What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
Greetings, Everyone:
I had a lot of fun doing this project; it seems like it could be functional piece to utilize on a number of ways either on a site, or on social media.
What I was most proud of was the length of time it took me to complete to complete the project. It seems like with each project, it goes a little faster. I also incorporated some suggestions graciously given to me by @JEWebDev from my last project. I always appreciate it when someone takes a look and give encouragement, or better yet, pointers on how to do better.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
While I didn't have issues with the stated challenges, I really wanted to become more creative with the links themselves. So, not only did I make them live links to the respective site figured on the link button, but I also added the hover states (required in the project) and an active state for those using a mouse. What I really wanted to do was to create a "visited" state for the button itself, but I couldn't seem to get it to work using pseudo-classes. I tried several combinations of selectors, but never was successful.
I feel like I could do it with JavaScript, but then, since nothing else needed JS, it would have been a lot of extra work for very little gain. If someone knows how to do it using only CSS and HTML, I would love to know.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
(See previous section)
Thank you for taking a look at my solution. If you have any helpful suggestions, I would be grateful.
Happy coding!
Jeff
