Lesson 1-back to school

Today, I was quite excited due to the fact that we got a portable server thing. The Mowes server. Now i dont need to install things on my new laptop. I played around with PHP and Html and css this lesson. Well, i started off with a basic PHP hello world. First you save it as a index.php then....
<html>
<body>
<?php
echo 'Hello World';
?>
</body>
</html>

Well I think it goes like that....I will start doing more things next lesson. Also, this weekend, I was bored, so I started playing around in photoshop and designing a front page. Unfortunately I got carried away by it and went over board completely.

It has the pages I need, but it looks far too simple and too dark. It is quite silly to expect a university history professor to have such a homepage for his website. However, I rather liked the photo that i blurred the edges of. It was a fun technique. I would like to include that technique in the final website. I quite like the thing on the top of the school website where it goes through a number of photos. Perhaps, i will make that part of my final website also.

I finally took a photo of my notebook containing the planning of the photo gallery layout. I did this during summer but never remembered to take a photo of it. I don't own a scanner, so photos are the best i can do.





This weekend, my dad gave me the website of his current website. It looks rather...plain.
