Hi All
If your just considering making a website or have one currently under construction then why don't you 'brighten' it up with some added freebies ! An appropriate Animation, even a very small unobtrusive one goes a long way to making a page look more Interesting. There are loads of free ones in various categories from the link below. Just simply add them to your page by clicking on 'add picture', like any other image. What about changing your 'customers' / Viewers default PC Cursor to one that is more 'fun' and relevant to your particular kind of website. It's easy to do but only works with Internet Explorer, but since 90+ % of all browsers are IE it's not really a 'problem' Just add the code below to your project using the 'code' button. You have to have the code on each page you want the Cursor to be seen on. 1) <body style="CURSOR: url('CURSOR NAME.ani')"> 2) <body style="cursor: url('http://www.YOUR SITE NAME HERE/CURSOR NAME.ani')"> 3) <style type="text/css"> body {cursor: url('bird.ani');} </style> 4) <style type="text/css"> body {cursor: url('http://www.YOUR SITE NAME HERE/CURSOR NAME.ani');} </style> Just upload a cursor and change the 'CURSOR NAME' to what ever you uploaded. Make sure the 'case' of the letters AND file extension is the same as your code ! No.s 1&3 are if the cursor file is in the same folder/location as your HTML file and 2&4 are if you have to place the cursor file in a differnt location/server. PLEASE NOTE.. alot of 'free' web hosts (and some paid) do not for some reason work with '.ani' (cursor) files. So if you get a server error page you know why, hence the need to be able to give a link elsewhere ! Basically the above codes are slightly different but do the same thing, try what ones work for you, personnaly I upload all of them to make sure it definately works ! But then I'm mad.There are lots of differnt free Cursors to choose from in the link below.. Andys Animated Cursor Andys Quality Free Gifs Any Problems just ask... Bruceee Cheers Andy |
