Kewl site man - good job.

Although you might want to down size things a little - don't know what
you are using for a web editor though so I can't offer advice.


Thanks for the feedback. I had the pages set to 1400 wide that may be too
wide for some monitors. I have reset them to 1200.


It just seemed a little wide. Then again, I set mine for my monitor
here in the office and when I looked at it on another machine the
other day - eeeeewwwwwwwwwww!!!

I need to work on that this winter.

The software is "PageBuilder" on Yahoo GeoCities. It's a java based
program
that is really simple to use and does not reside in your computer ... you
use it on line. It has to be simple given the fact that even I figured
it
out in a half hour or so.


I've tried that - works fairly good. I've been using Namo Web Editor
6 which seems to be a fairly decent editor - has WYSIWYG editor, html
editor, combo editor and a fairly decent web graphics program.

I also removed the sound files from two of the pages as they were causing
an
"Active X" prompt on some computers.
It didn't on mine, but did on Mrs. E's. Both laptops are the same, except
she has the media enhanced version and I have the basic HP Pavilion
zd8000.


I've found the problem with sound is, if you are like me that is, you
have music playing on the computer, or in my case WEEI in Boston
playing in the background and when you click on a page, up pops the
"other" music and you spend time searching around for the off - can't
find it, yada, yada, yada...

And, as you discovered, there is the activex problem.

However, I like the page - especially Sam's page.

Gotta love dogs.



I haven't played with website building since back in the days of the
original "Boats of rec.boats". I remember doing that one using a word
processing program and everything was in HTML code. It got to be a real
pain and confusing as the site grew. I was amazed at the ease of doing it
now, years later, using a program like PageBuilder. No html codes to deal
with ... it does everything for you. GeoCities even registers the domain
name for you. The "free" website hosting that they offer is very limited in
terms of bandwidth usage, plus they put their advertisements on it. I
elected to go for the "Pro" option that offers more space and bandwidth
usage than I'll ever use and it's only $8.95 a month.
