Logo's R Us

My time planning has started to get a bit more organised now since the talk last week, I was trying to get a set day to do my college work and as I never work during the day on Mondays I thought this was a good choice. I managed to choose 4 designs which I was fairly happy with when I sketched it in my sketch book but when using Freehand to design the images I wasn't really happy. They had to do anyhow until I get chance to be more confident in Freehand.

When others was showing their logos on Wednesday I was pretty impressed with all designs that others had showed and didn't feel mine was of good standard when the first few logos was shown. I am still a bit unsure of my final design as when i'm at work during the day and the shop is quiet I take a note book and sketch ideas and working in retail you get a lot of ideas from looking at labels and packaging of products, and whlist doing this I designed some good logos but just have to see how they look in Freehand, during the holidays I hope to have some up on my blogger.

I also got my result for the "Builder" assignment, I stated before I knew I was going to get a referal and I did. Some things I could tell Steve what I knew I had failed on but he did point out some other things. This is the first thing I am going to do over the holidays I fell I need to create the whole site again basically but looking on it as a postive way as it will give me more experience in creating websites.

On a lighter note, I have been asked by the company I used to work for to help teach a class on website creation. They teach members of community groups the basics of each of the Microsoft Office package to help their community groups like using Publisher to design flyers and posters, or Word to type up their minutes and agendas. But now they are wanting to set up websites for the groups and I got asked to help. I've to get a presentation ready on the basics of Frontpage (not the ideal program but its all i've got to work with) which I ain't really looking forward to after using Dreamweaver. But the classes will happen every week until they need me for a few hours a week.

Hope you all have a happy easter and enjoy the break.
