Alpha Report
The shell is complete-content-wise. To add the France section would be masochistic-I don't have the time.
Other than pointing out the few spelling errors the stories contained, Christina said my project needed style-sheet work, and I agree-I just wanted to get the hard part over with. Now the tweaking begins. She also suggested I maybe reformat the family tree page into an actual "tree", but I don't know yet. That's a Beta-Release issue.
Alex thought the linking strategy was great-the documents flowed into each other smoother. My linking strategy is that the first word of every document links back to the previous page. Every word that is a link includes a story related to the meaning of that word. One of them was a stretch-I made "wife beater"link to a story on cigarettes.
Christina also suggested to not overkill each page with pictures-some don't need as many. The stories where I describe the landscape and architecture need to have a visual aid, but the little-vignettes about the dogs and cigarettes do not.
Both suggested changing the font, and I am in the process of doing so.
The storm has been weathered. Now its time to clean up the debris and organize. I hope I can get the majority of this over and done with before Thanksgiving. And I hope my mother mails me the pictures, otherwise I'm using placeholders.
This is the *unedited first draft: I have since made changes to the documents on my USB drive. If you have any further suggestions, feel free to post them.
*so I changed the header size to reduce the grain, but the rest is unchanged*
