Free webspace?

[bloodhound31]

Anyone know a reasonable place to go to set up a free website with a simple layout to host some photos and such?

I want to set up a simple photography website for myself, where I have full control over it's layout and content.

A good place to look for this sort of information is Whirlpool (http://whirlpool.net.au), the Australian broadband information site.
There's a thread (http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=95382) in the Whirlpool forums on this subject.

Hi Baz
http://www.webs.com/
I had one and it was OK - image resolution may be an issue?

If the free options don't provide the disk space or facilities your looking for, there are a number of reasonably priced web services available.
For example, I get unlimited disk and unlimited bandwidth for less than $10 a month.
Lots of additional software packages installed for content development, photo albums etc.
The only additional cost would be getting your own domain name, about $25 for 2 years.

Spread the cost with a few friends.

That's great people! Thanks so much.

Thanks to you too Geoff. The only problem with your suggestion is the words "Reasonably priced." when I need something "Free". Thanks for the suggestions though. If the free sites can't handle my stuff then this may prove useful anyway.:thumbsup:

I love how helpful IIS members are. There's nothing you can't find out about with people like this.

God bless you all.

Hi Roobi
I stopped by and was 'Muse'd
Cool!

Cheers mate, its getting there.... needs a bit more work tho me thinks

[bloodhound31]

Thanks to all you guys for your help, suggestions, advice and a couple of very kind offers for extra help via PM. There is a lot of kindness hanging around this forum.

I had a go at the google sites, but it was a bit too complex to get ith going.

Webs.com on the other hand, was a breeze and I am pretty happy with the simplicity of this new site and what's more...it's free!

I can change it at will, I don't have to wait for an administrator to fix or change things and I can update it from anywhere in the world.

Fantastic!

Well here it is. http://barryarmsteadphotography.webs.com/
