Hi Guys
I'm busy doing a web page design course on Thursday evenings here and it has given me a bit of a boost to have a play useing Dreamweaver.
I'm toying with the idea of designing a kind of recuitment page based on the squadron so I would like to know if it is ok to use some of the images you guys post here on the forums.
If you don't want me to use any of the pics manly things like images of squadron skins that are done or such then please give me a shout here or on my email and i'll not use them.
I'm a real NOOB at webpage design so any and all practice I can get is great.
Cheers
Wardog

Sneaky
Depends on who you are calling a girl
I wasn't planning on pimping the squadron just using it as a practice piece for myself really.

Good Job - and fast
You may want to check some of the Celtic fonts and design elements here on the "Downloads" section of the forums.
http://www.endlager.net/fis/
also
http://www.1001freefonts.com/
One tip would be to prepare your text body in MS Publisher, where you can "justify" columns of text and save as .htm , .html etc. to import or paste into Dreamweaver.
(In my Dreamweaver there is only the option to align text left, right or centre)
http://www.sitepoint.com/ can be handy for newsletters ,sample tutorials etc.

Cheers for the praise and the help sneaky.
I've changed some of the fonts to the gaelic one and i've justified the text. I'm running Adove CS3 and the version of Dreamweaver that comes with it has the justification set already there.
One thing I have been told is that it is harder to make a floating frameset in this version as opposed to others but I'm nowhere near that kind of level yet
Hope you think it looks better now.

Great, improves readability and overall appearance.
May require the Celtic font uploaded as a resource, can't remember if bravenet allows that on free hosting. Could always us it in a graphic (gif banner) to get round that.
