  4. Antoine,
    This looks excellent. It is a great beginning the background works within the grid of the page and the and you have learnt about the placement of code on you page. – where is your web page . The way you integrated the background jpegs into the grid of the div tags is excellent!! Now you need to really work on your headings and Text setting the style guides
    It was a lot of hard work and math.
    would love to see you do the class again an really get good at web design!
    Have a great holiday
