brief final notes
Just a few quick things for your final version.
- Please review the Zen Garden sumbission guidelines, and make sure you have gone through the items in the bulleted list on your own site.
- You have certainly noticed that the sample html code provided by CSS Zen Garden has a list of 8 side links under the heading "Select a Design." In the html, the code looks like this:
<h3 class="select"><span>Select a Design:</span></h3>Please make sure you replace these links (which go no-where) to actual zen garden designs that you like, or used as a guide, etc. This is the only place where you are able to change the HTML page.
<!-- list of links begins here. There will be no more than 8 links per page -->
<ul>
<li><a href="/" title="AccessKey: a" accesskey="a">Sample #1</a> by <a href="http://www.mezzoblue.com/" class="c">Dave Shea</a> </li>
. . . . . - If your group is using images or code borrowed from a site that does not allow for free borrowing or does not know that you are using the image, you must reference the artist/photographer somewhere in the page. Because we are not adjusting the html, I suggest you do this in the CSS code by typing something like the following:
/*If the images are your own, you can also state as such. I also suggest you do this for any fonts you have found and images taken from free image depositories. Place the text at the top of the CSS page, and be sure you have the /* and */ as they comment-out the text, making it illegible to the browser but visible to a viewer of the style sheet. You may think covering out tracks like this is waste of time, but issue of ownership is one that Dave Shea (the creator of CSS Zen Garden) and some of the designers have been dealing with recently. See The Price of Theft by Dave Shea.
Images used in this web page are by [insert name here] and can be found at [insert web page here] and [are or are not] used with the artist's permission.
