i have yahoo web host, and i installed the mysql

i dunno how to set it up so i dont have to manually edit a html page every time i upload a render

any advice woulde be much appreciated.  thanks.

i have old,old dream weaver and a basic  understanding of cascading style sheets

and no one uses flash player for animations no mores?

yahoo afaik doesnt seem to have a streaming option, so i guess i need to embed utoob to show an animation?with sound?

the old faeriewylde let us choose between 3 display themes.  is there a way to offer something like that without using cookies?

thanks.

    Best is to look into Wordpress hosting, preferably a one click install / zero install function with your web host. Wordpress can do galleries in its default version. It can also work with themes.

    Dreamweaver, Flash are no longer used.

    guess i could tryogle for non-nviatwas/nmiatwas. 
    tho was thinkin of alternatives to swords. sharp pointy things not safe around barbarians in g strings.

    so, if i had a google drive, anyone would be able to read it?
    is it unlimited bandwidth?

     

    thanks

    Dartanbeck  better one to tell you that, I only visit other people's Google sites and never use mine.

    They seem OK

    Well my ancient version of Dreamweaver has templates so you can create a new webpage based on the template and the only thing you have to change is the image itself. You don't have to remake the whole page every time. And, as said before, nobody (except me) still uses Dreamweaver. And not even I use Flash. Maybe the internet has gotten to a point that you can just upload the whole video with no need for a streaming protocol. I suppose you could always ask the DAZ staff for some tips on how to build a website...........

    But I agree, Wordpress is probably the way to go. And Squarespace is always claiming it's super easy to make a site with their system. I think it might be easier than Wordpress but also more limited.

    There's also Wix that comes with lots of templates.

    I use the Piwigo Photo Gallery software on my website. Once you get the hang of it, not too difficult, it works really well.
