What do you want help with? HTML? making your images display? Or
making items available for download?
For HTML, go here:
http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/General/Internet/WWW/HTMLPrimerAll.html
Read the whole thing. Print it out. You'll need to refer to it often.
For images, you have to save them as a .gif or .jpg. If it's a
photo, save it as a 72 dpi .jpg. If it is something with big, flat,
colors, save it as a .gif. To keep things simple, don't use capital
letters in filenames. Your file paths have to be correct, also. If
you have your images in a subfolder called "images," your image tag
will go something like this:
<img src="images/foo.gif">
If you don't have an "images" subfolder (or directory), I'd recommend
making one.
I wouldn't worry about making items available for download until you
get the HTML basics figured out. Then you can ask the next question.
