what advice would you give to someone just starting out ...?

for publishing pages on hometown aol i would suggest to someone who does not know anything about html is to go ahead and publish a home page using personal publisher at keyword pp3. then i recommend they download aolpress 2.0 at keyword 'aolpress', download paintshop pro 5.0 at keyword 'graphics'. aol has offers excellent tutorials and classes on both these programs at keyword 'online classroom'. these two programs are easy to learn and will offer a lot more flexibility in creating your web pages.
