Hey, now that's a great idea! I was wondering how to fill
all the spare time between 12:30AM and 7:00AM...

;-}

I would love to do a Kate-like web site. Comcast has
changed their web-building tools and I have not been able to
figure it out. <sigh> There must be some software which
helps with this stuff...

I would actually consider making this type of skirt for
money, however the kilt will always remain a "share my DNA
and I'll make it" project.

Yes! It would give you something to do during those long achy nights
before you get your surgery!!!

Check for a message board for Concast users, maybe even a newsgroup?
You aren't the only one trying to figure things out, I'm sure, and
someone has figured it out and loves to help other people.

The other dancers would probably be delighted to have a special skirt
made especially for them. An ideal target group.

Indeed!

Good idea, I'll check it out.

The parents of these kids (my DD and DSIL excepted) seem to
have enormous piles of extra $$$ to fund the activity. So
there is very likely a good market for my skills. The woman
who mentored me while I was making the "practice kilt" urged
me to start doing it professionally. Maybe I could take on
five or six a year...but not kilts!

You should be able to set your pace as you prefer. Limiting your output
makes your product "rare" and therefore, more desirable. Human nature
being what it is. Price accordingly. ;-)

You can build your pages on your own computer, then upload them to the
Comcast site. I build all my pages with PC-Write; any text editor
willing to output plain text will do, but PC-Write can be adjusted to
suit the job and your habits of working. (It does insist that
extensions have no more than three characters, so I have to rename
index.htm to index.html after uploading.)

I wouldn't touch Comcast's page-building tools with a ten-foot pole;
they turn out trashy code.
