For complete DUMMIES like me.

I need assistance. I thought I had it all sorted with some wizard thing my host provides but it appears its a little too basic.

I have Microsoft Front page on my pc but no real idea how to use that either.

FUN.

Meh. I had to use Frontpage at work. It's HARD. I wrote some basic steps down just now, but it's so unnecessarily complicated that they didn't even make sense to me. Luckily however, there are loads of webdesign guides/tutorials online, and this one looks relatively simple and easy to follow...

What sort of site do you want to make? It's easier to give/find advice if you have a solid idea of what you want.

I think you can even make them in Word, probably wouldn't be too high quality tho.

However, Wendy is just AMAZING and made me the best site EVER. Whoop.

Wendy is YOUR LADY!!!!!

Seriously, I am so impressed with what she has done, so are the peeps I am doing my site with.

I got my server sorted too. £67 for 2 years with unlimited bandwidth and unlimited email addresses etc. Did some shopping around and heard good stuff about them, someone else used them.

They do a three month free trial as well.

After hearing your nightmares with 1&1 I have swapped my domain over permenantly to Streamline.

No, its not live yet. I am still transferring data over and having difficult with FTP coz I am a bit DENSE when it comes to stuff like that.

Hopefully it will be live tonight, fingers crossed.

Its a music sites, features, reviews, news etc etc.

For lots of bands 90% of Moopy will hate but HEY HO.

Its called BANDWHORE! :D

will you go and have a listen to something for me please - I just went but I can only have it on really quiet in my office and I want to talk to this guy before I leave (I'm moving offices)

They're recording an album which will be released in August I think.

I am at work and don't have speakers! :(

I can listen to it when I get in but it probably won't be much help then!

Never mind, thanks anyway. Well, you can always go and listen to see if you like them. They sounded good from what I heard, but not enough to give him an opinon. It's Scott that I know, on guitar.
