| Session 2 -- making the page... | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Now that you have made your Yahoo Mail account, you can begin to actually start your page... yipee! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1. Go to Geocities (<- link here) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2. You will need to "sign in." (scroll down a little - on your left). | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3. The next page should be were you get to choose what kind of page you want. I use " PageBuilder." Choose "PageBuilder". It gives you tons of options on how to build you page. [the other choice is "PageWizards" - less options, and I have less knowlege of it...]. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 4. Clicking on PageBuilder in the previous step should bring you to a new page. Go to "Launch PageBuilder" A small screen should pop up. It will not do much for the next few minutes. When it actually does load... a larger screen pops up. This is where you actually do your page "building." My friend has an older computer... and he can't do this step... <hope that isn't YOU> |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 5. NOW you begin... I like making a start page... like a "link-o-rama" so to speak. Somewhere where you can go to other parts of you website. BUT first you should probably know a few basics.... |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| To type something: Click on the box that says "TEXT" near the top of the screen. [this place is called your "toolbox"]. a box should pop up. Your "toolbox" should change too! It now has features for writing things. Numbers are the font, size of text you can also change the color of your text by clicking on the 2 options with a "paint ezel" behind them (think that is what that is...?). The Question Mark "?" is the help topic for text. It can help out too! |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| to link something: click or highlight the item and either click on the "LINK" box in your toolbar, or the "chain" if you are in text. You then just fill in the necessary info. If it is your page, click the first box and look down for the "my page" option. then click "choose" and it will have a list of all your pages you can link to. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| I know these aren't really good instructions, but I am sorry. It is more of a "show" than "tell" kind of thing. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Session 2 - It's over !!!! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
