TUTORIAL |
How do you design a web
site? The easiest way to start is take the plunge
and learn some of the html coding basics. Yes, I know...there are editors
around that'll do all that "hard" stuff for you...what happens when
you don't like the result the editor has arbitrarily decided on? Even WYSIWYG (What
You See Is What You Get) editors need to
be coaxed into line, now and then. If you know some of the basics, you
control the editor, not the other way around.

I
started the hard
way, with a book, a good text
editor, and a browser. Sometime later, after much trial and error, I
uploaded my first web. It was basic, it was sparse of content, but
it was there! I was proud of it. Looking
back, I'm still proud of those first pages, (evolved now) but would do them
differently, given the opportunity, of course. Experience gives a change
of perspective.

The temptation
to use the "latest, biggest and
brightest" ideas available is always there; new methods are
springing up daily...hourly, almost. When I'm tempted to try the newest
"flash", I remind myself that a fast loading, clean looking,
interesting and informative page is better than an innovative, glitzy, special
effects page that nobody is going to see because it loads so slowly that nobody
will wait around that long.

A
good web site (personal or business) is almost a living
entity; it grows and changes constantly or it dies. Fresh content
and new ideas give it life.

hope the links listed below will help you on your way to
building your web. There are sources from java scripts, clip art, and
search engines, among others. Good luck, and if I can be of
assistance, please let me know. Susan
