About+the+Authors

// **Journal ECOMP355 -**I thought to add a author profile at the last minute to the wiki and have not have time to make my mock assignment what I wanted. However after all of the practice downloading pictures adn editing pages on the wiki I was a lot faster at getting pictures on the page. I think if I had time I would make the profile in a powerpoint program or as a newspaper style page. However, tech problem I am having is that some of the pictures I put on the page were working and than I save on the page and they turn into gibberish. I am really out of patience at this point and will have to leave it the way it is, that is killing the perfectionist in me. //
