Creating your personal folder

You will now create your own folder in the ETC folder so that you can have a place to save all of your technology projects. You will be able to access this folder in the future by following the steps listed in "The Connecting to ETC" section.

    1. With the ETC folder window active, go to the File menu and choose New Folder.

    2. An untitled folder will appear with its name selected.

      NOTE: If its name is not selected, you can click once on it to select it and then press return.

    3. Rename the folder by pressing the delete key and typing your last name.

      NOTE: Be sure to give your folder a simple name with no spaces or special characters like forward slashes or colons. You can replace a space with a space with an underscore like this _ but that is pretty much the only "safe" special character. You will save yourself a lot of headaches later on when we are working with web pages if your folder has a name like this wagoner, bethwagoner, or beth_wagoner. If two people are working with the same folder, name it something like this beth_and_jurgen or jurgen_beth.
