email changed - how do I update on my small hompage?
I have a small web page through angelfire and I just changed email addresses. I updated this information in my angelfire account, but I just checked my homepage and the email link still has my old email address. I can't see a way to change it on the web shell.....will eventually be updated automatically on my page or is there something else I shoud do. Thanks for any help.

Angelfire Email Shutdown
Topic: News
"Angelfire Email" is being shut down next week. This was a very, very old cobrand of Lycos Mail (previously Mailcity) which has not allowed new signups in two years. Members that use the service have already been notified via email several weeks ago, but we felt that it was appropiate to post about it here just in case.

Users of Angelfire Email are encouraged to either signup for a Free Account at Lycos Mail (mail.lycos.com) or they can use Angelfire's own premium email services which are available in many of our for-pay packages. (Note that Angelfire doesn't currently offer an easy web interface for its mail offerings, you are expected to use MS Outlook, Netscape, Eudora, or a similar offline mail tool.)

As a bit a humorous (to me) side note, with this shutdown also goes the most misguided attempt at cobranding site URLs I'd ever seen. The old URL for the site used to be: email.angelfire.mailcity.lycos.com. Doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, does it? :)

Trying to learn about e-mailable forms
Mood:  not sure
Topic: HTML Questions
I tried using the Angelfire cgi script and I got part of it to work - I can e-mail a form, but only the first two fields work - name and e-mail. I used radio buttons and other form inserts that I put in using Dreamweaver MX. However, nothing below the first two fields is showing up when I get the e-mail. I was going to post the code I'm using but it tries to make a form on my post. See this page for my code: https://www.angelfire.com/tx/beautifulsavior/code.htm -- maybe someone can spot something that I can fix.
Thanks.
Marty

Using images as Backgrounds
Mood:  a-ok
Topic: HTML Questions
I just recieved a question from Katie asking how to use a file as your web page Background.

There is only one way to accomplish this task. If you are using Angelfire's basic editor, it doesn't give you the option of choosing an image, so what you have to do is use the advanced editor. When you are in the Advanced editor, scroll down. You should see a line that shows <body bgcolor="" text="">. Change the part bgcolor to background, and in the quotes after the = sign, put the url of the image(e.g. http://angelfire.com/user/name/file.jpg).

I hear that they are not allowing us to now post out pictures anywhere else other than on our site. If that is the case ill am going to move my site. Does anyone know a quick way to copy all the files in the account to your harddrive in a timely manner, rather than do each file seperate. Thanks in advance.


.....And to angelfire

What a shitty move if this is the case.

if not i appologise

Image Help
Mood:  caffeinated
Topic: Image Questions
Hi! I have a problem that I think you can help me with. In the process of preparing to delete my account, I was trying to get all my images back onto my harddrive by viewing each image file, then right clicking the image and saving it. While attempting this, when the image saved, the file name is "webshell" and when I double checked the image on the harddrive, it always ended up being a saved html document of the webshell page! I have repeatedly tried to do this, thinking it was an error, but it keeps on reoccurring. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? My site is nearly deleted except for the index page and the images I still need to get so my website isn't working except for the homepage. Thanks for reading this and please respond soon!

Sincerely,
Jesse

banner ad day 2
Now Playing: why isn't it being fixed?
Why isn't the banner ad problem being fixed? I've written to 'customer support' twice, and I'm sure many other people have done the same. Doesn't anyone from Angelfire ever take a look at this blog? This is no way to force people to upgrade to a pay site. If they do upgrade, it certainly won't be with Angelfire. And as for looking at the pages with Netscape instead of IE...that isn't a solution. The browser isn't the problem, the html coding of the ad is. I know that there's someone here who communicates with Angelfire. PLEASE PLEASE someone alert them and have them fix this problem!

Same problem for everyone...

I have the same problem... but the banner ad covers the submit button for the message board i have on my page. Very inconvenient... I hope it gets fixed soon.
