Hi Caroline,

Firstly, I strongly recommend copying web page URLs directly from your browser
and pasting them into emails instead of typing them out. It prevents typing
errors. Your pages are really at:

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~myjukerfamily/

One letter missed out, which makes all the difference. :-)

Another strong recommendation - make yourself a home page, so that when people
go to your site they are greeted in the first instance with something from you,
rather than an index of what you've put on your site that has been generated by
Rootsweb. Much nicer to see. :-) What you have on your "juker.html" page
would make a fine homepage.

Your home page should be named index.html - this will ensure that when you give
your address as shown above, it will automatically go to that "index" page.
This is what I've done on my site (see link in my signature).

Have you uploaded those photos to where your pages say they will be?

I see only one picture on the page called juker.html - is that what is supposed
to be showing? If it is, then that is working fine. I don't see any image
placeholders elsewhere on the page indicating missing images.

Hope this helps you along, Caroline. If you have more questions, please don't
hesitate to post them so we can help you further. :-)

Kind Regards,
