The XMEN Clan Forums

I have NO IDEA WHERE TO BEGIN. Hey, doesn't that sound familiar? Yeah. Reminds me of when I use to play Tribes... Anyway, I just got an account at www.brinkster.com and I'm not quite sure how to begin. Should I upload an HTML file? If so, I'm pretty screwed unless I can use Homepage or something. <p><center><img src= http://www.nwlink.com/~tash/warrior1.jpg><P><I>The Truly Wise Don't Answer The Question, But They Question The Answer.<P><P>A Being Travels As Far As He Possibly Can Looking For Something, And Finds It Upon Returning Home.</U></I></center><br></p><i></i>

Uploading an HTML file is a good place to start. If you want to get simpler than that, just upload a .jpg or .gif to see how that works.<br><br>Word will turn a document into an HTML file for you, so you could start with that. Create yourself a nice little homepage with Word, save it as HTML, close it and reload the HTML file in Word just to make sure it looks right, then upload the HTML to the web space.<br><br>If you want to go much beyond that you'll need to dig up a website editor and learn HTML, and for really cool stuff find out what your ISP offers in the way of server-side scripting and database access. <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.xmenclan.org/xmengambit.gif"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br>XMEN member<br>Card-carrying DTM<br>OKL Fish-napper<br><br>Though a program be but three lines long, someday it will have to be maintained.<br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em> The Tao of Programming</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

www.smartftp.com is a good program for uploading files. It is as easy as moving files around on your computer.<br><br>*edit - I'll second that vote. SmartFTP is easy to use, and free as well! -Gambit * <p><div align="left"><hr color="#daae52"><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/gryphav.gif/sigs.php" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://www.thzclan.com/gryphav.gif"></a> <a href="http://www.thzclan.com/cam" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.thzclan.com/cam/gryphon/thb_ccam.jpg" border="0"></a><br><font size="1"><b><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/tcdb" target="_blank">Tribes Clan DB</a> - List your Tribes1/2 Clan, Guild, Fansite, League, or Script site<br><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/snooknet" target="_blank">SnookNet Web Design</a> - My web building adventures<br><a href="http://www.ryanaaron.com/dtm" target="_blank">Dragon Talon Mercenaries</a> - Online Gaming Guild<br><a href="http://www.planettribes.com" target="_blank">PlanetTribes</a> - Sp3ci@l pr0jekts<br><a href="http://www.3dactionplanet.com/planetside" target="_blank">PlanetSide Shuttle</a> - Newsie extraordinaire<br><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/hosted/planetside" target="_blank">Allied Tribal Forces</a> - A PlanetSide alliance started by Tribesplayers</font></b><hr color="#daae52"></div></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub141.ezboard.com/bxmenclan.sho ... ambit>XMEN Gambit</A>&nbsp; <IMG SRC="http://www.xmenclan.org/images/x.gif" BORDER=0> at: 2/11/03 12:00:46 pm<br></i>

HTML is pretty easy, really. It took me a while to get it, but I've got an OK grasp on it now, and I like it. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:arial;font-size:xx-large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>I HATE EZBOARD!!!</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>
