Title: Putting up a web site Post by: 2ML67 on August 31, 2005, 12:52:06 pm Now considering that I am basically completely computer illiterate just how hard is it and how much would it cost. I keep getting e-mails from people asking about doing engine swaps. They almost all want to know if I have a web site to show my work so I am considering doing such a thing. Any help or advice much appreciated. Please also keep in mind that I am on very slow dial up with AOL if that matters. Dan

www.angelfire.com/mb/HouseboatsNorthern and http://www.angelfire.com/mb/firearminstructors/ Both are pretty simple to set up. I will show you when I come down next, when you show me how to put on an air filter ::) Title: Re: Putting up a web site Post by: lacelles on September 01, 2005, 08:24:19 am Hi Dan
I've done a few web site and I can do yours if you want (if you are not on a big rush, I have to finish my engine (complete rebuild), so you can do my swap in January). I have a friend that host for me (very cheap).. this is the web site I did.... www.pourvoiriegillies.com www.crfd-sicr.com www.azoteliquide.com/fiero (not fully completed yet) Title: Re: Putting up a web site Post by: fiero308 on September 01, 2005, 08:43:20 am hey Dan; that sounds pretty cool;
just as some info for any prospective 'helpers' - do you have any plans for switching FROM dial up to something a bit faster (assuming it is available in any way?) I expect that is a key item here. You prob can get a satellite based system (ie Bell ExpressVu for one) that will let you download (to your computer) at a pretty good rate; you can't UPload (going out FROM your computer) on that of course but it is something. Anyway, if you DO, I will be among the first to check it out and pass it along to people. I expect you already know the downside of it, tho' - you will start (keep?) getting ridiculous questions from people like me asking if you can do their swap in your "spare time" :D ) and thus do it for CHEAP......... and other such nutso stuff.... But I am sure you know that already....... Sounds like a good idea tho'! Hope you do it. gp Title: Re: Putting up a web site Post by: 2ML67 on September 01, 2005, 10:26:09 am Unfortunately where I live dial up is all that is available, no cable in the county. Wireless is supposed to be available but they want way too much as far as I am concerned so unless I move which I have no plans on doing I am stuck with slow dial up. Was thinking on my next swap I would get a good digital camera and take lots of pictures fo each stage as I go along, then do a indepth write up on the swap. Dan
