the internship seeking activities you are doing

Currently I’m keeping my ears to the ground, but not looking for anything actively. I’m fulfilled with my current work, and there are plans to assist development outside of the course as well.

the internship work you are doing

The work that I have been doing is intense, but it’s getting down there! Whittling away at hours is exhausting, but just gotta keep going to the end! No giving up here!

the experiences you are having

This past weekend was filled with work to get the sites looking ready for the portfolio night! It was a lot of adjustment of what I had already done; making sure elements looked good across devices, understanding more about the Contact Form’s functionality, and a bunch of cosmetic work to prep before the reveal on portfolio night. It’s hectic, but going through the website with the client gives me insight on what I need to focus on the next time I create a website, or copy for a website for that matter.

mini tutorials or examples of work you did

Did you know that when you display card payment options on a website, that those graphics have to adhere to design language standards set by the credit card companies? Don’t fret, there are some great free resources available for you here:

It was awesome to find this as it saved me a lot of time in production of the icons on the contact form. The best part? The resources I selected from that list were free-to-use with no attribution necessary. As an artist, I still did leave attribution in the Alt-Tags, but it makes the website look more cohesive when an element does not have to have visible attribution associated with it.
