Resources/Help For Webtv Users!

© Virginia Marin

Being a webtv user, I understand how difficult it is, at times, to obtain the "good stuff from which great home pages are made." This is serious business for us webbers who can solve most problems by simply knowing where to go for help, as well as the locations for those good things in life, that are hopefully still free. It is not my intention to duplicate those wonderful help sites already on the internet. Instead, I am providing to webtv users the URL's of those sites which I consider above average-- those sites from which I have received the most help.

In Alphabetical Order

1. B.J.'s World. A treasure chest filled with different home pages! Webtv users will not believe what Barb has accomplished with Webtv! Send her an email and be prepared for a wild one in return! Colorful, with terrific animation.

2. Draac's. Can't do tables. Can't frame a photo. You will after you study at this site! One of the best table sites I have found. If directions befuddle you, Draac's Monkey is for you! You may loose the URL but you will NEVER forget the name. It's Draac's!

3. Everything Webtv. A view of Webtv's three main parts.

4. Links For Webtv.

5. RCTY's Help Site. Everything you need at one location.

6. Transloader Help. Here it is! The transloader and how to use it! Teaches how to set your F-keys. Explains the validator. The directions at this site are probably the clearest anyone could find. This was the ONLY instruction site from which I was able to learn its use. The Transloader is the only way Webtv users can upload graphics themselves. Otherwise users must depend on wonderful friends to do it for them. Geocities, Angelfire and other "big names" recognize the Transloader. At present, Suite101 does not. I have a wonderful and generous with her time manager who helps me in this area at the Suite.

7. Webtv Rulz! The site from which I built my first home page at geocities. Bridget is a gem! This is an all-inclusive site. Nothing is missing: sound files, validator, transloader, graphics, hexidecimal color charts, HTML tutorials. Geocities allows remote linking from this site for Webtv users only. But don't try it outside of Geocities.

This list will get you started. Watch this page for frequent updates. And coming soon! My favorite graphics and background sites.
