Webpage or not

You see, I'm thinking about making a webpage to "promote" my games and other crap, but I'm not sure if I should...What do you think?

You should.
Make sure you put screenshots, or no one will ever download your stuff.

You know...I would probably forget and the download part lol...any ideas for my page? Also do you know where I can get some good Webpage publishing Software...I've got some on my laptop but want to get some newer software for my desktop

Notepad...

No kidding here, I made my pages with it. o_O

I've used notepad, but heres the problem...My sister kind of got rid of it and I can't find a download for it...know where I can get it again?

Same thing happend to me, and I just typed "download notepad" in google.

Windows deleted notepad for me, so Im stuck using wordpad for webpages

Thanks guys...I got it off of my xp disc...thanks again
and for the software (publishing stuff) I found some freeware stuff that does what I want it to do

00jon00 · Wed 02/06/2004 07:53:59

ok, I can use notepad to make the page but I need some software that publishes it on the internet for others to see...I've got some on my laptop but its out dated and I want some newer stuff. The only thing I've been able to find is either pay for domain name or use IP address....

Mr Jake · Wed 02/06/2004 09:08:34

domain name doesnt normally give you webhosting.....

you need to find a free webhoster such as freewebs, lycos, Geocities etc. etc. etc.

00jon00 · Wed 02/06/2004 09:22:47

K, here's the thing..Geocities, Angelfire, etc all limit you unless you pay so much a month...My laptop's got software on it that publishes webpages so that anybody on the web can view it...and its free...problem is, that programs really out dated and is have'n issues lol...it actually came with windows 95, but I kept it when I installed XP...its just not working on xp worth a crap..I was hoping to find something like it

00jon00 · Wed 02/06/2004 09:29:13

8)Well, I found updated publishing software..well actually a friend just gave me a disc for it...thanks for the help guys

00jon00 · Wed 02/06/2004 09:38:51

K, one last post lol..her webhosting program sucks..I'll just use FreeWebs. My page shouldn't be too big

I got webspace with a computer magazine I ordered... pages made with notepad, free to steal page layout ideas, but nothing else... See page here, I'd say if you don't want ads and anything, it be freewebs, but the downside of FW is a very slow download speed.

Search for an FTP prog called WS_FTP LE or something... I have a 95 version on this computer, gots winme, but it works fine. The publishing wizard thingy that used to come with IE is good, but offers no free webspace anyhow. It's an automatic FTP program... I think version 4 of IE was the last that had it.

00jon00 · Wed 02/06/2004 11:07:44

thnx TK I'm gonna try WS_FTP Pro and if it works then I'm going to "Obtain" it...Thanks again

Please don't double (or tripple) post, use the modify key.

00jon00 · Wed 02/06/2004 11:37:28

yeah sorry about that 8)

rodekill · Wed 02/06/2004 14:50:42

I used this to code my pages.
It's pretty much Notepad, but it uses colours to separate html thingies.

00jon00 · Thu 03/06/2004 00:31:20

thnx I'll try it...the color thing comes in handy
