Following is the response to my first Guestbook inquiry as to what my saleable skills in website construction may be: I pass this on as a preliminary answer to similar inquires:

Can build for anyone what you see on my site.  Although http://daurril.com is a purchased URL, all the sites that it links to are free of charge from Geocities.  These sites happen not interactive only because my host site would cost more.  But can do them if the need is there.  Am preparing a detailed guide to present and perhaps future services, but the basic idea is for a client to gather as much visual material and text he may need, and we will arrange and put it on the net. $30 / hour for me, but just one of these should get anyone's website started.

There is a 15 Meg limit to the total amount of space geocities.yahoo allows per account: in fact you can start your first page there without me.. Otherwise, as far as my construction is concerned there is no limit to the size of a page, or the total number of them. The charge is only for my development and installation time.

As I hope any reader may understand from the preceding, I have no qualms about publishing what I think to be an adequate foundation in knowledge for us to do business.  But I do expect and require clients to be somewhat versed in web terminology, which concepts I will be happy to relate to the value-added services I provide.  Specifically, in the model already introduced:

If you start an account with Yahoo’s GeoCities, you will be invited to Build Your Own Web Site, where you may go to:

Home > PageWizards

 

 

 PageWizard Yahoo! PageWizards

PageWizards are a fun and fast way to make cool web pages. Just answer a few questions and build a professional-looking web page in minutes.

Selecting let’s say Classic Blue, you will be taken to a wizard that marches you thru the numbered steps on the left, creating in this case something which looks like my first take on the Allyson site, shown on the right:

Where I come in, is to get you from that to this (below, which may be viewed in its full on-line glory):

The GeoCities Classic Blue template is now redefined as a composite of (4) frames.  AllyFrame (painted sienna in the diagram at the right) is the temporary display area, which is alternately filled by selections permanently described in the top and left frames (ie by clicking on anything not in AllyFrame): 

 

 

 

 

 

FrameLeftBot offers scrollable selections from June’s filmography and her incidental appearances on TV and in print.  The Hit Counter also displays from here.

TopFrame allows a visitor access to the Guestbook, to view previous entries or write new ones.  A button labeled author! drives messages from the webmaster into AllyFrame, that may be announcements, responses to Guestbook entries, etc.

Clicking on the image in FrameTopLeft directs (in this case) the viewer to a site where the portrait is for sale, while also displaying a full-sized rendering of it.
