Hi to all,
Just a quick note for those of you editing your sites with FrontPage. As you
know, FrontPage was discontinued a couple of years ago. Right now (and up to
the end of the year) Microsoft is offering SharePoint Designer for free. If
you had/have FrontPage or Office 2003, you can go to the Microsoft site and
download it. You can still "Publish" your site with it, as it still offers
that interface.
When you install it, SharePoint Designer does NOT overwrite your FrontPage
program. Start to use SharePoint when you edit your webs. If you get stuck,
just open your web in FrontPage, do what you were stuck on, then close it.
If you do it this way, you will begin to learn the newer web editing
program. Even if you're not ready to switch, go ahead and get the program
while it's free. My thoughts are that Microsoft was beginning to lose ground
to Adobe's Dreamweaver, so they thought they'd build up their client base by
giving SharePoint away. (I could be wrong, those were just my thoughts!)
The link to the free download is:

I also have some genealogy icons and a couple of webs (two are CSS and one
is table-based) you can download and use here:

The trend in webs is away from table-based designs to CSS (Cascading Style
Sheet) positioned "table-less" designs. They load much faster and have more
compliant code.
If people are interested, I'll start a "moving away from FrontPage and/ or
moving into SharePoint, Dreamweaver or Expression Web" series on a blog.
Just email me privately at iammbk(a)nc.rr.com so I'll know who may be
interested.
Happy webbing!
