Bee!
Thank you so much for the tutorial! I just had a chance to view it, and it is very well done. I like how you were very thorough with the entire presentation, yet short enough so that you don't lose the interest of the audience. It is certainly something that people need, especially here in WA, as everyone is building a website in someway, shape or form.
Super proud of you, and look forward to many more tutorials from you!
Happy New Year! :)

Thanks so much, Parmi! :D What a fantastic review, I really appreciate it!
I'm glad that it was easy to follow along, and you're right I did try to keep it under eight minutes. That's where I sometimes run out of steam when watching video tutorials!
Now that I'm settling into the swing of things for the new year I'm looking forward to working on my next training.
Thank you again for your encouragement and support, I'm not sure I would have taken the leap to get started without you!

Thank you, Marlinda!
If you still haven't found the perfect symbol, I have another resource to share in my next video to find just about any icon you can think of. I'm excited to share it once I get the time to record.
