First, I want to be clear that I know little about website design - that's where our collective heads work together on this. I called our internets hosing company, 1 and 1, and asked what we need for a forum discussion group. I also asked why we only have 3 pages right now. The salesman, and I emphasize salesman, said it was a matter of space. Right now we have the beginner package with a limit of 10 GB of webspace. It seems to me three pages are mighty small for 10 GB. He suggested the "home" package that includes 120 GB of space and stated that would be plenty for a forum. If i remember correctly, the salesman who sold me the beginnerer package said the same. Anyway, if we upgrade to the home package it will cost $5 a month. Right now, it's $3 a month. It has to be paid in amounts totaling for 6 months - like $30 twice a year for the home package. We're are paid up on the beginner package until 08FEB09. Here's a link with more details. order.1and1.com/xml/order/Hosting;jsessionid=9EBCE37DC0B2C3D42A4370484A508591.TC60a?__frame=_top&__lf=Static

That's not expensive at all between 3-4 people. I say go for it if we're sure this has what we want.

I'm not sure it has what we want. But it's cheap enough to give it a shot.

For a buck a month, the second option doesn't seem too bad, it might be just what we're at as a group... I'm comfortable with our forums where they're at, at least for the time being.

So any of us have the skill to write some HTML code and try to upload it to the site? We may be able to fit in more pages like that.

Yes sir, but if we're still on the first package we dont have access to HTML editor/uploader.

Yes sir, but if we're still on the first package we dont have access to HTML editor/uploader. Right. I'm about to start a new job in less than 24 hours so I'll have some money coming in to get the ball rolling. Right now, we're just trying to financially keep afloat - especially with Christmas on us. The new job even pays more and is only 7 1/2 miles from my house. Prostitution ftw!!11!1!! But really , it's a management (dark side) position. We'll see how goes.

No longer at the airport then? Hopefully it's with a good company you'll enjoy. Good luck.
