8:00  PM - "TAKING WEB PAGE CREATION TO THE NEXT LEVEL " -  Larry Gross

Many of us create web pages that are displayed on free or inexpensive web hosting sites.  Most of these hosts provide free editors for creating the HTML code necessary to view the pages on a browser.  Unfortunately, many of these editors limit authoring flexibility which in turn limits the uniqueness and the look of the displayed pages. 

Larry will show us how to use a free WYSIWYG web authoring editor to improve the look of your web pages by using tables to position graphics and text where you want them.  He will also show how to add background textures and simple “rollover” links.  The use of simple style sheets to assure a visual uniformity to text content will also be demonstrated.

As an extra bonus not related to the main topic, Larry will also show us how to use a Firefox add-in to decrease page loading times by eliminating third party advertisements.

9:00 PM –  Prize Drawing
