That's a nice Freewebs template.

Should I continue coding or focus on my art? Vote here:

If I was you, I would drop that site. freewebs is nothing but a pile of rubbish that's been rotting for 2 years and never got taken out to the bin.
Anyway if you're gonna set up a site, learn HTML, XML, or PHP and make one. a simple control panel based site is basic and rubbish.
And I highly doubt Freewebs accepts HTML post's and ect.

Yeah, get a proper webhost, you can find them for $9.95/ month at A Plus and you can pay monthly. If you can dish out enough to pay three months in advance, check out Yahoo! business hosting, or if you can do it a year in advance, check out Dreamhost. When people see "freewebs" in your URL, they instantly think "hobbyist." Good if you really are a hobbyist, terrible if you're hoping to make any money .

You don't need to learn HTML to make a website, you can download Nvu (google it), it's a free, open-source page builder tool that's as easy to use as M$ Word and as featured as Dreamweaver or most of the other big pay-for-it apps. Before MISoft had a real webmaster, I was using Nvu for a long time, and only extremely nitpicky people (myself included) were unpleased with the site . You're better off learning HTML and PHP in the long-run, but Nvu is highly functional and will let you get a website up and going right now, as opposed to six months from now.

I've never really seen a webpage made in XML... unless you mean XHTML...

Well, XML is a bit useful for big pages but it's useless on its own.

I had to learn how to make webpages using XML and XSLT in school. It was a lot of work for results that could easily have been done in just regular HTML.

I have a server here that has:

Quad P3 Xeon 500mhz
2gb server sdram
200+ gb hdd storage
2x 1000mb/s network cards
1x digital thingy (i forget what it is called)
3x 500w PSUs

can i host on that for free?

all i need to do is configure the hdds and install linux.

ok, I know someone who will host it for free locally in my town, and charge $2 if it goes over bandwidth limits! I'll try him when he's not busy. And he is a computer tech, so he'd be able to fix it for me, i am moderate in computing.

Freewebs has new features:
User accounts on free sites
Online store on free sites

Also, it can get good if u spend time on it. But ill try other free online hosts soon too.

Holy crap, just looked a 3ix and the deals r amazing!:-X i might go with them.

thx

I hate to be a rule thumper but you're advertising another forum and website that is completely empty, and then going off on double-post tangents. I have already warned you not to double post and not to create so many similar threads. If you keep this up you will get a slap.
