| If your family is like most of the families I know, you don’t have time to wade through a thick book before you start working on your Web site. That’s why I wrote Creating Family Web Sites For Dummies in a way that makes it easy for you to find the answers you need quickly. You don’t have to memorize this book or even read it in order. Each section is designed to stand alone, giving you easy answers to particular questions and step-by-step instructions for specific tasks.
The first part of the book will help you master the basics, from registering a domain name to taking the red out of someone’s eyes in a photo to creating a custom Web page. In the second part of the book, project-specific chapters show you how to use predesigned template pages to develop some of the most popular family Web sites: baby sites, wedding sites, travel sites, and hobby sites. The CD that comes with this book has all the templates and graphics, and each corresponding chapter includes step-by-step instructions to help you customize the pages and images. If you’re in a rush to get a baby site or a wedding site up and running, go directly to the specific chapter and you should find everything you need.
Don’t worry about memorizing the new technical terms you find in this book. I’ve tried to keep the tech-talk to a minimum, but if you don’t understand a word, turn to the glossary in the back. Feel free to dog-ear the pages, too — I promise they won’t complain! |
