You've been hired by Midwest Homes to assist in developing their Web site. Dawn Upham, the site manager, has asked you to begin work on the new listings section. She's given you a text file containing information about Midwest Homes and the four new listings for the day. She's also provided you with two version of the company logo (one in JPEG format, and one in GIF format with a transparent background), a background image, image files for the four new properties, and two image files containing thumbnail images of the four new properties - one oriented horizontally, and the other vertically. You are free to supplement this material with any additional resources available to you. Your job is to use this information to design a visually interesting Web site for the new listings.

Once you become familiar with the contents of this proposed site, start designing the site. There should be five pages: a page introducing the new listings, and one page with details on each of the new homes. The name of the intro page should be new.htm, the names of the four listings pages should be r317081.htm, r317082.htm, r317083.htm, and r317084.htm. In your preparations for the site, create a storyboard of the site's contents and links. Make sure that you make your site easy to navigate.

Use one of the supplied thumbnail images to create an image map linking the introduction page to each of the pages describing the new listings. Use a graphics program to determine the coordinates of the hotspots in the image map.

Note: Although the project did not call for it, I decided to make the page look the same in both Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer. I spent a bit of extra time tweaking the styles so that all of the elements are nearly identical in both browsers.
