Getting Started on the Web: Creating Your Own Personal Web Site

Would you like to create your own web site but aren't sure how to get started? Do you have questions about how to prepare pages, select a web hosting service, or upload information to a server? Are you unsure which software tools you will need to get started with web design? Or perhaps you've been dabbling a bit but just don't have a great deal of confidence with your web design skills?

Have we got a show for you! Join us for an exploration of the web design process, beginning with a look at what you'll need to get started (including low- or no-cost software you can use) and a review of basic web technologies and why the HTML, GIF, JPEG, and CSS acronyms are so important. Learn how to easily create web graphics (using software you may already know), construct a series of web pages, then link them together into a complete site. To finish the process, you'll see how to connect to a web host and upload the files directly to the server so your masterpiece can be viewed by millions!

Join us and participate in this group project working through the web design process from start to finish. You'll see how easy it is to get started, discover a wide array of online learning resources, and maybe even have fun along the way.
