"Learning by Doing"
"Ida's desktop"...I sent her my "forest07.jpg".
She likes this wallpaper very much.
The reason I decided to start this HTML lesson is that
"Ida" my friend in Brazil asked me how to change the midi in her email.
She
is an inventive lady and a nice photographer. When I updated my website,
she sent me a nice greeting card with a big smiling animated GIF and music.
Then she sent me a more impressive greeting card with beautiful hydrangea
and music embedded. This was one of her first original greeting cards.

But the music was the one I have heard at one "e-card" homepage.
Maybe, she used the greeting card she had received before as a "template."
Since
then,I started to think how I can make my original greeting card. I know
a little bit about HTML and succeeded in embedding my favorite midi.
The problem is "how to teach." Maybe, Ida is a HTML beginner,
so she might not understand all what I say, and her computer is different
from mine. And language problem. Both Ida and I aren't native speakers of
English.
So, I made the most use of the camera to make the lesson more
understandable.
Now, I hope more people will understand this "Tanaka
method" to make their original greeting cards.
