Well today my first day of highschool wasn't bad. It sounded really easy, and since both of my sisters (one graduated the other a senior) gave me tips on all the teachers, I was really comfortable. I do think my FAVORITE class will be graphics/webmastering. It will be focused on Photoshop 7/DreamWeaver. I know some of Photoshop, and I've never used DreamWeaver but I think I will enjoy it. Besides that, I have Physical Science, Geometry, World Geography, Engish I, and Study Skills. Easiest from hardest, it will probally be P.E., Graphics, Study Skills, English I, Geometry, World Geography, and Physical Science. Anyways, shouldn't be a hard year, most of these subjects I am already somewhat familiar with.

All in all, my first day of school wasn't at all bad, just boring.

Just in high school? Youngen'! Dreamweaver is a great tool for web-design, but don't use it as a crutch for lacking HTML/CSS skills. As for photoshop, it does the job, but make sure to learn many art programs. PortableGIMP is a great tool for the web-designer on the go(Mix it with NVU for some WYSIWYG editing on the go).

Other than that, don't expect to learn a ton from these classes. I have learned more in a week really designing websites for consumers than I did in the two semesters of web classes.

Yeah, I didn't plan to. These are both introductory classes, so I probally know most of what I am going to learn, but I still think it should be fun creating graphics and websites ect.

Webmastering ain't too hard to do when it comes to making websites. Photoshop isn't a bad tool to use either. ;)

I took Webmastering last year and passed it with every A, every six weeks.

I studied Dreamweaver my Freshman year as well, my faveorite one. Alothough it was one of the last I did, Computer class was a great time.
