One solution for image posting for lists, family and friends, etc. That's the short term need. In the longer term, I need a different solution for hosting a web site. I do know I'll need to pay a host to get an adequate site for commercial use. But, that's about all I know so far. Well, I do know I'm gonna' get someone to help develop the web site itself instead of trying to do it by myself. I don't want to spend my time being a web developer; I want to take pictures and have people buy them ... while I travel some and hopefully take more pictures people will want to buy. My problem with the web hosting area is I'm still very un-informed, to the point of not knowing even what questions to ask. What should I look for in a host? More fundamentally, where might I look to educate myself so I know what questions to ask? -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
