought of the little tavern.
The name of the cafe that I created is Hygge Te. There is no translation for Hygge in English, but the closest thing to it is “cozy”. A way that they Danes would have Hygge, during the Winter when it’s freezing and when they only have 4 to 5 hours of sunlight, would be by sharing warm drinks like tea, coffee, or hot chocolate and to light several candles. So, in essence, the name of my cafe in English is “Cozy” Tea.

Nu er jeg færdig!  Skål

What did I do today?  I added the following to my website: logo with margins in css, i put in a banner (a picture that I had taken), the footer with my contact information, i added the 2 icons to the footer (practiced what kinds of link I should have in the icons), I added a menu with contact form and 4 pictures for portfolio in the work link, i moved the search field in css, etc.

JEG ER NÆSTEN FÆRDIG!!!!  TAK FOR HJÆLPEN, SKAT

Since my logo is a Viking ship, I gave my background a picture of the ocean (I took it when I was in Vesterhavet, Denmark).  I chose to make my logo with a Viking ship because the first Christmas that I spent with my boyfriend (now my husband) he gave me a beautiful necklace with a Viking ship.

Sometime today I will add more stuff to my website.  I have yet to add the projects that I have made.
