How to Decorate a Web Page (7 Steps)


Sign up for a web-hosting package. Sign in to the back end of the website using your assigned username and password.
Open the list of available templates. Select a template with a large amount of white space. 'White space gives a sense of spaciousness and overall neatness to a site,' recommends Entheos Designs.
Select a font style. Fonts are a classic way to enhance your web design. However, remember that the purpose of text on a website is for users to read. Attractive web fonts are available on most computers and work best in dark colors such as black, navy or dark gray. An exception to this rule is with the creation of website headers and menu bars.
Create attractive headers for your website menus. Use basic shapes such as a rectangle or circle to add to the top of your web page. Choose a bold color that matches closely with your logo colors. If you are unable to find close matches in the template, choose a neutral color such as gray or black that complements your logo to avoid the clash of mismatched colors.
Add accents. Consider the products or services your company provides and choose three to four corresponding icons or graphics to separate various sections of your website. Find free icons or graphics from sites such as Freeiconsweb.com or Websitetips.com. Download the graphic, then upload it into your template by clicking the option to insert a photo.
Add photos, but sparingly. Photos work well as the main header of a website or in the center of the main page, when you select a meaningful photo. Enlarge photos on your main page so they are no smaller than the size of the text blocks used in your template.
Preview your web design. If an area seems cluttered, go back and remove an item. Choose 'Publish to web' once you have made the appropriate updates.

How to Create Maintain a Website for Free


Find a free hosting company. When choosing a free hosting company, you should consider the storage allowance, the server software (Cpanel is the most popular) and additional features like Fantastico, which allows you to easily install a range of applications. Some free hosts worth considering are 000webhost ($0.00 web host), and Black Apple Host. Both sites use the free service as an inducement to get users to upgrade to premium services.
Register a free .tk domain. Tokelau is a territory of New Zealand in the Pacific that allows anyone to register a .tk URL for free. Obtain your (DNS) Domain Nameserver settings from your hosting account and configure the URL to point to the server.
Choose a CMS and install it on your hosting account. There are a handful of open-source CMS packages, with Joomla and Drupal being among the most popular. Wordpress and Moveable Type are simple to set up, but aren't really suitable for doing anything beyond blogging.

How to Plan a Party for 200 People


Come up with a budget. A party for 200 people, catered or not, is going to cost a lot of money. Decide how much you have to spend, then designate the amounts accordingly.
Find a location. Unless you live in a mansion, you probably don't have room for 200 people at your home. Find a conveniently located venue that is within your budget and can hold a large number of people.
Decide on a theme, if desired. Some popular themes include tiki, Hawaiian, pirates, black tie, disco or '80s. Use this theme to organize the decorations, invitations and food choices.
Organize your food and drink options. This may be one of the difficult parts of planning a party for large groups. Catering might be the easiest way to do this, as you can simply tell the catering company how many guests you have, and they will provide the food and drink accordingly. If you want to save a little money, you can provide the food and drinks yourself. A general rule of thumb is to have 1 lb. of food per person, plus dessert and beverages.
Send out the invitations. There are a variety of ways to do this, including traditional paper invitations, personal e-mails or an online invitation service. Sent the invitations out about 4 weeks before the party to give your guests ample time to RSVP.
Choose your entertainment. Hire a live band or DJ, or set up a CD player with a variety of music. Also consider using a karaoke machine.
Set up early. Give yourself at least three hours. Get to the venue early, check in with the caterers and entertainment to be sure everything is on time and ask for help from friends and family to set up.
