Evaluation

I am happy with how my website looks I like my background, sliders and the overall look of the site. I think it is easy to navigate around but I would say that because I designed it. All the headings and text are easy to read and all the links work there are no dead links. I think I have come along way since the first year and I have incorporated the skills I learnt in the first year to this site.

On the promotional side of things I now know more about the cost of running a domain name and printing costs that I didn't know before doing this. Once I am able to get home broadband installed at home I will certainly purchase my own domain name to promote myself on the web. I haven't yet decided on my career path after university I would either like to set up on my own as a freelance graphic/web designer or work in a design studio. I think at this moment in time with the economy like it is and businesses closing down all the time, the best thing to do would be to work with a company for an amount of time to gain experience and to build my portfolio up. This way I could get to work with clients from the start instead of building up my own client base. I also like the studio environment having worked in one previously. I work better in a team environment than on my own. So I think that is what I would like to do start off in a company or studio and work there for a certain amount of time before thinking of setting up on my own.

I still have a year and half at university before I have to go out into the big wide world. So I just intend to carry on like I have been doing and work has hard as possible whilst at university to get the best grades I can to help me get the career path I am after.
