I like this website so much

Today when I look around on line and try to find more and more resources for my writing assignment, I found the article named the principles of design (available at http://www.digital-web.com/articles/principles_of_design/). At the bottom of the article, there is a "related resources on the web" section. And the first resource is
: Art, Design, and Visual Thinking by Charlotte Jirousek

If you click on the link, you goes to this website: http://char.txa.cornell.edu/

the theme of the site is :" Art, design and visual thinking. It's a good place to learn basic rules of graphic design.

Did I use knowledge which was gotten from other courses to do my projects for Jeff's class? Maybe I did. But I never thought about the papers I read last semester to make the argument more convincing when I did projects in this semester.

Sometimes it’s easy to connect what we need to use and our memories, sometimes it’s hard. Maybe it’s because of, like Pin Sym said, how well we know about the area.

Does it matter if I had a bad memory? ...
