[Court M3]

Anyone here good at web design? Would like to set up my own. Any good sitesfor hosting or helping a newbie create a web page? Thanks

I use www.tiora.net for my hosting

Like $8/month for 4GB transfer.

They're the company that hosts we-todd-did-racing too I think

Also check out Macromedia Dreamweavers 30 day trial for the page design. It doesnt put all the proprietary crap in like Frontpage but is still pretty easy to use.

front page is horrible. avoid it,

html is easier than all that stuff, just find a good html primer online and experiment. My pages were all homegrown.

web design sucks. I'm so glad I'm not in that buisiness anymore. :)

knowing HTML is becomming less and less important these days, but it is helpful. I preffer to do all my work by hand in Homesite, I don't think many serious web designers still use notepad. frontpage is crap, I'm not fond of dreamweaver either but if you must use a WYSIWYG editor, then use dreamweaver..

i use frontpage, its pretty simple, but it can be frustrating sometimes.

check out my page if ya like, its pretty simple but it does what i want.

I know the owner of http://parabolastudios.com - really good prices. Tell them Sean Hayes referred you. ;)

I make all my websites in Edit Plus and Graphics in Photoshop 5.5. Programs are for people that are too lazy to do the actual work. ;) :P

Dont know of any good places to start out as I started out on my own server hosted off a T3. (local)

I usually code the html then edit the site in frontpage (gets the job done!).

If you don't know jack squat about web designing, then use a WYSIWYG editor like FrontPage. People who are more advanced (like my girlfriend, who hardcodes all the pages she designs, including mine) obviously look down on it, but for beginners it's actually a pretty good tool. But the most simplest software I've ever seen are the ones used by AOL and Geocities because it's straight point and click.

Agreed. ;) I just find it funny that some people that have made websites for a long time are still using programs.

I do Graphic and Media Design for a living. Depending
on what you want, I can probably set up everything
for you (Pages, Graphics, Domain, Hosting) for relatively
cheap. If your serious, hit me up on AIM.

I use www.tiora.net for my hosting

I've never used them, but I hear nothing but great
things!

I have racknine.com hosting and its the worst thing I have ever had to deal with. It works serously 20% of the time. Total waste of 80 bucks. And they wont give me my money back.
