I have to start thinkin about my assignment. I have a basic idea of how I want
the site to end up looking. It will be plain, consisting of 3 colours, black
and white and a little of red for that contrast. From my research, I find many
of such colour schemes in Tschichold's work. I understand the use of the colours
because of cost and the technology at that period. Hence I will use these colours.
The dimension has to be such.

I was trying to use a new css property :first-letter. For some reason, I could
not get it to work the way I want.

I spent nights on my flip book authoring script. I wonder if I could place it
in my gallery for this assignment. Also I find the finished site that I have
right now does not really scream out Tschichold. So, I have decided to create
a grayed collage as a backgrounf picture. An old techique that I considered
'my finest' back in my secondary school days. It should work well for this assignment.
It brings a little of that nostalgic feel to it.
Week 17
06/08/06
Tomorrow is the submission for this assignment. I am having problems with my
internet connection. I will have to get it fixed by tomorrow morning or try
doing the uploading in school. Yes! Finally the semester is over for this module.
The other modules will end as well. It has been hectic these few weeks. It will
stay hectic for the coming studio project but at least it will be something
different.

I am making final touches for submission later today. There is no more time
for major changes. How come the best ideas always come last?
