Jessica 0 #1 May 18, 2002 Here it is.The content's OK, but I hate the layout. Plus I need more photos.Someone help me find a good online html tutorial. The templates just aren't cutting it anymore, but I have the web design skills of a 3-year-old.Also the popups are killing me. I'm thinking about moving the whole thing over to www.freewbz.com.(Work is boring as hell tonight.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Secondly, if I were you, I would go surf crazy and find some sites I really like to get good ideas from. If you don't know how to do something you see, just take a look at the HTML code (available under View > Source in Explorer, similar in Netscape) Once you take the HTML tutorials what you're seeing should make more sense and getting a sense of what sites you like have done should help you with your own.GaleIsn't life the strangest thing you've ever seen?
