Finishing Touches

Posted by Chantelle Davis on Friday, May 25, 2012, In : The Website and Blog 

The final assignment involves polishing up our websites. For those who have stayed on top of their work this is an easy thing to do, although they are also likely to want to add as much as possible to increase their mark so I wouldn't be surprised if they too were using the last few days to finish their website.
