I give up on webpages!
 
Tried to go to my webpage today, found out it's gone! Brinkster closed my account and deleted my files because I hadn't logged in in 6 months. DAYUM! Why does everything have to be a PITA?

i pay only 2 bucks a month for my webhosting and 5 bucks a year for the domain name:)

www.joako.net is my provider

There is a three years free hosting deal right now at www.1and1.com. I have not tried it yet, but what I have read says it is a legitimate deal.

Ocbaud's site (http://www.ocbaud.com) loads quickly, and the hosting is certainly cheap enough. Register your own domain, and then you have whatever email address you want for life... Godaddy.com is popular and cheap for registering domains.

I just registered there, low87.com, but the layout and navigation to manage the site is difficult to figure out. More PITA, but I'll get there.

joakimsen is the guys AIM name;)

you cant used frontpage either. you have to use another web design program to update it through ftp. i use dreamweaver mx myself.

Low87 10-10-2003 10:07 AM

I've always pretty much just used HTML, I guess it's about time I stepped out of the 90s and got a program.

Slonaker 10-10-2003 02:22 PM

Dreamweaver is the way to go...

Another vote for Dreamweaver here!

Russell 10-10-2003 07:02 PM

Notepad!

apstguy 10-11-2003 03:18 AM

Dreamweaver!

Low87 10-13-2003 09:42 PM

Dang, all you guys paid $400 for Dreamweaver???

swervin ervin 10-13-2003 10:15 PM

I bet none of them paid one red cent for it. Well, maybe the time to download it from KaZaA. :)

I'm another Notepad person myself. I like to write my own html. Personally I don't like all the extra garbage Dreamweaver or Frontpage adds, especially Frontpage.

Slonaker 10-13-2003 10:17 PM

I use it at work. They wanted it, they paid for it. If you can get your hands on a copy you'll like it.

Dreamweaver is so good because it doesn't add all the crap that frontpage is famous for.

I have no desire to learn html, but if it works for you guys, that's great. I'm a hardware guy, not a programmer. :)

bah to html!

i know all i need to know of it. i can make a simple page with it:)

Low87 10-14-2003 10:32 AM

I taught myself HTML about 6 years ago, haven't really used it in about 4 years, so I've basically forgotten everything. I downloaded the free 30 day trial of Dreamweaver. I've got absolutely no desire to download the program off Kazaa.
