dcsman,

Take a look at my Web Presence for Beginners site (link below my signature). FrontPage 2000 will work very well for what you propose to do. I would tend to be wary of "free" Web space providers. There have been numerous providers recently who (because of the decrease in dot-com fever) have terminated their free service but offered a "reasonable" upgrade. Some may continue to do business by inserting advertising on your Web pages and if that is acceptable you can take a look at them.

Are you a new computer owner, or simply new to Delltalk? You may find some helpful information on how best to use this forum here. Want to make a hyperlink in your post, want to add a graphic or sound file, need to troubleshoot a non-working Java applet, want to build an attractive signature? These capabilities can be yours if you visit Denny's DellT@lk Tutorials. For help in deciding what can be eliminated from your Startup list, take a look here. Want to get rid of Network Neighborhood, change your Registered Owner name? Check out the little utilities at Delltalk Tweekz. Ready to sign up for Web server space? Want to learn FTP? Visit Web Presence for Beginners. For new users (or veterans who would like to help a new user), a number of basic Windows tasks are illustrated in Denny's Tutorial Viewlets. Note: I do not answer Instant Messages but I do answer email.

you could start off using Frontpage, if you know your way around MS Office app., this will do. But Frontpage creates a lot (really: a lot) of HTML for even some very simple lay out. Besides, here in Holland not every provider works with the Frontpage extensions... So you better start right: use Dreamweaver, or some programme similar to Dreamweaver.

Good luck!

dcsman,

You can try the free 14 days which will automatically lead you to a coupon for an upgrade to Homestead Personal at $24.00 for 6 months. If you go this route I would hold off on purchasing Front Page 2000 until later. Who knows later may never come because Homestead Personal includes their downloadable free Homestead Site Builder that you run from your desktop! It is very fast in comparison to the other online setups done while at their site. The Homestead Sitebuilder has the beginner and the advanced user in mind. You will get to make unlimited websites with unlimited pages.

I am very happy with Homestead, the Homestead Site Builder and all the extra features it has in comparison to the many others. Highly recommended choice for building something you hope to keep around for a while.

Deciding whether you want someone else placing pop up ads and flashing advertising banners at your site or not is your first step. This will help narrow your many choices and determine which road you should take. Good luck.

I want to thank you guys for all of your wonderful and informative responses. For those that provided links (you know who you are) I have added them to my favorites section and will be in touch.

I have to wait for the non-profit to get back to me with a name, but Front Page 2000 has already been purchased and a donation has been made to use Homestead so we avoid all of the ads.

I do not know how to begin really, but it should be fun (I hope) to learn.

I'll be back! :-)

Thanks again everyone!

Danny
