It's not the best but it's free and I haven't been bothered to find alternatives. Basically, when you have a webhost, you find out where the upload server is (something like "myfiles.hostname.com" or a million variations).

Thanks kupo! I'll check out that site and see how it works out, I'm sure it'll be fine to fulfill my sister's needs.

Make a background in your fave graphics package, cut it up into little pieces, do the maths and bingo! a functional website with some seriously unneccessary code).

Your website doesn't look bad at all! I don't see why you say that, but perhaps I just don't know much about sites in general, hehe. But, I'll keep that Frontpage 2000 in mind in case other methods of coding doesn't work.

Ah yes, I've heard about using Notepad and how it works extremely well...I'm not quite sure if the computers at the college uses IE or some other browser, so it might be safer to use one that applies to all brower types.

I believe the school's computer's browers are up-to-date and really not that old, I hope. If so, it'l be fortunate for us.

Because if you already have the content, and you "just" need to present it in a pretty way on the web (in other words, if teachers are not going to ask your sister about HTML), please just drop me an e-mail, and tell me exactly what you need and what you already have.

Oh no, learning the html isn't part of the website or the assignment (thank goodness too, otherwise we're doomed I tell ya! ). It's merely for the presentation for the project. My sister hasn't really progressed too much; she'll still deciding on the idea, so she told me she might schedule her presentation sometime late February or early March (March is the latest). Thank you for your offer to help, but my sister and I don't want to impose on you so I'll just try to learn it myself. Besides, I need to know how to do this myself anyway.

Thank you again to you both for your help and information! If I have any other questions (most likely, lol), I hope you both will not mind if I ask for more advice or assistance. Thanks again!

EDIT: Haha, right after posting about asking more questions, I just remembered I have another question. ^^;; Okay, after I download the FTP client, this should be able to upload all of the contents onto your site, right? But, you need to find a site that can host your contents, right? I'm not sure if I'm using the right term or making any sense...
