POST MORTEM NOTES

That's it, the project is finished. I am somewhat disappointed with my work.

There were several mistakes made that make me feel especially unhappy.

First of all, I did not check the roots of files used in my project. This caused problems whilst burning a CD. Repairing was time-consuming and difficult. I can see that a clear and organised directory for files is a must! Secondly, it took me a while to finish editing a poster in inDesign. I overrated my flexibility and I am not entirely happy with the effect I gained.

Thirdly, the address of my host server does not work properly! I checked my account and they sent me a note that they would be closing down soon all accounts but they did not state when. I know it is too late but I will try to upload my website to another webhost. I opened the following address:
http://thecarrotz.freehostia.com/
hopefully this works better.

To sum up, due to these unlucky circumstances I feel very unsatisfied with the work I submitted. I think I learnt my hard lesson and now I seriously have to develop skills of time management. I know now that producing a digital media piece can be much longer due to unexpected impediments (I have never been so unlucky with technology as this time). Having said that I promise myself to re-0rganise my way of work and time management.
