Step 1: Watch the quick tutorial video on FolioHD. Also, check the Tips and Tricks page to optimize your account.

• Watch how you can set your dominant image.
• Also notice how you can set up separate galleries for different types of photos.

Step 2 (10 points): Format your Website with the following feature.

• You should select your THREE favorite image you have taken during the first semester as your Dominant for your home page. To do this, you just double click on the thumbnail version of your photo in one of the galleries. 

Step 3 (50 Points): Next, you should set up separate galleries for the following types of photos:

• Composition (FIVE Photos)
• Motion (THREE Photos)
• Macro Photography (THREE photos)
• Other (THREE other photos you are proud of. You can come up with the name for this gallery)

Must include watermarks on all photos. 
Must have FOUR separate Galleries (one for each category). 
Must have a title and a description for each photo.

Step 4 (15 Points): Make sure you have written a biography about your self in the "About You" section under the Settings tab. Cover the following topics in your bio. Each of these should be a paragraph long.

• Where you are from (such as city, state, school)
• Experience as a photographer (class, hobby, etc.)
• Intrest area as a photographer
• Goals for your future

Step 5 (15 Points): Upload your Self Portrait. The self portrait should show you as a professional. Your style, use of composition and knowledge of exposure technique should be evident in the photo.
