Wow. I've actually found this weeks lesson really challenging! I've always found HTML and CSS stuff really confusing! To me it just looks like a whole heap of mumbo jumbo!!! Though with some exploring I managed to change a few things!
The template option gave me a small selection of options to change from the premade template I chose. Things like colour, font style, font size etc. I used this for the majority of my changes actully- because I was more comfortable with this way- as you could actually SEE what you were changing, as well as it being simple and easy. I changed the background colour, text colour, Side bar and all that jazz!!
Template options will not let you change the general style of your layout and site however...
I changed the font size the HTML/ CSS way to make it bigger. Wasnt as hard as I thought.
I can see that there would be many advantages using CSS- for example, for extra personalisation- to change the very layout of your site- making your own websites- not having to be stuck with boring pre-made templates- fixing glitches in sites etc... I however probably wont use it too often if I can help it!
Accessability is important with a website to make it extra user friendly for the general public. Because the internet is so huge- it is nice and beneficial to be able to make it available and helpful to a wider audience- depending on the contense of the site of course (I think I'm just writing crap now! :P). Eg- having larger font, brigher colours and audio for the visually impaired.
In conclusion- This Blog is done... :D
