CITS F222: Reflection #1

If you are new to web publishing, what was harder than expected? What was easier?

I am not all that new to web publishing having done it for a while but there has been a long break for me and this format of dreamweaver is new for me. I rather like how they make everything easier with the various CSS and titling options.

If you've done this kind of thing before, what do you differently?
Include both your first experiences with Dreamweaver and blogging.

I can see really building the site itself from dreamweaver itself. I know that sounds weird but with the older versions I would build the imaging of the site with Fireworks and then importing that image and creating the links from there. This version of Dreamweaver really seems to allow for more complicated webdesign done very easily.
As for blogging I have been doing it for years however I have taken a very long hiatus from it. I just fell out of the habit with some other issues coming to the forefront. I do enjoy following other blogs particularly in the travel and cooking fields though.

The process you describe (prototyping of a site in a graphics editor like Fireworks and then implementing in something like DW) is actually pretty common. But it is nice that DW has more capability so that the two-step process is less necessary than before!
