:: if you think you are finished make sure your site validates make sure your site works on all browsers & platforms convert your site from html to xhtml
validate it again consider the following:
optimizing your code how can your code be “cleaner”
is there any unnecessary repetition of code? will multiple css files clarify your code?
optimizing the interface/usability of the site does your site have multiple means of navigation?
bottom text nav? breadcrumb navigation for sub pages? do all images have alternate text and/or alt tags? what is “odd” or simply not working in your design? could it be fixed? how?
update your sitemap work on “cleaning up” your sketches for your portfolio entries
consider working on your flash site for Art 257
