| chrissamdog's Full Review: Microsoft FrontPage 2000 |
Well I must first point out that when it comes to computers I can basically point, click and follow directions pretty good. Other then that I really don't understand much about computers and web pages. Like HTML,downloading files,inserting files,Fonts or building web pages or any of that Hi Tech stuff. Until now that is.
I recently purchase a book called Sams Teach Yourself to Create Web Pages in 24 hrs. which came with the front page disc. The book itself has step by step instructions and some links and tricks to helping you thru the web building process which I found to be very helpful. And now I am a web site building maniac. I only have 1 site published so far. http://samdogspicks.terrashare.com//samdogspicks.htm
But I am working on others and I am constantly trying to make my website better.
GETTING STARTED
After you follow the easy step by step install instructions you are off and rolling. The program walks you through each and every stage of building a site. With helpful tips along the way. The book I purchased w\as also very helpful because I could follow along with it. I learned so much in the first hour or so that I had to take a break and just soak up what I had learned so far. Coming from a non techie I was just over loaded. But it really is very simple.
Features
Some of my favorite options and tools are the Hyperlink where you can type in a heading and then link it to a web site or another page on your site. Bookmark where you can link something to a specific spot on a web page. Inserting Images where you can download and insert images into your site. Although I am having problems in that area. I am not sure if it is a program I am missing or if it is the free web server I am using. I cannot seem to transfer my files into Binary Files which is required I guess by the Free web site I am using. If anyone has any Help in that area it would be Highly appreciated. Fonts is also a feature I really like playing with, where you can change the size shape and colors of the print on your page. I use a pretty good free web service site to publish my site called Terrashare.com if anyone knows of a better one please let me know. There are so many great tools that this opinion would get quite lengthy so I will leave it at that.
Summary
I know I have a long ways to go in my Web Site Publishing skills but this program has really gotten me off to a great and quick start. I highly suggest this program for all levels of experience, but especially those with limited knowledge like myself. Very easy step by step instructions.
