For your first assignment, you are to create your own home page that will be placed on the Web. In addition to telling the world about you, your home page will serve as a central repository of Web-based applications that you develop over the semester.

The layout and content of your Web page are entirely up to you. I encourage you to be creative and produce a document that you are proud to display to the world. At a bare minimum, your page must provide the following:

• Your page must have your name prominently centered at the top.
• There should be several sections to the page (e.g., Personal Info, Hobbies, Favorite Links), each with its own heading. At least one section must have multiple paragraphs in it.
• Your page should perform some text formatting (bold, italics, color, BIG) but try not to overdue it to the point that the content is compromised.
• You should include a favorite quote (e.g., a poem or line from a movie) using a BLOCKQUOTE element.
• There should be at least one list (e.g., your top-ten favorite CDs).
• There should be at least 5 links in the page, including a link to the Creighton University page and to the CSC 551 home page. At least one of those links must occur in a sentence.
• There should be at least 2 images in the page, one of which must be stored locally along with the Web page.
• Your page should have its location and last modification date displayed at the bottom. View the source for this Web page and cut-and-paste the appropriate text into your page in order to accomplish this.
• Your page must make use of a style sheet that defines basic formatting style. The style sheet should be defined in a separate file and linked to your page.

In class next week, we will review the process of uploading your home page to a Web server (by default, the Creighton University server on puffin.creighton.edu). If you would like to know how to do this on your own, see the HowTo Basics page that is provided for the CSC 107 class.
