A Title for Your Autobiography Page

Hello All

So - you're getting there with the coding for your page. Great.

Wouldn't it be good if you had a cool graphical title or logo at the top?

Well, this week that's the challenge you have: create the logo or title and them embed the picture at the top of your page.

Here are some suggestions for how to do it followed by the success criteria for embedding the picture in your page.


You'll need two or three bits of software to make the picture/logo:

1) Microsoft Powerpoint (Start->All Programs->Microsoft Office 2013)
2) Snipping tool (Start->All Programs->Accessories)



Use Powerpoint to create the image you want (remember how to import pictures, use word art etc?)


Then use the Snipping Tool to cut out the bit you want as the title/logo and save it in the same folder as your webpage. Call it logo.png

This might be the first time you've used the Snipping Tool - see if you can figure out how it works. Or click here for guidance.


Then, go to your web page (in Notepad remember) and then straight after your <body> tag write:

<img src="logo.png">

Remember: when you save your snip, call it logo.png and put it in the same folder as you biography file!!


Good luck and be creative.
