Creating a Website : Portfolio Gallery page

I created my Portfolio front page, I did this so that I could add projects as I go through the year. My first step was to click on the left hand menu and click on 'Pages and Menu'. I then went to Portfolio and removed the template collection and associated links.

 

I then added my new image to the page and added a 'button' I did this by going to the plus sign in the menu on the left hand side and then going to 'Button' and then dragging and dropping into my page

I then went to the menu and added a new page which will be my project page for this term I renamed it 'Buddhism in China' and then dragged it under the Portfolio and made this into a subpage. I then went back to back to the button and added a link to the button to my project page

I then added a 'Back to Portfolio Button on my project page and changed the font and colour to make sure it was clear that this was a button to return to my front portfolio page. I previewed and tested this to make sure it worked

I have updated my Home page with the new image and I added the quote so it fills my photo with inspirational text.

I also added the mobile view to see how it looks like on a mobile phone and if everything looks nice and clear.

Iwona came to UK for couple of years to study English but then decided to stay and explore the world. She travelled quite a lot. She had a big opportunities to travel to places such as Maldives, India, Spain, Italy, Germany, Holland, Norway, France but that's definitely not the end of it.
