Hi don. I thought I'd add my reply here instead of to the earlier post you had below.....
from an earlier post down, you said:
"Hey, thanks! I couldn't get it to work with the player, but I did figure it out finally. I also used your scaled down version of the song (another thanks). I have the db Power Amp and love it, just didn't know how to get it that small LOL. And I knew about the AF banners. I just start changing things from the source code of the page and forget to take it all out everytime. I ended up with three of them before I finally remembered to delete it. LOL"
my comment:
well I am so glad that you used that smaller file and you will find that dbpoweramp is quite easy to use....
also notice a neat feature of that application:
that if you hover over the sound file on your computer and right click, you will notice that the dbpoweramp installation gives you an option in the R/C menu to "convert this", choose that, then a small .app window comes up, chose the format you want to convert it too like if it's .wav, like your first file was, I converted it to .wma and I chose Mono instead of stereo and also some other things there that got the file size down,(play with the settings and see what you get...)
and I also told you that I had created an mp3 and converted using a smaller file option there and got your 7mb to a 600kb file doing that...but I posted the .wma for you because that one is 300kb and it still sounded good....
you should really change your code on your page to embed instead of bgsound because netscape, mozilla browsers recognize the embed not the bgsound, and IE recognizes the embed code now, and netscape browsers are widely used by people now.....but I still like to use the one I posted for you in your previous comment.....or the one I left on my test page..

I said:
"you should really get an index.html homepage so that your angelfire addy will default to your homepage...."
You asked:
I wonders "How do you do this?". LOL
well it's not hard at this point because your just starting out....
just rename your excisitng page to index.html use all lower case like that......index.html is better to use then index.htm, btw.
or you could create a different hompage, call that one index.html, if you like, and use this excisitng page now as an album page named as the picpage1.htm.......and then use a navigation link to this page, and other album pages you might build to your site...
however if this is the only page your planning then rename it.....or it's up to you to leave it as is, but it makes for easier url if you don't have to type the picpage1.htm to it.....
all you would need to do if you rename is just use this url:
https://www.angelfire.com/blog/donspage.com
and it will bring you to your home index.html page by default.....
