the server. Page is properly titled. May have changed fonts and played
with colors .

(Today and onward) Before moving on, using a separate
sheet of paper, make your chart for possible links. This may change
along the way, but you need a plan. Below the chart write briefly
what each linked page will be about. (Counts for 600 words.)
-
The first five links you make need to be to pages you
create yourself (75-100+ words -- counts for 600 words!). After
that, you may link to (appropriate) sites.
-
You may surf for information, but if you use any, you must
give credit and a link to that site at the bottom of the page.
-
Do not copy/paste without using quotes and a credit,
and
if you do, the words do not count toward the 75-100 needed.
-
Pictures are fine. Do them last. But give credit, and a link
to the site where you got the picture.
