BACKGROUNDS.

You can find alot of websites with free backgrounds on the net. Just hit your "Search key" and type free backgrounds.

After you find the background that you want, go to Transloader.com And upload the background to your file manager. If you dont have a file manager yet, go to Geocities
to start building your free website. Use the code below to add the background to your site.

<<>HTML> <<>BODY BACKGROUND="http://www.oocities.org/d_nelson.geo/monst-2.jpg"><<>/HTML>

Click the link below to see what the background in the code above looks like.

http://www.oocities.org/d_nelson.geo/monst-2.jpg

That background is stored in my file mananger. If you would like to use it, go to Transloader.com
and upload it to "Your File Manager." Please do not link directly to the image. To get the address of the background hit your goto button while you are viewing the background, then click show current, and copy, or cut out the address. If you do not know how to use cut, copy, and paste, Click here You will need the address to upload this background, or any other background to your file manager at Transloader.com

If you would like to have your email signature show up above the From: and To: lines Start your code off with these three tags.

<<>/table>
<<>/td>
Add your signature below these three tags! The <<>body bgcolor tag seems to cancel out the effect, so play around with it and let me know if you come up with anything interesting.

If you would like to add Text To Speech to your webpage, or your email here is the code to do it. You can change the words in the code below to what ever you want, but dont forget that more words mean longer load time.
