I found all of the pictures on the Internet. Most of them were from news sources like CNN, MSNBC, USAToday, New York Times, Washington Post, etc. Believe it or not, some of the best photos came from newspaper sites in places like Delaware, Seattle, and London. If I can remember more, I'll get back to you. In the meantime, if you come across any other websites with quality pictures, I'd be grateful for the URLs. I would really like to archive them. At some point, these pictures will disappear from the Net, so I'm trying scarf them up while they are still available. I used to be a pretty decent novice photographer in my twenty's. I can't draw worth beans, so I had to learn how to paint with ISO 200.I had to retouch a great percentage of the images because I enlarged most. I used Paint Shop Pro, an older version that was available as shareware. Newer versions are available, but Jasc wants a hundred dollars or so. It is not rated very high compared to some of the other ones you can find for comparable money. PhotoShop is usually considered to be the best image editing software.
As far as the page itself is concerned, you wouldn't believe how rudimentary my knowledge is of the HTML language. There is no way I could learn much more because of how immensely difficult reading is for me. There are a bunch of books out there. I have had to get good at squeezing a lot out of a little.
How's DreamWeaver?
