Well I just suck at HTML but can't really afford to have someone put us anything together.  Would anyone like to help us get a website setup to show off Kalee's photography?  It's nothing complex...just a main page with links to some contact info and a couple galleries.  Any takers?  I'll buy you a beer...

I can help  Do you have a domain registered? how about a host?

Oh yeah it's the same thing we have our photoartclub.net site setup on, but with a different domain (kaleesphotography.com).  She put together a basic home page but we don't know how to do much beyond that.

If you have Microsoft Word, you can make decent pages.

yeah but word adds a bunch of crap that u don't need, just look up some tutorials on the Internet. I've created a few pages from scratch using notepad. For some complicated stuff dreamweaver works great( to bad I don't have it on my comp)

You can find pretty good tutorials for almost anything these days.  I found one for hacking admin status on Vbulletin from a quick search on youtube.

notepad is the way to go once you know the basics

.

I used to use dreamweaver for a lot but I no longer have access to it (and it's crazy expensive).  I've piddled a bit with HTML but I just can't really seem to figure out how to get it to work with me most of the time.  Anyone know of any freeware wev programs that are dreamweaver-esque?

PM sent..

this may sound odd...but i am not good at setting up web sites but i am great on making them look good and user friendly.  if you want i can offer that to you

Thanks an!

I'll keep the offer in mind, frankie...we'll be looking for lots of feedback and suggestions after we get a working site up.

If you want to lay out the pages in photoshop or something I could code something up for you. Work sent me to a bunch of html, css and flash classes but haven't given me anything to work on yet and i've been itching to finally do something.

I offered to help, even PMed ya  Seems its not that important to you.

awwwwww it's ok scott.  I saw ya.  I don't get to surf much at the moment.  I might have snagged me a copy of dreamweaver...if I can get that then I'm in good hands.  A flash site would be extra pimp, though...

Please, if you're set on flash, follow some UI tutorials for making usable sites. THere are so many that, well, suck to use.

I use something called "Simple Viewer".. it allows you to prevent right click save .. it will take as many pictures as you can put at it, however they say limit it to 50 per gallery due to load times.

Otherwise there is coppermine and stuff (GStwins uses coppermine)..That reminds me i need to log into the gallery. Its been eons.

I use www.hostpc.com but there are other webhosts that are good.

it's pretty hard to prevent saving pictures when they load em in the temp int files   

fuggetaboutit.

you cannot prevent piracy, copyright infringement, or copying of anything viewed in a browser, played on a player, etc.

you can provide tiny pictures, or very low quality, or even watermarked pictures, but that kinda sucks, and doesn't make people want to pay.

just like cndnmax said, anything can be cached.

er, ok, you could encrypt the images and provide only very small thumbnails (48x48) or so the potential customer gets an idea, but then you're getting into support...... ugh.

good luck
