Hey Mike, I noticed you are on aol, which makes it easy to make a web
page. I did one for my sister a month ago when I visited her...I recall
it took several minutes, using the aol software. Sorry, I can't
remember exactly how we did it, but I think it was as easy as clicking
on a button that set up the page all by itself...you just have to select
which style of page you want, and type stuff in, and add pictures.
For other internet service providers (such as mine), it's a bit more
complicated...but not really difficult. You need something like
Netscape Composer, which is part of Netscape Communicator (I have
version 4.6). You also need to go into the homepage of the ISP (in my
case, primenet.com) and find where to "ftp" the pages to. Once you get
the ftp info, you enter it on the page that pops up in Composer when you
push the "publish" button. Using Composer is very easy...just type in
words, then add images by clicking on the "image" button, use the format
buttons for centering, bold, etc, and use "link" to add a link after
highlighting the text. It's "wysiwyg", so "what you see is what you
get".
To see how bad my web pages are after all this...go to:

Good luck!
