Building a website
Yesterday and today I built this website. It’s a big pain to build a website and it takes a long time. Last night I bought a website hosting package from Hostgator, but right away I found that I couldn’t transfer my domain to this site.
So I called their support line and actually had a good conversation with Nil (from India, I presume), and got that straightened out. This morning I tried to log in, but I realized I didn’t know my username and password, so I called tech support again and was helped by a young woman named Lee.
Then I spent the better part of the day modifying the template so it looks like an artist’s website. I browsed through a number of artist’s websites to get an idea of what I wanted. It’s a big headache to learn a whole new system. Lots of trial and error, over and over, until you learn.
Once I had the basic structure of pages and posts, I added lots of my watercolors and drawings. I think I’m pretty satisfied with it now. I hope it will show my art work so that anyone who’s interested can get an idea of what I do.
