Basically this is for people that know how to create a web page using the programming language called HTML.

What you have to do, is create a file on your local C: drive called default.htm  In that file, you'd have have HTML code that would either display the photos or links to the photo files that are in your Personal Home Page (PHP) folder. Then you would upload the default.htm file to your PHP folder. Then, if someone went to your PHP folder and didn't enter a specific file name in the URL, it would display the default.htm page.

If you don't know HTML, you should just upload pictures to your PHP folder and use the links as they are listed in your PHP folder directory listing by going to "My Personal Home Page" from the "My Account" menu.

thanks for the reply. I'll read it four more times and then ask you what you just said.
