triple x, at PHPMyAdmin: select your database from the list provided (under the PHPMyAdmin & Home link, on the left side). after that, you will see structure-SQL-export-search-query tabs. click on SQL tab. since you have your SQL.sql, use the second option provided (Location of the textfile). browse for your SQL.sql file then load it. i would suppose you have already set your db permissions settings from the CPANEL > SITE MANAGEMENT TOOLS > MYSQL DATABASES. if you use several DBs in your site, you can set up different user permissions from there. then make sure you grant permissions on a MySQL database to a MySQL user (based on the configuration you have in your PHP pages). good luck

Xisto is a very professional hosting. but as pawoodster said, we can help you more if we know what you intend your site to be. the server can handle plain html (as most newbies would use), and it can also handle server-side scripting with PHP and MYSQL so we have a very powerful hosting if you decide to use it. basics you need: >> for html - an html editor. you may be familiar with frontpage already, but you can search the forums for other html editors members of Xisto use or prefer (some just use NotePad). >> FTP - choose an FTP app which you will use to manage your uploads to your hosting space. this has been discussed as well in the forums. >> javascript - for short yet fancy scripting for some cool page effects like "no-right-click", etc. when you decide to raise your web experience as a webmaster, you may try to learn the following later on: >> CPANEL - if you desire to manage stuff in your webhosting space, login to your site's CPANEL. experiment with the features, especially the ready-made scripts there. >> for PHP/MYSQL - Xisto forum has sections devoted to these so you may want to check suggested tutorial links and ready-made scripts provided there. this would take a while to learn, and it would be best to setup a personal web server (on your PC) so you can make initial testing before uploading and tweaking later. this is to make dynamic pages which uses databases. forum members will be able to help you if you have further questions later

i like it image size (in KB) could still be optimized though for easy loading

you're very welcome

ei wassie, i can still remember you having that VERY TALL sig when we were all just starting here actually, i miss that

some search algorithms would ignore it, some would make good use of it. using ALT tags is just one method to help in SEO. u will have no idea what search engine bots would crawl your pages, so it's better to have them for those which will recognize it.

not necessarily a high ranking. if ur domain is a TLD webdesigns, then it would be at least in the first 10 pages of the search page results. ur odowebdesigns would still crop up when keywords used would include +web +designs but there's lots of competition on those keywords. ur domain can still help in getting a good search results with +web +designs keywords but dont expect too much. use other methods as well and don't simply rely on your domain name for a high search ranking.

champage, it all depends on several factors: 1. number of visitors/day 2. size of pictures 3. size of html/php code 4. number of html/php pages 5. miscellaneous stuff embedded (menu images, thumbnails, midi/wavs, flash, etc.) remember, EVERY page access to html/php/images/etc would count towards your bandwidth usage. let's say you have an extremely busy site with 100 visitors a day accessing an *average* of 150KB size of image on a 10KB html/php page with embedded stuff of 30KB. let's say you have an average of 50 pages viewed per visitor/day. let's do the math... 10KB html/php page + 30KB embedded stuff + 150KB images = 190KB x 50 pages = 9500KB/visitor that's already: Megabytes:.....9.2773/visitor Gigabytes:.....0.0091/visitor x 100 visitors = 950000KB Megabytes:.....927.7344 Gigabytes:.....0.9060 (by this computation you already overshoot/exceeded your 500MB bandwidth limit for package #1 - on DAY 1.) and that's only for a day. x 30 days = Kilobytes:.....28,500,000 Megabytes:.....27,832.0312 Gigabytes:.....27.1797 --- now that's for a busy site you can do your own calculations based on your own variables as listed above. newbie sites won't reach that amount of bandwidth in a month so it's safe to say you wont need that much bandwidth yet. if you do, you might want to opt for paid hosting already. here is an online bandwidth calculator for you. KB-MB-GB NOTE1: Computation above is just based on factors/variables provided. there could be other factors which could contribute to bandwidth usage which i am not really sure (like uploading for example). NOTE2: ACTUAL bandwidth usage can be viewed on your CPANEL along with the web logs analysis. NOTE3: web space needed is entirely dependent on the actual total size of uploads you intend to have. you can check this beforehand on the disk where your web site files are located. when you right-click on the root folder of your web site *on your PC*, then PROPERTIES, you will get to know the SIZE of your web site upload.

for what, posts, or banners? for your second batch of banners... with "Pearl".should have been "Perl" without the "a".
