Creating a Web Page

Can you really create a Web page in a matter of minutes? You betcha. Although the templates and reasons for creating a Web page may vary, the process remains largely the same, no matter what type of page you create. And that's the great thing about your .Mac account it provides a bunch of templates and does all the dirty work for you; all you need to do is provide the pictures or movies you want to show off, and write some text describing what you're publishing.

It goes something like this: When publishing a page using .Mac and HomePage, you log in to the HomePage section of the .Mac Web site; select a template to use as a starting point for your page; connect the template to pictures, movies, or files on your iDisk; write some text for your page; and publish it.

Don't worry, I'll go over these steps in detail. Publishing a Web page with HomePage isn't a long process with a little practice, you can put a photo album on the Web in 10 min- utes or less.

I'll talk about how to upload files such as pictures and movies for your Web pages, which templates are available, and how to create Web pages using the HomePage tool.
