Hello Net, This being Friday and seeing as there is some interest in publishing web pages to exchange information on building I thought I would share a few links to help those without a lot of web publishing experience.
www.htmlgoodies.com - this site is quite a valuble tool and explains HTML in detail. This site describes the inner workings of HTML code similar to a "Basics of Aerodynamics" that you learn as part of flight training. Very good info here and enough of it that you could use any text editor to set up your pages. www.fileden.com - 500MB free web hosting space. You have to deal with ads and popups logging in and uploading but you can link out of this site without ads. This makes it a perfect place to hold your graphic elements. Then you could easily get a cheap domain through Yahoo or such and leave your HTML code there. I'm not sure how much space they offer but it's an option to have www.johnqskrpage.com or www.krn123yz.com. Domains are easier to remember than a 50 character URL. www.moonfruit.com - this has changed a great deal since I found it in 2000 and of course the free version now furnishes you with ads until you upgrade to their pay to play level. Still a fairly easy to use interface you can try for free and if it suits your need decide to upgrade from there. www.xtralean.com - Mac users, here is a WYSIWIG editor that should be on your hard drive. Sleek little app for throwing together pages in a jiffy. I'm sure there is something like it on the PC side but not being a PC user (yet that is) I'm not readily familiar with one. For Intel Mac users also have a peek at www.parallels.com. This is cool, way cool. Run just about any OS alongside OSX. If you need a UNIX box and also sevral flavors of Windows on one computer this is a wonderful solution. http://www.csi-concepts.com/index.htm - this is a dual platform CAD package with rendering capabilities that won't hit your wallet quite as hard as AutoCAD while still offering a great deal of flexibility. http://interfacelift.com/ - just a fun site to browse if you want to ditch that same old boring desktop and icons. Off topic, it's Friday. Just thought I'd hand out some useful info for the net to use. Every picture published generates that many more ideas for building and if it helps even one person out a jam it's worth reading. Get those Oshkosh photos up and share with those who can't make it this year. Have a great weekend and fly safe. B. Ferguson
