Ah ha… Just the thread I was looking for.
Hi everyone… :: waves to the site from Stuck City Iowa.::

Ok, MzSnow - I've seen your website and your other posts - do you really think you qualify to introduce yourself as a Mature single?

j/k - welcome, and I thought your site design was very sleek.

 

[MzSnowleopard]

That depends on your definition of 'mature'

age or mentality...

age wise- yes, I consider myself mature.

mentally- I refuse to grow up.


website? you'll have to be more specific... I have several.. not to mention websites within websites aka subdomains.

 

[AirForceTeacher]

The one linked in your profile ... pics of kitties, etc.

 

[MzSnowleopard]

oh ....

that's an intro page... like a bridge to some of my other sites.

You have to click on one of these options to view the sites:

My Sites:

Personal

Professional

The RPG Org

(not sure but try them here- the links may work)

 

[AirForceTeacher]

I did - it was the personal site I was talking about. I've got to set up a site for my ex's business, so I look for nice ideas.

 

[MzSnowleopard]

oh okay-...

I use FrontPage for all my sites. I know that most people don't like it but I do.

The pictures on the personal site are cropped and tweaked versions of the same picture. I used Fireworks for the manipulations.

And a net friend added the flash sparks to the head banner.

Outside of that- it's all pretty standard stuff in frontpage.
