    Photoshop, is primarily geared for image manipulations, (not for illustrations or draftings) although it contains little aids for vector drawing or illustrations..pencil, pen and shapes..you could click options alt, shift, or ctrl for options, like for straight lines, angle, fixed shapes or whatever.If you want more options for illustrations and vector graphics...you should try CorelDraw or Adobe Illustrator.

    keywords in <meta> tags....

    you could search google to find out more about <meta> or you could click here

    most fall into the pitfall of spamming it in their webpages cause they believe it is a way to gain higher rank.. but actually it isnt, oftentimes it results to suspension (temporary or permanent) of webpages from search engine listings.

    personal point of views..Do's1. A website should have concept. If your website is about games or whatever, it should have that "gaming concept" etc...2. Well-structured, concise and useful content, are the most important components of a successful site.3. Be logical on your content. If your website is geared for tourist destinations, the best way to attract them is to post images, not through writing lengthy paragraphs.4. Think about your audience. Are they newbies which needs clean navigation, direction and interface, are they professionals, or are they advance users which considers simple websites as boring.5. Monitor screen sizes consideration. Personally a website fixed for 1024x768 looks awful in a 800x600 monitor.6. Clear navigation is a must. If your visitors get lost, they would leave the site.7. Test your site in different browsers. Dont stick on IE. Test it on Opera, Firefox, Safari, etc..8. Good color combination. Use "web friendly colors".9. Think about the people who will be maintaining the site. Are they capable of understanding complicated scripts and coding?10. Compress images. We have friendly softwares like photoshop.11. As much as possible, follow W3C standards.12. Keep your site fresh.13. <Meta> title, keywords, description in relation to your content. Dont's..1. Bad Graphic layout. Out of the concept graphics, most creates sites without figuring out first what will it look like in the first place. We have Photohop to aid us on this. Create a layout first in Photoshop, navigation, texts, etc.. then cut it up and creativity follows...coding, scripts, contents etc..2. Microsoft Frontpage Extensions. Its really unprofessional I should say.3. If you can't be rigorously self-honest about your weaknesses and limitations, site output will be poor..Set self limitations. If your a bad writer, get an aid from professional writers..if your not good in graphics, dont pretend as if you are one. Seek the aid from more knowledgeable ones. Be open for suggestions.4. Avoid keyword spamming.

    I think you should consider here the discrepancy, or difference between the time of the server where the forum is hosted and the time in your locality. If it is 5 hours off you should choose a higher timezone. (not necessarily the default time zone of your locality since the basis of Phpbb I think is the time from where it is hosted).

    As far as I know evolution is a continuous, unending process..if somehow this theory is true, I still wonder why do apes still exists nowadays...they should evolve into humans too. Centuries have passed by, apes are still apes and humans are still humans. Humans should have evolved into some higher level of lifeform, 3 legs, four arms or whatever. As far as I could see apes and chimpz on Animal Planet or in Zoos, evolution is still a theory for me.

    Neither good or bad. Frames and Iframes are not bad at all for me..it is a simple way to reduce bandwith consumption of websites. (well aside "cache friendly" websites or simply graphicaly reduced ones). Instead of reloading the whole page page, contents could just be reloaded in frames or iframes. But personally I hate viewing sites full of frames.

    The most annoying thing about Flash nowadays is its now being used for large advertisements...(like in YahooMail). Anyway there are people who blocks flash sometimes especially those with slow dial up connections and low system resources like me. I dont like visiting a full flash site...Flash would be cool though if it will be used as a part of the site like headers or effects etc.., for navbars, nyah!, I personally dont like it. It wont allow you that "open in new page" option. btw..

    Im a bit confused about your question because you mention invisionfree which I assume http://www.zifboards.com/(assuming'>http://www.zifboards.com/(assuming you mean http://www.zifboards.com/)If you dont have the access rights (download and upload) to files in invisionfree, it aint possible. All you could ever do is follow what lxcid told you and use existing available uploaded skins on invisionfree :) or request to the admin of invisionfree to install more skins. I dont know if invisionsfree allows you to edit come codes...but they have this service you could further edit your board, positions etc..(assuming you mean your very own invisionboard in your account here)You could those free invision resource websites like http://www.invisionize.com/ , download skins hacks, portals etc.. and follow instructions regarding uploading and altering files. A read me is usually included. Be aware of what version of Invision board you have.

    Google!

    Simply because..Google is more credible. Results of google are based on algorithm. Its more accurate, relevant, faster and Google frequently reindex sites.

    http://www.akamarketing.com/google-ranking-tips.html

    Google is by far the most popular search engine available today for both ordinary surfers and webmasters alike. Surfers like it because of the highly relevant results it gives and the speed at which it delivers them. This is due to its complex text matching algorithm and of course the Pagerank? system that this engine uses. More on the Pagerank? system later.
    Google is popular with webmasters and Internet marketing companies due to the highly workable ranking system it uses.

    Unlike other engines where information about how the results are obtained are sketchy at best, Google actually publishes information on its site about the results it produces. Hence webmasters have things they can do to produce higher rankings.


    And I like Google's simplicity. It supports lots of languages. And submissions are free, rankings are based on algorithm. I dont like the "pay to have a higher rank" practice of Inktomi+Yahoo+Overture etc.. and Lycos.
