This is a blog for those on GCOM 143 module, part of University of Plymouth's Graphic Communication with Typography BA course. Glad you could make it. Here we should be able to put up any relevant info, films and pictures that we want and comment on whatever is up here already.
Only put up things that are directly relevant to this module. We do not want lots of photos of friends on the boat trip - that is what facebook is for! One or two photos/images at a time is best, and sometimes it is just a great way to flag something that's online (you can embed hyperlinks using the symbol next to the T in the toolbar you'll see when you're writing a post).
So remember, this blog is for academic study and sharing our design work and ideas. Please respect that.
For those that are new to blogging there is a bit to learn but the best way is to just click on things and see what happens. However, some features, such as Labels, would be good for us to use from the start, so I'll explain that one quickly.
When you write a post, you can put in a 'label' - if you look below you can see for this 'posting' I have put 'covers' and 'Introduction'. Material thus gets collated and therefore easy for someone in a few weeks time (when there is lots up here) to see all the info on covers, for instance, by clicking on the label 'covers' rather than trawling through all the posts. Make sense?
The best way to learn it is just to try something. So have a go at putting up a new post or a comment and we'll see how we get on. Prize for the first one to add something... and no, I don't know what the prize is yet. Let's just say it's a (sur)prize for now.
