My Website

[anthony]

Hi Guys,

Being ignorant of the ins and outs of website design I needed a simple and foolproof way of doing it. I did use the freewebs jobby for a little while but was regularly frustrated by it dropping out whilst trying to upload. So I went back the facility provided by my ISP - formerly telewest.

Anyhows, it is a bit basic, but absolutely fine for my little collection of astro photos.

I have been reprocessing all of my old images before posting on the website. This is taking more time than I can afford at the moment, but it is a pleasing task.

Feel free to have a poke around.

Very nice images, and not a bad site for a free tool job. You need to check out your counter, it's knackered, and you might want to add a little section detailing the equipment you use to get those cracking pics. It seems to be the in thing, and I have to say I've kinda come to expect it now, we are all keen to know exactly how big a scope and how sensitive a camera it took to get that kind of shot.

Kit page - good point.

Most of it is at the hands of the starlight express sxv h9 mono camera with lrgb filters attached to a Wo 80mm scope

Nice one

Lot of work getting a web site up n' running.

Good luck with it

If you ever need to branch out from the free website build packages,

I can highly reccomend this software http://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/index.html

Best one I've used to date and I've tried most out there

Very nice indeed Anthony. I would like a website too, but as yet I have nothing to put on it image wise.

I am pleased Kenny 10 B asked about the hardware you used to reap these great pictures. I am searching for a dedicated CCD myself, and it is always a great help to see what different cameras have delivered. Although I realise there is the processing component of an image too.

Great site you have, and will develop as you put more classy images like those on it.

That's very nice Anthony, and you have some 'cracking' images on there too.

I use my ISP's free web-hosting, but didn't use their web-page builder. Instead, I constructed mine off-line, using commercial software.

BTW, one constructive comment, on your web-site, is that it's a bit impersonal. I think that's its always nice to read a little bit about the guy behind the images, and his/her gear. Just personal preference mind.

Personally I build web sites using a combination of MS Frontpage and good old HTML text editing. If you start to get too fancy with Flash and Java you end up having compatability problems and it's a nightmare trying to get everyone to see it.
