Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner? Notes about building pages When selecting photos from Google, use smallest size pictures NOT largest. Large files will not fit on your disk. Simply ‘copy’ and ‘paste’ When writing bios, do not plagiarize or copy and paste! Quotes must be word for word and in “QUOTES” Save things only to the “A” Drive and YOUR floppy. Otherwise you will not ‘save’ your materials. When you locate material on the web, copy web address and immediately paste to your bibliography page.
