You can make Google's home page redirect to yours, but it's messy.

Yer, I couldn't get a blank page for me to paste the html into. Google pages would've been useful when i was just starting out.


There must be a way to just get a blank page to work on?

Hmm... well, you could always just save the HTML in notepad or wordpad as a .htm file and upload it: you just wouldn't be able to edit it via googlepages.... but that would just put you back where you were with Angelfire's advanced editor, sans ads, so I guess that suggestion wasn't all that helpful.

Honestly though, basic HTML in notepad isn't hard to learn, and for your purposes you really don't need to be skilled in anything beyond tables to make the site look great.
http://www.webmonkey.com/webmonkey/authoring/tables/ should have everything you need, if you haven't found that already. Work on your header image in Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro, and you'll be set.

You can have plain HTML pages in Google. Just click 'Edit HTML' when you're on a page and paste it in. You can still edit it with their tools after that as well. Like: http://whamilton42.googlepages.com/blaha

I have been using webmonkey and writing the html, did the second page from scratch more or less. I don't mind it being just without the adds, will try saving it into notepad and uploading it.

I got to that stage but I couldn't seem to get the font and background how I wanted it, or remove google's settings.

Preview screenings. We need to get people into preview screenings. Producers pay attention to feedback from previews and often re-edit films as a result of it.

That's what I wanted to know. Cultivate sources in New Line, apparently.

EDIT: Just reading the topic on Cittagazze. Give the poor people a chance, all three of you lunging on them in the space of 5 posts... :P

Updated!

There's now a Chris Weitz page on the website and also Tom Stoppard has been added to the honorary members list.

A philip pullman page is currently under construction too, partly done and you can get to it but it doesn't say what I want it to say yet.
