Hello! I'm the new newbie . . .

[NikonErik]

Well, I want to develop my first website. I'm a photographe, and a pretty computer savvy, but I don't know a lot about web design and hosting.

I have a few issues that I need to solve, and things to learn before I can develop a good website for myself.

For starters, the BH control panel is a bit intimidating with all of the abbreviations for everything.

Where can I read-up and figure out what all of that is for?

Thanks ahead of time for any assistance . . .

At the bottom there is a Control Panel Manual, on the left side. You probably are better off just clicking on things and learning that way.

Under xarayatized sites there are live examples of websites that use this software...

If I knew about this one, Id move into this direction, but I didnt, and so now I have static content. Check it out, it looks really nice.

I'll leave your cPanel questions to someone else, but I do have one immediate recommendation for you: JAlbum. It's free software that makes it very, very easy to create a website of photographs (it's not a general-purpose page builder). It's almost all static HTML, so you just have to upload your finished pages to BH, and you're off to the races - no server applications to install, or databases to create. No "CPU exceeded" messages.

I'll send you a "private message" with a link to my website, just to give you a taste - JAlbum contains a bunch of very different skins and substyles thereof, so what you see on my site is just one tiny corner of what's available.
