FINISHED!!!!!!!!

I finished! My first ever real website is done and working. I am rather pleased with the end result. The longer you design something the more you tend to hate it. The first few weeks are good. You enjoy the design, you think of little things that are going to make it that much better, you are truly excited to see the end project. Then a few things start to go wrong. You manage to incorrectly save a page causing you to lose a file. You accidently close a page without saving and loose several hours of work. Probably most frustrating, you click on some unknown thing, or just open it up again and all of your positioning is wrong. Three hours later you close it and open it again and it works again... It is times like this were you don't actually like your design. No matter how cool it is it can not make up for a lack of sleep and countless hours of frustration.

Most designers will come to like their work again a few days or weeks after it is finished. However, there are some all nighters that just can't be forgotten. Designs like these you just smile and say thank you when other give you praise or you agree when they give criticism. Lucky for me, I like me website. LIKE not LOVE. I might love it in another week or so. For now all I have to say it "FINISHED!"
