What problems did you encounter while developing your solution? How did you overcome them?
Problems i encountered were figuring out how to change the width and height of the images in the code. Also i had problems figuring out how to align the picture with the text. I overcame these problems by playing around with the codes and see how changing the text changed the outcome of the code, untill i figured out how to align the pics and how to change the size of the images.

What problems did you encounter while developing your solution? How did you overcome them?

-Some problems I encountered while developing my solution were setting up the tags so that when you click on the table of contents it goes to that specific part of the page. Other problems i had were setting up the links to go to the certain websites on the "My fav. Stores" part of the assignment. I overcame these problems by re-reading the assignment and the directions and then looking at the different codes that I wrote and finding where i messed it up.

Thanks - you're all linked up and ready to go!
