Must be a lot of people trying to view her page because it appears to have crashed. The power of FreeRepublic!

What do you intend to do with said page? If you're looking to keep up a page where you comment or otherwise vent on various subjects, consider getting a blog page. A site like
www.blogger.com would be a good place to start. I keep one that's updated
when the mood strikes. And somewhere around here is a thread with URLs for other FReeper blogs.

You might want to use Blogger.com to start with --- they have a free blog page option (no mail, no links) and a good "do-it-yourself", step-by-step procedure. Just to see what it's all about and some of the things you can do. The formats are easy to use and follow.
If you want your page to be available publicly, they will charge $15 a year to host it for you, with othr options costing additional money.
I just started one there two or three weeks ago. Take a look if you'd like:

Why not set up a personal website on your FR profile page?
Here's an easy shortcut to put up a web page. Create a simple page in a web editing program. If you don't have one, create it in Outlook or Outlook Express, just like a fancy email. Then switch to the source or html mode of the program. Copy everything between the <body yada yada yada> tag and the </body> tags (but don't include them) and paste it into the text box provided for your personal page.

The shortcut will work with text and any images which are already hosted on a web server. It won't show images on your hard drive. I'm creating this with Outlook Express as an example.
Here is an image I copied and pasted from a web page:
and here's one on my hard drive:
You can't see the second one because it's not on the Internet.

An easy way to look like an HTML wiz is to download a copy of Mozilla. It comes with a simple HTML composer. If you choose to start a blog page with a service such as Blogger.com, you can still use Mozilla to compose the posts; you just paste in the relevant code.
A simple page might look something like...
This is a simple page.
It uses a handful of font effects.
It has a link.
The HTML for this looks like...
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
This is a simple page.<br>
<br>
<b>It</b> <i>uses</i> <u>a</u> <font color="#990000"><i><b>handful</b></i></font>
<u><i>of</i></u> <font color="#cc33cc"><u><b>font</b></u></font> <font
color="#993300"><big>effects</big></font>.<br>
<br>
It has a <a href="http://www.freerepublic.com">link</a>.<br>
</body>
</html>
The stuff you'd cut-n-paste is between the <body> and </body> tags. (This is how I wrote all of the HTML code for this post!)
But whatever you do, don't use MS Word. It can save documents as HTML, but the resulting code is sloppy and the files are huge.

Ooops...I understand. You have to have a place to put pictures and such ON the internet to link to.

You are welcome to peruse
mine. It is not the best in the world, but I daresay it's not the worst either. I'm not looking to sell products with it, just to keep people informed about our ministry.
