FINAL Free Website Project

This project needs to be at least 7 pages. All pages need to relate to the central theme, and it needs to be fun to look at.  I'd prefer your project to be something useful to you or a group you are in. (People have created web sites advertising a class they were giving, updated their friend's business web sites, created web sites for their group of friends or a club)

To pick a subject, think of whether you know someone with a small business that could use a website. (If you create one for a business, I will help you figure out how to make it a permanent professional site for them to use. You can also change an existing business website if you first show me the site before it was changed.) If that isn't an option, think of any clubs or groups you belong to that might need a website. If that also isn't an option for you, you can choose any topic you like, including yourself, to make your website theme. You could do a site about your friends, with a page for either each friend, or each group of friends, or a page for each event instead of each friend. You decide the best way to organize it to look the way you want it to look. 
 
The completed site must contain all these requirements:

• Every page must be titled differently from the name of the file.
• Home page:
  • Your home page must be the home page for your site, not just a link to final added to your webcard. (To move your webcard to become a link to your website, see here)
  • Your homepage cannot be the size of more than one screen (so a user wont have to scroll on that page).
  • Your homepage needs a link to your email as well as to most other pages on your site.
• Links to other pages in your site (at least 6 pages), but they don't all have to link directly to the home page.
• Links to other websites
• Every page must link to another page on your site, so you never have to hit the back button.
• At least 4 pages need a navigation bar which links to these 4 pages and stays about the same on each page. It can be as simple as a table you repeat at the top  of each page.
• At least one clickable image
• At least one thumbnail with a smaller picture linking to a bigger picture. The smaller picture must be a different file from the bigger picture. The smaller picture must actually be a small sized picture file, not one that is compressed.
• A background picture
• Link to your e-mail
• A "top of page" link at the bottom of a page
• At least one page created with powerpoint and contain at least 1 web link, slide transition, animation and change to the master slide. The Powerpoint does not need to be converted to html. Click here for a movie on making this presentation.
  
• At least one page created with Word or Excel that includes a picture.  The Word or Excel document must be converted to html using microsoft office's save as html feature. On your website, place two links: one to the document as an office document (.doc or .docx) and another as an html converted file. When a person looks at your site and clicks on the link to the document as html, no microsoft application should open; instead it should show right in the browser. Click here for instructions.
• Use a table somewhere
• You cannot have two pictures with sizes of more than 150KB on the same page. If you have a picture that is more than 150KB, seeing the picture has to be the main point of the page. If you have large filesize pictures on your page, you can instead create thumbnails that the person can click on.
  
• No bmp format pictures are allowed. Use irfanview to convert them to .jpg or .gif.
  
• Also, the background must not make the words too hard to read on any page, even when a link has been clicked and the word color changed. (You can use irfanview to lighten your pictures.)
