Coding. Week 4

My third week started with creating new templates for the email blast. Changing the position of logos, artworks and making the artwork to be linked to the website with particular cloth design. Important to mention that the process of uploading the design pieces take up to 1 hour as the template in the Mailchamp program which the company uses do not have the fixed containers with the same width and height.

After I upload the logos, link the artwork, underneath goes 6 containers with the suggested clothes to buy for days, boys and girls. As the images are of different sizes the containers look unproportionate. After a couple of people unsuccessfully tried to create an email blast through coding in HTML and SCC I took my turn to try. The page was working successfully while it opens in a Broder, ( we tried different browsers) however while we inserted code too Mailchamp it made some changes such as font size and placement, as the code had the bootstrap links and code elements to it to have a responsive design for every device the Mailchamp seen it as for phones scene only. Even I was so close to fixing the problem with coding it still was unproportionate to use.

All in all, it was a great experience to remind myself the coding process, and sharing the process I had that great feeling that I can use the knowledge I thought will never use and get much father in coding than my team. Also, the feeling of proud and satisfaction comes just for a moment when you upload the file to the Broder and everything looks as it should look, and what disappointment at the end when it dissent look properly in the MailChimp. Never the less, I did my main design task and uploaded through the old template. This week I realized how important it is to always to teach yourself, you might think you will not do or use the coding or any other skills, it might be a moment when you realize how good it is that you took that class, read that book, watched a video or anything else that might help you in the situation like mine.
