Welcome to your web page Uncle Peter

This is a simple test page with one link to a jpg picture. The page is called test.htm and the picture is sd.jpg which are the two attachments which you have saved off and have succesfully uploaded to your web site (you must have been successful or you wouldn't be reading this - unless of course you are cheating and reading it off your hard drive and haven't uploaded it at all).

Anyway, you don't have to have sophisticated html pages for the whole world to see your site, as this one is purely a bit of text and a link to a picture in the same directory in your web space (which tripod have so generously given you). If you can see a tripod advertising banner at the top of this page, then I take back the generous bit, as the advertising pays for the free space - as I heard you say last Saturday, there's no such thing as a free lunch. Anyway, html editing is something you will have to get to grips with - which I hope I can help you with - but at least for now you should have the wherewithall to load pages onto your site.

By the way, the sundial is at East Riddlesden Hall near Halifax - I don't care about the copyright if you want to use the picture! (The picture is 700 pixels high - you don't want to put anything too large on your site as it uses up your space and takes a long time to down/upload if it is too big - the picture for instance is only 65k in size). I have arbitrarily chosen 700 pixels to be my standard size for the vertical or horizontal pixel dimension as I have found that this also looks good in most browsers. You may want to adopt a similar strategy (unless you require really good resolution of course).
