I told you this was a hassle! But it'll be worth it in the end.
Steps: 1. Click the file manager button 2. Click the folder that says Public_Html
Get that far and we'll go from there.

Are you planning to make your site yourself, or do you want to use a site maker?
CFH offers a WYSIWYG editor, I didn't use one when I made mine, but that's up to you.

Either CFH offers a WYSIWYG that's already set up in your directory or you get it by requesting it from one of the menus on cpanel. I'll log in myself and find out where its at.

I couldn't find a WYSIWYG in any of cpanel's fubctions, which means its already in your file manager. Somewhere in your file manager should be a directory called WYSIWYG. Find it and open it. In that directory there should be some sort of program file that should open the editor. I can't tell you for sure, because I deleted my WYSIWYG because it took up 2+ megs that I wanted.
Also, if you're able to, get on AIM and look me up. Website creation is really easy. I'm working with Doyleman on his. I use the handle "TFR 32682", there's a direct link in my profile. I'll be on today at 5:00pm Central Standard Time.
Good luck and let me know if you're still having trouble.

The comp I use at work only has/can run AIM so I'm stuck with that. Also, I'm only ever on AIM after 5pm, sorry.
Send me an email detailing some of the stuff you want on your site (i.e. colors, backgrounds, links, any other stuff), and I'll whip up a template for you.

Way to wuss out man! Your account probably got terminated becaused you weren't using it, either that or your site didn't have their ad banner at the top.
You should've stuck with it man.
After three months of searching, CFH is the absolute best host I have ever found. Not one of the bajillion hosts out there compare to the ease of use, or oper freedom CFH allows you.
Have you seen my site! I can't do that with geocities or anglefire!
Its your loss dude.

I want to use it ya but I don't have time to work on it here at the library. Yeah I've seen yours its nice. I guess I'll try again whever I get intrnet at home.... Dang Opera can't run message boards for some reason. I think they killed my account because I didn't have the banner at the top. I was trying to use it like every day so that couldn't have been it.

They have a group of admins called "Hunters" that randomly check the users sites to ensure that you a. have the banner at the top of every page, b. have not violated your contract buy including non-allowable items, and c. have a functioning page, and not a big jumble mess of nothingness.
My own site has gone under review twice and come out sparkly clean each time.
Like I said before, send me an email sometime about what your are looking for in your site and I'll make up a CFH compatable template for you.
If you can, sketch something out showing how you'd like your site layed out, what color schemes you like and anything else, and scan it or mail it to me if you want (PM for my address if you want to send me a sketch or two).
I am more than happy to help in anyway I can.
Also, if you need any HTML help, check out W3Schools for a great bunch of HTML/XHTML/XML/CSS reference and how to stuff.

All these offers that I am truly grateful for but I would like to do it alone. I can just ask for help when its needed. Plus that way I can make it easier on every one.
