Not that you didn't know

The dissertation deadline is coming up guys! Oooooh... I'm not finished yet.  Don't forget 4 copies in total! 2 on different cds and 2 printed and bound... all in a cheeky plastic wallet if you got one!
Hope yours is all going well lads
... guessing you guys figured that we won't be meeting up on Wednesday this week and probably not Thursday either... if anyone has finished feel free to have a day or 2 off... relax! you deserve it :p
Catch y'all on the flip side

  1. Does the list of illustrations and bibliography have to be paged numbered, so in the content page do i have to list illustration page 1 or something. Or does page 1 start from your Introduction?

  2. not sure...
    What I did was contents page = 1 all the way to the end of the document.... cant go wrong then i thought
    I
    In the contents page i didnt say: Page 16 Picture of MW2 etc etc
    I did that in the list of illustrations - In the list of illustrations i put the page number first - then down one side figure 1a 1b 1c or whatever u used to number them. In line with 1a I then put (say its MW2 for example) MW2 game screenshot and then on a new line I put the address from which I got the image.

    Apparently the images are not to be referenced in the bibliography... so i didnt. lol
    If you need me to send you an example of my shizzle i will do. But to be honest i duno if im doing mine right either lol
    Hope this helps... probably told you what you already knew though lol

  3. Thanks for the heads up, so you dont refernce your illustrations in bibliography?, do you refrence it in the text then in the bibliography you state where where you found your source?

  4. No i dont think you reference the illustrations in the bib.
    Don't think you reference it in the text... you just say (Figure 1)... or (Figure 1a) or (See fig. A) in the main body of text. I dont think you're supposed to say 'In Figure 1a you can see' but what you should say is more like 'its apparent that ... and after you've done that sentence stick in the rounded brackets.

    think you say where you found the image in the list of illustrations- not next to the illustration itself.... or the

    Quote from the paper we got given from Liz -

    '''The sources of illustrations should be given, either in the captions or in the List of illustrations. It is essential that thought is given to the form, relevance, location and labelling of illustrations.'''
