Greetings from Hong Kong

Hi all, it's a pleasure to be here!

I'm currently staying in HK for a while, at least
until the holiday season has faded...simply enjoying
the wonderful food and climate, what a great place!

I look forward to this forum, where I hope to be
able to help my friend build an art website to
sell his paintings.

Have a wonderful holiday and all the best!

Cheers,

Robert

 

art websites

Helping your friend sounds a good idea! Get him/her a blog too!

 

Welcome To The Forum's

 

Good idea, fairdoes. I've considered that.

But what about if he doesn't like the templates
available with the blog? He is very picky, and
I don't think he will just accept any template.

It would be great to have a specific art template,
where we can display thumbnails easily.

Cheers,

Robert

 

With wordpress.org or Blogger (most popular choices) you can edit the templates. Blogger also do free photo hosting, and you can choose to sftp the blog onto the website if you prefer (rather than at BlogSpot). There's a few new blog services that I haven't checked yet, but they have good reviews, so far!

For example -

Hi Robert...welcome to the forum!

 

Thanks for the help, fairdoes!
I guess I need to re-create the template
for it to match his needs. That's fine, I was
just hoping for an easier way, as I have my
own websites and blog to do as well.

But the more I think about it, it seems the
blog will be a good way to present the
thumbnails as individual entries.

Thanks again!

Robert
