This will guide you through downloading and assembling your complete kit for
web-authoring.
Firstly get the basics....an HTML editor. Choose from the Yahoo directory listings to decide which one you want. I
recommend Frontpage if you are new to the Net; otherwise you could go for NetObjects Fusion. However, make your own choice
based on the review links you find.
Next to jazz up your site get some graphics and GIF animation software. Ulead provides
a superb collection.
