Site designed in Webstyle 4

[Jimi King]

I used a Webstyle 4 template for the following:

I did end up tweaking the HTML myself here and there, but overall it saved me a lot of time on layout and mouseovers etc.

JK,
Top uncomplicated web page design.

Why thanks Rupert.

Although to be fair, the layout is pretty much as the template. All I really did was alter the content.

Jimi,
It works well
I am curious as to which HTML editor you used?

[Jimi King]

I used Notepad (or Wordpad). Just right click in Internet Explorer and select "View Source" and make any changes there.

Hi there,

Site looks great, was just wondering what you used for your pictures i.e. how they blend in with each other in the template, is this via another program or with Webstyle?

Also how the pictures throughout the page are placed, whenever I post pictures on my site they always have to either be centred, left or right, can't seem to post them like you would using a word document. I'm used Dreamweaver 8.

thanks

The blends were done in Xara using the linear transparency tool.

As for the picture placement, I assume that you are wanting to wrap the text around an image. I guess you could use the new Repel feature in Xtreme 4, I haven't personally had much luck with that. I don't really have any experience with Dreamweaver either.

However if you want it in plain old HTML, just place the following code alongside your block of text and it will wrap itself around the image:

<IMG SRC="yourimage.jpg" BORDER="0" ALIGN="right" VSPACE="5" HSPACE="5">Your text goes here, etc.

Obviously if you want to place the image on the left of the text change the alignment accordingly. The VSPACE and HSPACE commands will put a few pixels of blank space around the image so that your text doesn't butt right up to it. If you need more or less space then adjust the figures accordingly.

BTW don't use Word for creating or editing HTML. It'll add so much extra nonsense to the document you just wouldn't believe it. Just open the page from your hard drive in Internet Explorer, right click and select "View Source". This will open up Notepad. Just edit the HTML, save the changes and refresh the page to see the result
