I've just spent a couple of hours compiling all the questions I could find from Edexcel's IGCSE English Literature (4ET0) past papers (from June 2011 to June 2013). At the moment, they're only missing the 2014 papers, but they're not made publicly available yet. Hopefully you'll find these useful. Do tell me if I have made any mistakes. |

As I mentioned in my earlier blog post, I particularly wanted a site where I could combine audio, video and text in order to present some of my poems. Facebook isn't great - the Notes function isn't the most adaptable platform out there. Tumblr isn't great either - although you could, technically, create a page from coding and advertise it that way, it's just not the most accessible way. I've tried other websites like Wordpress and Blogspot too, but they are more restricted to writing, and I was hoping to share some of my artwork too. Weebly really has given me the flexibility to create this site quickly and quite freely. The What You See Is What You Get feature is great and very easy to use. One of the problems was, however, that I couldn't resize the slideshows on the art, graphic design, and photography pages. I found that the best way to solve this problem was to use columns. With the columns, you're able to resize slideshows simply by dragging the dividers on either side of it, as you can see below. Another thing that I had to consider, in regards to the slideshows was what browser most people were using. I wanted to make sure that the height of the slideshow was not too large, so that users couldn't see the whole image at one go. I wanted to make it as user friendly as possible. So, as long as you don't have too many toolbars, the slideshow should fit. I hope! Lastly, I think the thing of greatest concern was maintaining the protection of the site's content. Since all the creative content here (the poetry, the photography, and the artwork) are all my own creation, I wanted to protect it, and stop people from stealing my work. This meant that I had to explore with various CSS and HTML tricks to try and limit the amount that people could take. It's so easy, nowadays, for people to drag and drop a picture, and they can get the high resolution image. I had to ensure that my photos wouldn't be treated in that way. It's all down to a CSS code that you can put on your webpage. Here it is: img { Anyway, that's it for now!
It's 2.11AM over here, and I really should be sleeping.
Oh - randomly - I've also decided to read Doomwyte by Brian Jacques - one of the only Redwall books I didn't read. It's a nice break from the Romantics for a little bit.
So far, Weebly has been great. It's so flexible, and easy to use. I'm very glad to have found it. I've managed to get a range of pages done in a matter of days.
Please contact me if you find any problems with the website! I haven't tested it all yet. Nevertheless, I hope all is well with everyone! With Love, Henry. |
