Thread Name: Tech: website design for beginners?
Subject: RE: Help: website design for beginners?
My home page is on SCN (Seattle Community Network), entirely free and no ads, but only 1Mb (!) and relatively hard to load stuff onto; for more space I use GeoCities (now a part of Yahoo), but the drawback there is that if a viewer is using (as MMario apparently does) a computer with an educational filter designed to keep kids from doing porn at school (I guess) they won't be able to access it, because somebody thinks free=dirty ?? I set up a second GeoCities site for my online hymnal, because all those MIDIs can get kind of Mb-heavy.

PS Most of my site is in Esperanto, but the little red-cross flags (English, as opposed to British) are designed to guide anglophones to legible parts. Geocities comes with annoying little ads in the upper right corner of most pages (in most cases I design it so the only thing obscured thereby is the English flag, which most of my presumably Esperantophone visitors don't need anyway...).
