I plan on only having one, and directing people to click it once per visit...i wont be hiding my intentions either. I see no point in it.
It doesn't work. Trust me. Don't even waste time trying to get it going.
If you think people may help out, rether just have a PayPal donate link.

Originally posted by huckleberryhoundGood, your time is much better spent practising something with at least some pay-off.

Don't spend money on a CSS script. There are numerous free template sites. Grab some and play with them after you've played around on w3schools like DS said.
Just play around with these until you get what you need.
Also, maybe get yourself WAMP. It installs Apache, MySQL and PHP. This means you'll have a small web server on your PC and can play around locally to your heart's content. Once WAMP is running, you'll be able to point your browser to http://localhost/[possible sub directory]/ and check out the site there.
You can then even try out the likes of WordPress etc. locally and just upload to your host when you're happy.

Youtube is fine. I may feature PHlab's aswell if he wants me to...and anyone else who's up for it.

You can change the filename to the proper file and can toy with the video size to match the size you want or need.
Or just stay with youtube.
BTW my site was created in publisher. I know it gets busy with everything I have on it, but you can work out whatever you don't want.
Although Publisher offers the ability to upload the site to your domain, I still use dreamweaver to upload. Dreamweaver is easier to see what files you are uploading and alows you to only upload pages/files you want instead of the entire process.
