That's a lot of great resources for site building, but does anyone offer free hosting? Is there free site-hosting that can host flash intros/movies?

www.audioshot.com

dont think it gets much better.

Edit : Just checked. And the free package he had does not seem to be listed there anymore. It was called clear shot and thats what i use. It's superb! 100mb space. Maybe you can try and get in touch with the owner.

Also try www.freeservers.com .

a. No one saw the site
b. Everyone thinks it's bad
c. Everyone thinks it's bad and would rather not say..

I think it looks great! I never used slice in Gimp (yet) so can't help you with that, sorry. What is VMU? Do you mean NVU?

I still think you should try Actual Drawing...did you at least download it?

Thanks dude!

yes i meant NVU (generally bad at remembering names!) I downloaded Actual drawing and have it installed...

since i had already used NVU to import the JPEG, center align it, and export it as an HTML, I tried opening the HTML file within Actual Draw. What i got however, was justan icon of the JPEG there, not the actual image. So i let go. Should I try and compile the image to an HTML file within Actual Drawing ? Will actual drawing allow me to splice the image and assign the splices links ?

thanks a tin,,,

It would be best to start over in Actual Drawing. As much as I like this program, it doesn't import existing HTML very well. I don't think it slices but here's how to slice in Gimp:

Load image, View/Show Rulers, View/Show Guides, drag guides(lines) from rulers into image to define areas to be sliced, then Image/Transform/Guillotine.
This will create seperate images of each slice. You can then import these into Actual Drawing (or NVU) and line them all up...that's the fun part
Yes, Actual Drawing will allow you to assing each image a URL/link etc.

Don't attempt any of this until you've had a few more beers though

Im a little pissed. My mates had the rest of the beer... (so i got on to my other addiction:KVR)

guess ill have to wait till morning them.

i find the though of alligning all images within a compiler daunting. Do compi;ers have snap to grid ?

hey! real cool! i found a script online that slices the jpeg and creates a correewsponding HTML. Makes the job a snap now.

WEbsite looks nice, much better than I could do!
Tilted text on main graffic is a little too extreme for my tastes - and it is hard to read where it overlaps the background logo. But nice

[Sidhu]

thanks oboros.. i actually had the text set straight insitially... but then thought tilted looked a bit funkier... ill give it another thoght....
