    We're meant to be doing ours, but I haven't a clue what to do for it; our teacher was extremely vague about what we had to be (She said something along the lines of: WRITE 'BOUT BABIZZ), so I really don't know what to do.

    Does anyone have any 'good' ideas?

    I haven't a clue about the format though. Does anyone have an example project I can kinda base my off. We have the most idiotic teacher doing them with us, everything is to be done at home and she'll offer no help whatsoever. :rolleyes:
