Hi...
not being the most adept on web site issues I wondered how I would go about setting a site up for my profiles.

If anyone could give me advise I would be most grateful.

Many thanks in advance
Cheers
Peter

First, and most importantly, you have to find a server. Geocities used to offer free space, but you were limited to their general addresses and those could be rather hard to remember.
Once you have the server, you'll need to upload pictures and text using HTML (Hypertxt Markup Language). That's what all the code in the brackets is when you click one of the buttons above the post text box.
You can either self teach using a decent book on this or take a class at the equivaent of a community college. Or you can look up someone who already does it.
Many ISP's such as AOL provide limited space for a simple page.
