My first html scrach

Well, this is my first time to make a html page, I think it is quite hard not as easy as professor said in email. First I needed to change my computer language to English before I really get start. Then I use the notable wrote the html page by followed the steps. I use my favorite Chinese singer Jay Chou and his daughter's photo as the background. After I finished my html page I decided to post it on my blog to see if it is work. I really like the marquee, it is cute. However, I wrote background color to pink, it doesn't show on the page. I don't know why, and I am not going to fix it.
