CSS Learning Points

I liked learning CSS, because it made the boring website look so much better, and essentially thought me something I knew would be useful and really wanted to learn. The shell of the website was easy compared to this, as the colour codes and all messed me up for a while. I liked that I had learnt how to decorate a website, which transformed a simple text "file" into a real website with a website. I would hace hesitated to call the plain white text a website without this crucial element in every website. I found that CSS livened up the website a lot. The CSS challenge was enjoyable and educational, as although the process itself was boring, the thought of what I was learning, which was what I had wanted to learn all along, spurred me on. The idea that I would soon be able to edit my blog significantly, and from scratch, excited me somehow. This IT skill of formatting websites is useful in many cases, for both personal, and schooling reasons. I could use it to edit my own blog, or create an interesting website for Projects' Day. I do realise, however, the extent and limitations of what I have been taught, and know that I cannot really create a fantastic site with cool buttons and graphics, for this course is very basic and only thought me the, well, basics.
