Clint and All:

I do have a Website, but it is 4 years old. The company that set it up is no
longer in business. I do have a Hosting company, (they call themselves
that), that I pay $20 per month. I have so many changes that I would like to
make, but when I go to my web page and try to edit, it will not let me. I do
not know whom's hard drive has this information stored. As you can tell, I
am lost here. I would like to have control over my WebPages as most of you
do, so I can make changes to keep up with the times. I can fix any TV that
you put in front of me, and I am computer literate, but for the life of me
domains throw me for a loop. My website has 5 pages, and I need to change
them all, Please if someone could explain this to me in layman's terms.

Perry if you have a website, then it can be accessed either
via their control panel, or an FTP program.  Some hosts only
offer one way, some (like mine) offer both.  If the former,
you have a link and login there with your user and pass.  You
go to the respective folder where the page resides, click it,
open it and modify it, then save it.  If you added a link to
download or view an image, you must then upload the image.
It could be in the same directory/folder, or another (in my
case, I use folders called 'images', 'images 2', etc.) then
you must using the proper HTML code reference to that image
within the HTML code of the page where the link is.

If they only offer the FTP method, this is similar, except
you access your site via an FTP program.  Most are free.  You
have download the page to your HD, modify it, then save it,
then upload it again back to the same location using the
program.

Of course you have to know HTML code in order to do these
type things, so don't attempt anything until you know it, you
could really mess up a page.  And also, ALWAYS keep a copy of
ALL you pages for a backup in case you do mess anything up.

As for images, they can be of many types.  With a digital
camera, the image is simply uploaded to the server.  With a
camcorder, you can do it, but need a video capture card to
'capture' a frame or still of video, then save/upload it.
35mm photos can also be used, but of course they must first
be developed then scanned in order to be uploaded.
