ah my file is to big. how do you get it to upload.
eyeinfinitude
February 18th, 2003, 07:19 PM
Mine was too big too, so I shrunk it down to 800x600 so the file size would be smaller. If not then upload it to your server and post the link here. =)

alex: Save them as JPG not BMP. The file is smaller and then you can attach it to the forum... you should get in the habit of saving files that you are going to upload as JPG or GIF. They are what is used on the web.

i made it big when i put it into paint and now its showing up small. hold your mouse over it and then it should pop up with something that will make it bigger.

When using Geocities as your file storage space, change the extention to .txt. Then you can post it here (directly, or via a link) without any hassle.

I have no idea where the skin came from, my lil brother got it for me off some site, but the T3 wallpaper was from the new Terminator3 site. www.terminator3.com

That's awesome, and I applaud that...but Frontpage, as with every other Microsoft product tries to take over. Frontpage is Microsoft's attempt at taking over the internet.
Paired with IE, which is the only browser that reads Frontpages' code bloat, meaning that websites made with Frontpage most often only look decent in IE.
Used the right way, and not using the basic editting layout mode they have it should be ok...the only Microsoft product i'm going to be designing my websites with is Notepad...
Sorry, to step on your toes a little Kirupa...its mad cool that you've written a book...I just can't stand Frontpage, right now I'm working on a site with a client that uses Frontpage to make updates, and it was written in Dreamweaver, and its been nothing but a nightmare! =)
Alex
February 19th, 2003, 04:28 PM
i personally like front page. it does just about all the things that i need until get better at html and all of that good stuff. but then i might consider buying dreamweaver.=)
kirupa
February 19th, 2003, 05:11 PM
Hehe alex, no problem :) Btw, the entire site is done in FrontPage exclusively, and Netscape browsers usually have no problem reading the code. It's not FrontPage that is the problem. 99% of the time, it is the individual behind the PC that is usually the problem hehe.
Cheers!

yeah..you're right, it is most often the person using it...a site can come out crappy with whatever program you use...its just the bloated code that i hate...
