But…but…but…I dont know HOW to make a website! What should I make it about? About me? About my cat? OOOH, the pressure! Is this a limited space thing? Should I get an account “just in case”, or will it be there if I ever get creative enough to make a webpage? I wanna be on the bandwagon, but I don’t play any instruments, nor can I sing! ---

Great timing - my freebie page at MSN Communities has been dumped twice. I don’t have any deep, profound stuff to share, but I like to post photos of me and mine so my legions of fans can drool and fantasize… Or not. Anyway, once I get home, I’ll be checking this out. Thanks, **Opal**! ---

**mnemosyne** : Just use the web page to host all the pictures that SDMB policies won’t let you link to. Duh. I’m _sure_ Opal won’t mind. 🙂 ---

partly\_warmer: well, if you use the free option, the ads pay for it. If you upgrade, your payments pay for it. I don’t have to pay to bring you this service because I bring them the customers by using them. (“them” = [About.com](http://About.com) with whom I have partnered for this) For those who don’t know how to make a site, try the Site Builder. It uses templates and simple forms and stuff and makes pretty decent sites, considering. ---

Just a quick question: From the sign up page - > [@](#): > > I want a free Web site and agree to display [teemingmillions.com](http://teemingmillions.com) ads on my pages, present occasional pop-up ads and receive promotional emails. I can choose to upgrade my site later. How occasional are the occasional pop-ups and how much spam / promotional e-mailswill they send me? ---

Tuco: I really don’t know ☹ it’s $1.99 to get it shut off – that’s all I know. I’m as new to this as you are. I have noticed that the popups tend to be when you close the page, not when you open it, so that is at least one small favor. ---
