Web Design half way point....

So my finals for the first part of my Web Design class are this Thursday night and I am finishing up my last projects. I have to admit that when I came into this class I was excited for all of maybe two weeks. Unfortunately I started to lack motivation in the middle because I started feeling like "This isn't graphic design, this is just typing a bunch of words into a code that makes it show up on the web. I want to do 'Design'." Now that it is the end I am wishing I would not have given up on web design and tried to incorporate both of them together rather than not giving web a chance. Now that I am nearing the final days of the first web class I am starting to get my motivation back and I am hoping that I develop a love for it before the second portion is over.

Web truly is where the money is with developing sites for all aspects of life. People want personal sites, business sites, and some just want to be part of a organized social networking site and want there page on that site to be pretty and you add a "cool" css style sheet to it. I had a project on accessibility this class and until I looked into the research of it I didn't even think about how many people have to find some other method to use for browsing the web. It was amazing to me that there are things we "as web designers" can do to better assist people with disabilities in web browsing. I am glad that I am getting my motivation back and I am looking forward to learning more about web in the second portion of this class.
