What are some website ideas I could design for practise?

Hey!

I am 3/14ths of the way through the Web Design track and really want to practise what I have learned so far. Does anyone have any ideas for a website I could do? Keep in mind I am at a pretty novice level right now.

Thanks!

Thanks! I tried doing your idea! I am almost finished. I am just having trouble centring the darn buttons! Is there any other way to centre them without the margin property? I also tried the display property, but that got me no where.

Thanks!

You can try wrapping the buttons in a div, for example "button-wrapper" and then give it text-align: center.

You can design something simple like an artist portfolio, or a simple website for a small business (a coffee shop or a restaurant).

One thing I would recommend is that you create a website for a business.

This doesn't have to be a real business though, you could always make one up and then create a website for this made up business. This is a really great way to get some real world experience in creating websites.

I hope this helped!
