EASY STEPS TO CREATING A GUILD WEBSITE PAGE.
Here is SAMPLE MMORPG GUILD WEBSITE using Yahoo! SiteBuilder.
1)Open Yahoo! Sitebuilder. There should be an icon on your desktop once you install it.
2)Click on File and Start a New Page.
3)You can select With Template or Without Template. Yahoo offers many pre-made templates and
backgrounds for your to choose from.
4)Now you can begin to do the following to create your website.
- Create a Navigation Bar or a Menu. Select Insert, then "navigational bar" and "create a new navigation
bar". (You will need to create more web pages before this menu is in full effect for linking purposes
but you can try out different buttons and different styles. You can also customize and create your
own menu if you have your own button graphics or design that you wish to use. If you do not choose
Yahoo! Sitebuilder's set of buttons then click on the "customize" button on the "choose button style"
and insert your own buttons). Drag and position where you want your menu. Decide if you want a
horizontal or a vertical menu
- Add pictures and artwork. Click on Insert "Image" and now you can insert any image you have from
your hard drive to your website. You can resize them as you like. Position your artwork as you like. If
you wish it to be a thumbnail, right click it and select "thumbnail" and choose a size.
- Add text. Click on Insert "Text". Type away your title, message or statement. Choose the right font,
color, font style, etc, and then position the text box accordingly.
- Add a background. Click on Background. Choose either a color or a picture from your hard drive.
- Add background sound. Now you can have your favorite Guild theme song play in the background
while your members surf your site. Just click on Insert "Background Sound" and choose the mp3 or
sound file from your website.
- Add Audio files or video files. Again..if you have Guild Videos or audio clips that you wish to share
with the rest of your members. You can click on Insert Video or Insert Audio and choose from your
hard drive the selected file to display. You can then position where you want the player to show up on
your site.
- Adding tables. You can create tables of all sort. However, in website creation, tables are very useful
for organization and page structure. So adding table would make sense. Some websites are built
entirely from tables with all of the above elements (Text & images specifically) in each box, row or
column. A table keeps things neat and organized and consistent.
- Add HTML codes. If you know a cool HTML code for some special effect, graphics, banner or flash,
you can click on Insert "Code Element" and just paste your favorite HTML code that you might have
found on other websites. This is a good way to plug in cool Flash banners generated from other
websites.
- Create links. Highlight text or click on an image. Then right click and select "Link to." You can link to
your own pages, other website address, a file on your computer or email.(You don't need to do this
with the navigation bar because it will do it automatically for you)
5)After positioning every element, take a step back and preview your website. Click on File, Preview in
Browser.
6)If you are satisfied, then save your page. Choose the name for this web page.
REMEMBER, this is only the beginning! With enough practice, you can create other important pages and
incorporate other elements like forums, slideshow, calendars, and more into your MMORPG guild website.
