I must be lowbrow too then. I learned html on a fan forum, Rysher Highlander. You HAD to be able to post “frus”. But I kept getting into political arguments on Rysher. So another poster told me about FR. I read for a long time before joining. I thought everyone was brilliant and I’d sound like an idiot. I got over that. lol
Glad I'm not the only one. I tried learning html on AOL many years ago. I used to run a Civil War chat room there in the evenings. They offered some of us the opportunity to learn how to create web pages, etc., and so I signed up. I got through a few lessons, but it was too confusing to me, so I gave it up. I still have the html basics list originally posted on FR years ago, and have to refer to it from time to time.
