How does one get one of those .com websites (domain name right?)

What's the difference between a .com, .net and .org?

Where do you go to find all the pretty graphics and so forth I see on peoples websites?

How do you make a nice logo?

How do you put that logo on your pics like Adam and Daniel do? (watermark I think it's called?????)

Anybody want to come live at my house and help me do this LMAO! I see many hours of frustration and beating my head against my monitor coming up!

Now if only I could also get my husband to sit still and come up with a name....Franchino Reptiles will do but something even more "unique" might be fun and I suck at stuff like that! LOL

A domain name can be purchased via many different means and at differnt rates for different amounts of time. You can purchase from godaddy.com, networksolutions.com, dantor.com, just to name a few.

.com stands for commercial business
.net is usually used by companies that provide internet acess (.net/network)
.org is for non-profit organizations

Graphics can be done with graphics programs. The primary graphic program is Adobe's Photoshop, but its like $600. There are others that are less expensive but not as popular (paint shop pro, etc). Th e watermark Adam uses is his logo that is layered onto the picture and then that layer transparency is turned up until it blends nicely.

Logos are usually done in graphic programs too, but most often illustration programs like Adobe Illustrator (which also has a high price tag)

Hope that helps.
