It's easier to find a Vette than to ..

[Bill Braun]

make a Web page about it!


As a follow-up to the "At Long Last" thread, I took some digital photos and attempted to make a Web page. For anyone who cares to look, the subject of "At Long Last" can be viewed (I hope) at the following URL: http://home.datacomm.ch/william.braun


If it doesn't work, I apologise. I am beginning to have a great deal of sympathy for John Waggoner.

Bill,


Your first attempt at a web page turned out great. Need a part time job? The size and resolution of your pictures is really good for a first time html hacker. So many times the pictures are great but they are such huge files you go to sleep while they load. Yours are just perfect.


By the way, you got a beautiful car.

Bill. Excellent jobs, both on finding a fine, driveable car and on preparing the website. I'm jealous.


BTW, how did you post that hyperlink? When I try to post in HTML, nothing happens.

HTML

Geezer,


I'd like to be able to give you a long-winded technical explanation, but I'd be lying through my teeth.


I just copied it from the URL thingy and pasted it into the document. It seems like whenever I do this and send the document, it is automatically converted to a link, but only after it is sent. All my friends think I'm a computer whiz. If you don't tell them, neither will I. Deal?


As much as I'd like to claim credit for the quick download, I think it has more to do with John's tireless efforts to optimize the DB. On the other hand, I DID try to type quickly.


I just spent the afternoon crawling around in and under the car, and even managed to dent my forehead on the air cleaner. I was standing on the driver's side of the car, leaning way over, when the damn plywood sheet on the floor suddenly slid away from the car. I'm just happy my wife wasn't there to see it; she'd still be laughing. :-D

Jerry,


Watch what you wish for. If you get caught up in the html bug you may end up with no time for the Corvette. Trust me I know.

Re: HTML the easy way

Jerry, The easiest way that I have found to make web pages is using Netscape Composer, which is part of the Communicator package. It is available free from the Netscape web page (www.netscape.com). It is about as easy as making a document with a word processor. I used it to make my Corvette pages, and after I learned how to get around in the program I was whipping new pages right out.
