Right I never did this kind of project before, but I'm willing to do it.

What do I need to make it

Any suggestions
 
you'll need a website idea (which i'll assume you have), a web editor (frontpage [yuck], DreamWeaver [good]), you might need Flash depending how profficient you are, you might need Photoshop if you're planning on having groovy images on your site. lastly you need to find a decent host. someone who's reasonably priced, has good features and won't limit you to a shitty upload and bandwidth (ie. don't use www.123-reg.co.uk :flame: )
 
You need this first:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html dir="ltr" lang="en">
<head>
 
Yeah, another thing that's useful is... html... ;) Lots of tutorials around... I actually liked having a book on it when I was first learning...
 
With a little bit of love, and just a pinch of magic.....
 
html > editors

I make all my websites in notepad
 
Lol, notepads fine if you want to learn ALL html, but that can be very tedious and daunting for many. Use Dreamweaver, that's what I've used since I was 12. Photoshop is a must, tutorials always help... and DEFINATELY look at other top web-sites, and take notes; learn from their errors and from the successes! THAT IS KEY!

SpuD is awesome. That's the same way I make my sites :thumbs:
 
Dreamweaver is fine but you it will screw you over if do not know html.
 
I make babies in notepad...

Ok maybe not, but I do use notpad for html. Once you get used to it, its far easier and less fussy than an editor. Having said that, I'm not exactly amazing at it but I wanna learn php, which is what you need for forums like this ;)
 
Hehe, setting up forums 'n shit like this is my kind of PHP... not actually writing the code :eek:!!!1one23095u0ju

if you use notepad you're the man!

Notepad is newbish! ;)

Geoshities in-browser coding thingy owns you all....No really it sucks, someone kill me for saying that. :LOL:
 
I use 1st Page 200 for all my website needs: www.evrsoft.com
It has a preview thingy and color text (OMG)! Way better than Notepad..

/me kills DiSTuRbEd

/me remembers /me command doesn't work.
