First two days of Starter Project

My two week starter project is to: first, rethinking the remix process, making it more streamlined, etc.; and second, once the badges and rules are introduced, to be able to generate custom tutorials based on what badges a user has earned—in other words, the creation of personalized tutorials instead of just the basic tutorials for everyone. 

I spent Wednesday afternoon familiarizing myself with the remix process, and brainstorming about ways to make it more efficient, as well as noting a few possible issues.  Thursday morning, I was introduced to the actual code and the updated version of the remix process, which already included many of my “efficiency propositions”; things like making the tutorial part optional, and making it take less steps, creating more ‘back’ buttons, etc.  For most of the morning, I looked over the code, to get a feel for what each part did and how to go about changing things.  Caitlin and I had decided to remove the Preview section on the progress bar, and integrate that into the description pane that follows, as well as reorganizing the pane and removing the start and end screenshot panel.  I got everything but the Preview Captured Action panel completed.  I will continue to work on that tomorrow, and hopefully be able to fully integrate the Preview captured action panel.

    <p>I've got to see this new remix dialog! Next week let's get a screen shot here! I really like that you are taking a process that felt completly disconnected and bringing it all together in one piece!</p>
