My Artworld Is Bigger Than Your Artworld  THE DOMINANCE OF THE ART MARKET— NOT TO MENTION THE ART OBJECT—IS BEING CHALLENGED BY HACKERS, CODE WARRIORS, AND ARTISTICALLY MOTIVATED NERDS WHO PREFER NETWORKS, WEBSITES, AND $19.95 POSTER SALES TO GLITZY SHOWS AND ART-STAR FAME

finally!!

hey guys, sorry for the HUGE inconvenient delay. I was finally able to upload enough of the site for you to see what I'm going for, although, its definitely still a work in progress. I did it on yahoo sitebuilder, totally from scratch, (I lost all my previous edited files when I lost my external hard drive), and sans templates. On weebly, I was frustrated about the tabs issue that I think Jennings is experiencing, and I didn't like how I couldn't make a link to another page out of an image or text. Or layer elements. As of now only the first two galleries are operable, there's nothing under 'upcoming,' and I still need to edit my resume quite a bit. I would really like to know if it navigates well, and if its simple and professional enough.

I have had a chance to see all of your websites, and I will be posting comments tonight!
Thank you all again for your patience!

reminder - your blogs

This week marks the half-way point of the term.  That means that everyone should have 4 posts on their blogs by now, and at the end of the term a total of 8.  I will not likely assign specific topics for these posts again, so please make sure to stay on top of your writing!

I'm getting there...

Hey guys, I apologize, but due to some outside circumstances, (and the fact that I started on weebly, then realized it wasn't doing all I wanted it to, so I decided to stay with the original program I had) I'm lagging on having my new website ready, :( but I'll have it all caught up this weekend. Thanks for your understanding and patience!!
