Websites anyone?

[luckies4me]

WOW! I think that is a great idea! Now we will have a place to self promote ourselves and possible have other happy customers somment also. For instance someone who has had a portrait done. Anyways I think the idea is great! Now everyone can find out what other people do for a living and what their hobbies are. Thanks Paul!



So does that mean I can advertise my handmade ratty hammocks and small animal supplies, hehe.

Hey, hows about an Adoption or Breeders listing forum? Just an idea.

Good idea Paul!

Luckies4Me... now that I think of it... the best thing you could do is build a website for yourself... give your buisness a unique name and get a domain name. That way you can show off your talents and people searching for a web designer will find you.

As for Art School... you would be best to search the colleges and universities in your area. I could give you a list of Art Schools, but unless you are able to move to be closer to that school, it would be pointless for me to list them.

Personally, I did not have the money to go to an Art School. I got an Associates Degree at a local community college. They had great equipment and programs. It's where I learned Dreamweaver, Photoshop, ect.

I absolutely love Dreaweaver, Flash and Fireworks! Dreamweaver is the best though because you can import Flash and Fireworks and it already has premade buttons you can use! I think it is the best web page builder ever.


You know what the cool thing is, I started the first thread in this section. Hehe. Ok I am easily excited!

Hehe thanks! Actually I still have not decided on a good halloween pic. Ahh! lol.

I'm quite the dork, and the way I know how to make websites is with geocities. Thats the extent of my webpage knowledge. And I know Adobe Photoshop....but that's self-taught, lol, no instruction book...so well, I'm sure I don't know how to use it as well as others.

It'd be cool if someone could fix up my website for me. I'd like a domain name too. Unfortunately...I am poor....

You don't need big bucks to get a domain name, there are places you can register one for less than $20 a year!

Good luck you guys!! Hope you do well luckies4me.

Mary, this thread used to be at General, but then got moved here when Karen and Paul created this Market place.

I never saw it when it was in general... but anyway it is for anyone to advertise what they do right?

Yes, just like you have started a thread here and us too, everyone can come (who has more than 10 posts) and advertise their business here, and only here at the Marketplace.

By the way, those wreaths are lovely, do you do them from real wood too? My mom did those from real plants etc. and I guess I could too but the material costs too much maybe one day! They are so beautiful!

[luckies4me]

C&K, I love your pic! I need to make one but my digital camera ran out of batteries. *sigh*

[toughCookie]

thanks!

the wreaths are made of yarn, and on a wire coat hanger frame.
I have made those occasionally for years and years...takes time but its fun.

That was a good story with a happy ending!
