Your First Web Site ? - ...when, how, where...

SENV
When did you make your first Web Site? What was it about? Why did you make it? What did it look like?

Well, my first Website was about my club. It was fans-like site and there actually wasn't anything good on it smile.gif I made it using Tripod's Site Builder and the whole interafce was with some green and black colors. From this point of view it was UGLY, UGLY, UGLY biggrin.gif
I made it just because "I wanted to have my own WebSite" smile.gif Few months later i put some content on it and a whole "new" template...
Then i started with FPage... later came Dreamweaver and Adobe PS... And now I'm learning Flash ActionScripts and MySQL...

This was 2-3 years ago... Time flyes...

my first website was over 10 years ago and it looked good to me but by todays standards it would be very crappy. Back then there was very little the web had to offer in terms of visual appeal. Most of the "flashy" graphics had to be animated gifs. There was no flash, no CSS, no DHTML... also, everything was done in text editors like notepad. there was no WYSIWYG editors... well there were a few but they worked like *BLEEP*.

It was fun making a website because back then there wasn't much on the internet... Google didn't even exist.. I was using Infoseek as my main search engine. Yahoo sucked, and microsoft still had some competition...

I made my first website a year ago called PlayGames. It was a gaming information site that wasnt very pretty because I was just learning HTML but it was playgames.250free.com and it got very popular and had almoust full google page rank thanks to 250free.com's free auto search engine submitter. But then I shut it down for my own reasons and I just use it for personal image hosting and stuff like that now. biggrin.gif

My first website was a website for my city. It was a website for the students who go to my school. It was pretty good for a beginner I must say. I had about 400 members in it. Ranging from sixth graders to seniors. It was awesome and when I came into highschool I knew everyone cause everyone was a member of my site. It was made with MSN Groups.. freakin easiest simplest best free community web thingy back in the day. I dunno about know. They didn't even support all the html back then.. I don't think so now either. Every layout was just html tables with backgrounds and a pretty logo. lol No fancy stuff. Had like four images on each page and text for the rest... I remember when someone asked me if I knew java. I was like, coffee? ah, those were the days..

My first website was on AOL Hometown...mwahaha. It had baseball records, which I copied out of a little book I had gotten for Christmas or something...Goodness gracious, how silly of me. I must've been 8 or 9 years old, I think. No experience with HTML, no way of comprehending FTP, no nada.

Sad, sad times those were.

My first website was made like 4 years ago, and it was really... REALLY bad. Even though at the time I probably thought it rocked lol it was made on expage.com which is like the most easiest website server to build on because it does pretty much everything for you all you have to do is type the text in where you want it. My first website probably just consisted on a few images, a blog and shoutouts and a guestbook.

Haha...my first website was on Geocities, and I forget what it was about. Probably something random that I was really interested in at the time, or some sort of general bloggish thing. I dunno, the only time I edited it was probably that day that it was created...since then I've made more of those random type sites, but now I plan to make one that's actually good and that I'll actually update.

My first website was on Geocities... three years and a few months ago. It was before I knew HTML, of course, so made it with the PageBuilder. It was a Roswell (my favorite show) fan site. Black silk background, a picture of Max, Isabel, and Michael in the middle, and red text on the sides. I had all the back blurbs from the books on one of the pages... I didn't know much about graphics at the time either, so the ROSWELL header was just text in that font.

My first website was a project from my high school. I was a freshman that year and I just knew about Internet, because I never used computers before. So you guys might think that I went trough hell doing it and added the fact that the only tools are allowed to use in the HTML coding is a notepad. Well, for some people it may be frustating, but not for me strangely. I kind'a enjoy doing it. I put a lot of effort to it, although when I looked at it again, it is kind'a childish. It is more like a Comic/Anime fan web mixed with personal information. A lot of pictures and MIDIs and GIFs were put in the web. So I guess it was an experiment for me to see how far I could go back then. As you guys may have figured it out by now that the theme of my web is Personal Hompage. As for the hosting, I chose the only site that I knew Yahoo! Hosting, or as many people know as Geocities. So the space is "kind'a" limited and the upload speed is also "kind'a" slow. Well, I guess that is my experience of creating my first website. Thank you for asking. rolleyes.gif rolleyes.gif rolleyes.gif

My first website was not on Geocities or Angelfire, but it was a simple subprofile-site that I created by hand. The entire thing was able to be viewed in AIM's text browser, and because it's a text browser, images, tables, css, and other goodies were not available. I had well over 10 pages, but updating them all were a pain, so I stopped. The host that...hosted (for lack of a better word) my site was Thirdage if you're wondering.

Well my first site was made at angelfire. In fact i just looked it up and its still online. Look at it here. My First site! I was done with veeeery basic html. I was soooo suprised to see that it was still up. it took like a week to make it because i had hardly any idea what i was doing. I learned HTML and alot of other stuff and htmlgoodies.com/. It is ez to follow and step by step.

I also made another site right after it. It was about me and my friends dream to build a Nightclub. It is still our dream but it will be a normal club instead of a christian one. Check it out HERE. Alot of the pics dont show up because i didnt know how to put some pics on it without hotlinking them. So they dont exist anymore.

My first site I hosted on Geocities. It was 4 years ago so I was either 10 or 11. I found my mom's HTML book and decided to get ahead of my Tech App's class. I could do forms by 7th grade and I was working on learning PHP and CGI...still not quite there, but I can understand it a bit better now. My intermediate intregrated technology into most of the core classes. To boot, we had mini-courses that you got to pick (4 or 8 every year depending on the length). I didn't start using Dreamweaver until late 8th grade, and although I prefer notepad, Dreamweaver helps me plan the design of my site. I used to love the colors "maroon" and "sage green" which I still enjoy...just not together. The site was blinding, but it served its purpose. Now at least, I have tendencies to actually use CSS instead of getting something that would break the W3C validator with its mistakes tongue.gif
