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:

Website inquiry ... Message-ID:
20020311.084438.-561017.0.jdaurril@juno.com 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. Joe

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 |

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. |
