My last links assignment was a place where people who were struggling with different types of mental problems could go and seek advice, help and support. I wanted to carry on this theme with my final assignment because I think it is important to help others in a selfish society. I want the colours in the website to represent hope and faith, also enjoyment in the hopes that visitors to the site will want to start enjoying their lives. In the first three links I already have I want to add more information and pictures. In the next two or three pages I will add I want to have stories of survival, more photo graphs, and more support websites to go to.

LINKS ASSIGNMENT - THE SECOND!
Working on this assignment has been a lot of fun because looking back to where I first started this course and what I knew about code and now looking at where I am I feel like I can create something really special. I've always been a big softie for helping people, i tend to help others before myself so I want to start doing some links on a support website for mental illnesses and this will then spill over onto my final website. Linking the pages together gives the website different dimensions. You can go to another place which i feel is symbolic of going to another place in your life. I want to use three images that you can click on which will take you to another page. My friend and I did a photo shoot dressed as angels and i think these images could be used successfully and portray the image of hope.

CODE ART ASSIGNMENT - THE FIRST!
This assignment seems a little overwhelming because I'm not too sure how the whole "use code to create a picture" idea works. I think that something simple yet sophisticate and symbolic will work because there is no use in putting too much detail in it if it's not going to look right. I studied art for seven years in school and I feel inspired by the work of piet mondrain. He does compostitions with lines and colours. I think doing a homage of his work would be a challenging yet rewarding experience. I want to do this in the style of a self portrait using the composition and colours as symbolic elements of who i am.

BASIC CODE ART
http://chompchomp.us/2007/06/25/html/
This is a video of an image being created using code. The basic elements in an image is colours, shapes and lines. Watching this creation was interesting and gave me an insight into what kind of image I want to create and how to create it.
This site is a bunch of text and punctuation put together to form a picture. This showed me how the little things can create a bigger picture. Attention to detail is necessary.
I love love love this art. The colours and composition are inspiring. This has given me a lot of inspiration for my code art work.
