What I learned from the project:I experienced both the difficulties and the pleasures of working with a team, and the need to carefully balance personalities and skills to best accomplish a task. I learned the value of regular communication of project status - can appreciate completely the efficiency and effectiveness of all team members sharing a common work site. In retrospect, can see moments of confusion when messages to certain team members were not copied to all team members and the overall awareness became fragmented. With respect to client, I was, and am, impressed with the enormous need for attention to detail (re: links, navigation, etc.) when translating a current and sizable website into a new design.
