The Roadblocks Very few, if any, roadblocks throughout the semester Entire experience was smooth sailing, just a significant amount of work
The Successes Overall, both of us have been very pleased with how the site has come out A huge amount of attention to detail went into making sure that everything on the site fit really well thematically The aggregation system, a huge roadblock in one of my projects 2 semesters ago was implemented incredibly easily this time
The Take-home This semester I managed to get a lot of practice in with my CSS3 skills Had to learn a bit more HTML to get everything in top shape
The Loves & Hates Pretty much any task related to web design was quite a bit of fun I had a decent amount of leeway this semester to do what I thought would look good and I am happy with the end result The non-web design related tasks were fairly monotonous Cleaning up the tag cloud, verifying links, etc.
