While I've been using this site for years, I'm really not finding exactly what I want there. Anyone else use an alternate site I can look at?

I'll take a stab at that, though it'd be nice to take a look at others people have done.

Here's one I'm particularly pleased with.

With lots of complex CSS, a little bit of Javascript and a bunch of HTML wizardry. Grin

I basically created the book and all of the pages using HTML. Then I pulled all of the original content off the profile page and stuck it into separate containers, then put those containers onto the pages of the book (this is where the javascript came in). Then, using CSS, I made the pages turn when you clicked on them or one of the links in the Table of Contents.

I found something that looks okay to me. Still would be nice if there were more sites to choose from.

You should try Dusty's suggestion. It's user friendly. Just find a pic for your background and save it to a image host site. Then plug the url into the designated slot... set the colors... and grab the code.

Or, if you are feeling frisky... Reider and Pryss created a code for a transport webpage that is easily adaptable to creating your own home page. (if you know basic css and html) http://forums.utherverse...teleporter-Web-Page.aspx

Good luck to you.
Laz.
