G'day close buddies of mine 
Need to pick your brains a bit now but I'm not sure if I can explain myself very well in what I'm trying to do, but here goes anyway .....
If you look in my new site, Moorna Publications, on the 'Meet our featured authors' page you'll see that I've got mugshots of a couple of our top writers with a bit of blurb beside the photo, but what I'd like to be able to do is instead of having the blurb starting at the bottom of the photo, have it running alongside of it and carrying on below the photo, but I can't work out how to get the blurb where I want it, so can you explain in words of one syllable, two at max, so I can understand what you computer geeks are talking about 
I'm pretty happy about how much I've taught myself up to now, but this bit has me beat.
Thanks in advance. |

Hello,
I went in and changed the alignment of your images for you. Have a look and tell me if that's what you meant...
This is done where you upload the image (I clicked the image I wanted to modify to highlight it, and then clicked the image icon at the top), below the 'source' field there is an option called 'alignment' and I set this to 'left' and then set the spacing to 5 px (the spacing is so that the text doesn't touch the image, it just looks nicer).
If any of that was unclear just let me know:) |

You're a little gem Marianne, that's exactly what I was trying to do. Thanks for your time and trouble.
I needed to know as I'll be uploding book cover shots and blurb to go with them later and want to do the same sort of thing with them too.
Hey, if ever you get sick of Roger come calling at my office for a job 
How come you're working today and Roger is bludging off again? Lazy sod. |

My good looks, charm and personality are worth far more than all the money in the world mate 
Oh, and we shouldn't forget to make mention of my modesty, cause oh boy, am I the modest one!
Ok, being serious for a moment ....
I just want to ask you if I could run two of your sites from the same email box I use for the one I've just started up with your company?
Would they cause a problem to each other in any way.
Its just that I own two businesses, the publishing company, and a literary/visual arts agency and am now thinking that I'd be interested in having a website for the latter one once more as I closed the one I used to have down some time ago due to problems with the company I used to use to host it etc. |

Hi,
No, you'd need to have a different email address for each one because it identifies you and your account. I'll see if we can change the system in some way to allow it though, because it would be better to be able to have more than one site with just one login.
I'll get back to you on it when I chat to our programmer about it tomorrow. |

G'day mate.
What I'm thinking of is having the one site that would use the ID of moornapublications.com and the other using the ID of joebloggsagency.com or something like that, but both would go through to my single AAPT ISP account in outlook express to save me creating 1001 identities there as that could get very confusing for someone like me.
It also means that I wouldn't miss incoming emails if they could both show up in the single outlook express identity.
I'm open to suggestions from you on it all mate |

Hi Stefan,
You can use the same email address as what you've used already to create another free sites account, you just have to use a different password.
Then you can have all sites forward their emails to your ISP email address so you would have only once place to check your emails and you will never miss any emails that way.
Thank you

Thanks Qads, that sounds fine.
I'll get this first site up and running the way I want it before starting into the second one.
Now I know how Roger keeps track of things .... he uses two different passwords that he can remember easy ... Dumb1 & Dumber1 .... he's only thinking of himself.
Sorry Roger, just joking. |
