But you can build a page without ever seeing a line of HTML code. That is what web authoring packages like MS Frontpage do. You create the page and then upload it to your site. But to start, you do not even need that! Both Geocities (www.geocities.com) and Tripod (www.tripod.com) provide online authoring tools, so you can simply upload your images and build your homepage using the tools provided by the host. That is how my motorcycle page was built. My photography page was built with MS Publisher. So, your first step should be to go to Tripod or Geocities and sign up for a personal page. Both of them will give you 11 MB for free. Nathan Joe Stephenson wrote: > Dear LUG'ers, I have enjoyed looking at the home, or web pages, that > various members have referenced.
