Over the past week I have been focusing on the ambient world style guide and listening to the CD. I have also altered my time planning sheet to work from a Wednesday to Tuesday basis ready for the last couple of weeks at college.
I have created a website template for this assignment something I failed to do on the last one. This saves me a lot of time and effort creating each separate page and hopefully I would have to worry about the pages staying consistent throughout the site. I have tried to make the navigation fool proof by having two links to each page on the homepage and two links to the next page if the user wanted to travel through the site one step at a time.

I still need to work on the sites aesthetics but I wanted to get something up on the net for feedback before we go back to college, because this is on the agenda for our next feedback meeting.
When listening to the Inertia by Glitch I find myself writing things down that are opposite to ambient for the majority of the CD. I can’t stop thinking of Wipeout, the old fast paced futuristic racing game for the Playstation. I am worried about the target audience for this assignment because my opinions and interpretations of the music wouldn’t match theirs.
I have also researched the definition of "Inertia",
“The property of an object to resist changes in velocity unless acted upon by an outside force. Higher inertia objects require larger torques to accelerate and decelerate. Inertia is dependent upon the mass and shape of the object.” www.servomag.com/reference/glossary.htm
I can only think of a spiral galaxy image with bright colours because it is constantly moving, but even that would be pretty obscure to the target audience.

I think you should be using a web-safe font in your style guide. I'm not sure if Garamond is or isn't? Anyone? The body text size needs to be consistent [often it's a bit big].
I didnt even notice the change in the font size because I was concentrating more on the colours matching and everything stayed in the correct place, so I will change this because I agree that is should be the same size.
I have specified for the website that if someone doesnt have the Garamond font then Times New Roman will be displayed witch is very common on PCs. I may change the font to Georgia because I did abit of research and found this to be a sliglty more popular font when reading information off a screen.
