I've got mindspring which is a part of earthlink. You get 10 megabytes of web space for each e-mail
address. You can have up to 7 or 8 free e-mail addresses I forget which. I've reserved 70 meg of space
I'm using about 1/3 of it right now. You can put all of your code in one area and link to images and
resources in others or keep subsections with resources and code together, or use some other arbatrary
method. Just plan it out in advance. Unless you need CGI support, which I don't think they support for
the base website, I can't think of any reason to rent more space than you already have.

1) Keep it simple and use a style sheet,I like the idea of style sheets, but Internet Explorer version 6 does
not fully support them - specifically you can use style sheets to

with my code before I finally found this bit of information out
Well, if IE6 doesn't support 'em, why the hell should I use 'em if the idea is to make the content readily available to as many people as possible.
How much space do they offer? You can make a small website easily in 5
MB, 10 can make a good one and 20 can hold a lot.
Right now I've got 10mb ... maybe more. I'm not sure if I get 10mb total or 10mb for each email address. However, the setup I now have doesn't allow for a domain name, which seems like an important consideration.
Look around the web and see what you like and then copy it. Later on
change it to suit your own style.
Yeah, I've a list of sites that I like, but on some of them all the code is not accessible. Seems like it references some code somewhere else that I can't access.
If you use frames if can be difficult to reference individual pages.
I don't think I want to use frames ...
If you use Java script some people will not bother using it.
Still not sure what Java script is and what benefit it may offer. Doesn't seem like something I want unless it's needed for some specific function that I'm not aware of.
Flash is flashy but not necessary and again a lot of people will not
bother with your site.
Not at all interested in Flash. My experiences using sites that have it have never been satisfactory.
In terms of how much room you have you can look at the sites I have had
something to do with.
Will do ... I'll let you know what I think ...
