Why do ppl use geocities its the crappiest host besides angelfire.
So y do u use it? prohosting is wayyyy the hell better! http://free.prohosting.com
you get 20 megs,1 gig transfer and you can remote link plus they have a way better webpage builder. I hate it when i have to click save target as then when the save thing appears its a html file!! I only use geocities if prohostin are updating their severs & for images.plus whats better about prohosting is that u can get emailed the pagees u created wich means u can download your page and upload them to a new host I upload this new template I found wich i think is cool http://wave.prohosting.com/~ocjoint/index.html thats what my site looks like for now x) back to the issue there are way better hosts then geocities like www.crosswinds.net they offer unlimited web space and bandwith BUT no remotlinking wich is not all that bad to me since u can just have ppl go to your site and download from there BUT the bad thing is that you have to wait 2 days before u can login unless u pay 2.95 to get it activated the same day wich I didnt do.Now for your images,maybe u want to upload that certain picture but when u look at the file size your like Whoa!!! this picture is bigger then my game's file size!!! then i suggest u use www.cliparthost.com they offer free image hosting for seven days i know your like 7 days? That sux BUT it doesnt because you can reduce your images size dramaticly if u seen my megamanxlegacy pic of zero.When i first uploaded it to my site it was about 700 kb.When i reduced the size it was 23 kb. wich means it will load faster and it will help you out on webspace BUT the quality will go down a bit but it doesnt matter if you care about your space, would you rather have a real high quality pic and have like 5 megs left for whatever or would you have a decent quality pic and alot of space left. all im saying is that you dont have to put up with angelfire and geocities crap I hope you like this article
