Were you proud after building your first website?

    When I first designed my first website with some basic skills learnt from university and managed to get the site hosted, i was really proud.

    The site no longer exists but thinking of the site now, it wasn't the best site but I learnt lots whilst building it.

    Were you proud after building your first website and thinking back now, was it a good website?

    Oh yes- Ive only just finished my first site. Ive been making it in Kompozer and little things that I now know took days to figure out, I reckon I could do it in a fraction of time another go round.

    Any way I keep logging into it just to look at it and the thought anyone on the planet can do the same is fantastic,

    im biased but its not bad for a first attempt either

    Ya, its a great feeling to have your own site.
    Even now also my first site is the best one.
    Others are not as good as the first one.

    Yes, I was! It was nothing but a forum, like this, but I was proud of it. The more energy I put into it, and the more members I got, the better it became. I just wish I could have kept up with it. It's lost somewhere in cyberspace now...LOL.

    I remember my first website was the classic model of dark background and white text with no tables and no images

    I was very proud. My first website was basically a page that had a pretty decent header, navigation, footer, map legend and a google maps API that I pretty much put together myself(which really was a pain, because I didn't know a whole lot of javascript). I built the database with xml and it loaded into the map. Its not up anymore though, because I can't afford the hosting without getting nothing in return.
