Good day to you!

You have entered the Landlady's Attic on Artists-In-Residence, which offers free personal, business, and organizational Web sites exclusively to those in the Performing and Visual Arts and the Humanities.

Here you will find links to information I hope will help residents build their Web sites. Why did I call this the Attic? Where else should you find webs in a well-kept Victorian house?

The links were taken from my BookMark site and cover Web development, Web art, and Web design aids. Just like an attic, there is a lot of stuff to sort through; however, I have tried to organize them in a manner that will help residents find what they seek. Click on the subcategory listed to be taken directly to those links. BTW, I have not checked them in a long time. Some are broken or don't go where they used to go. Let me know if you find them.
