Your Homepage & Personalizing It

Make it your own!

Add some personality to the page. Things you can include:

  • A short bio
  • Your favourite websites, with links
  • Lists of things you're a fan of such as movies, books, music, sports, etc.
  • Other pictures

Optional: simple CSS

You may want to add a bit more style to the page. We'll get into CSS next week, but for now, within the <style></style> tag in the <head> of the document, add these two bits of code:

body {font-family: Gill Sans,Gill Sans MT,
Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 16px; color: #444; background-color: #ccc;}

#box {width: 700px; padding: 25px; margin: 0 auto;}

Now, within the <body></body> tag, you'll need to add one more tag and an attrribute. This goes right after the opening <body> tag:

<div id="box">

And this goes right before the closing </body> tag:

</div>

Republish

Remember to republish the whole thing (including any new images) when you're done!
