Make A Collage Website

Use pictures you've taken or drawn for your collage.


There are many ways to create a website dedicated to displaying pictures, but a unique way to create such a website is to display your pictures as a collage. You will need to create a collage, create an HTML document and find a host for your new website. Fortunately, you will not need any expensive software for this project. The HTML code is pretty simple if you simply copy and paste the code.


Instructions


Create Your Collage


1. Open your web browser, and go to a free collage creating website. Sign up for free membership.


2. Upload your photos, and create your collage using the free collage builder.


3. Save your new collage as "collage.jpg" and remember where it is saved.


Create an HTML Document


4. Open a text editor, such as Notepad.


5. Create your HTML document by typing the code below into your text editor. Type whatever you want between the tags (for example, ).


My Collage Website


Here is my collage!


6. Save your HTML document. Use either an ".html" or ".htm" file extension--for example, "mywebsite.html" when saving your document.


Find a Host


7. Choose the Web hosting provider that is right for you. Values to consider include price, credibility and customer service. Choose a provider that is easy to work with and provides quality service.


8. Choose a domain name (for example, http://www.example.com). Make your domain name easy to remember and type, so all of your friends and family can easily access the page.


9. Load the HTML document (mywebsite.html) and collage (collage.jpg) you created to your host's server. This is generally not difficult. Just find the section of your provider's website that says something like "file manager," then use the application provided to upload your files.


10. Visit your new website, and make sure it looks how you want it too. Try your website in different browsers, such as Firefox and Internet Explorer, because not all browsers display content in the same way.
