--> For this assignment, you will need to share your work so far with someone else and get their feedback on how well you are meeting the criteria of a complex theme! If you are working asynchronously, you may do this as a self-review, but it's preferable if you can get feedback from someone else!

NOTE: There are paper copies of the Checklist provided so your partner can give you feedback without touching your computer at all. Do not pass around your computers.
