| ~Geocities Tutorial~ |
 |
| It took me sometime to figure out all of the crap any one can do using geocities. Just like most people, I had trouble adding pictures, music, and other crap I realized that you can't add. Well I hope by me revealing my tips and tricks I can help others not to hate their geocities. :) |
| ~Adding pictures~ |
|
| Well I hope most people know how to add a simple geocities picture (add-ons then choose pic) and also how to increaze and decreaze the size of the pic. You know using the scrolls in the tip of the picture(s). |
| ~Uploading pictures to a web site~ |
| It took me sometime to realize that geocites does not take Bitmap pictures only GIF or JPEG. Why is this because Bitmaps are not for online uses. But if you really have a bitmap picture that you like the best suggestion I can give is to download a converter or any program that deals with GIF. Like for example a animated GIF maker works fine. |

| ~Creating Banners~ |
| Plain old Paint program won't help much for creating banners or pictures. A stronger program is needed. Yes this is where 23.0 MB is worth having. Good old Paint Shop Pro does the trick. If you have dial up connection have fun downloading :)... |
|
| ~Adding Music~ |
| Adding music to a web site that hard? Nah piece of cake.. Note - Only mid and wav files can be played with out the hassel of downloading since the file is so small. Yes mp3's can be uploaded to geocities but there is the download wait .... |
|
| ~Uploading crap to geocities~ |
|
| The hardest thing to do using geocities is UPLOADING.....So I'll just shut up now and give my useful hints. 1) make sure that when uploading a file that the characters are not long. For best results upload only from your Desktop |
| 2) Rename your File if its more then 8 characters!! Example FF3.mid instead of Finalfantasy3.mid. |
