Have you wished you knew how to make your own web page? It really is easier than you think.  Find out how with MTN's Web Design Workshop.  Each of four 3-hour class sessions is half demonstration of topics and half hands-on, working with the instructor to build a successful web page, with links and graphics. You'll learn about the basic HTML language, then go on to web design issues like site navigation and color schemes. We'll demonstrate several kinds of web page editors so you can see which one works for you, and you'll build graphics you can use on the web. This class is for both Macintosh and Windows users.  Class size will be between 2 and 5 people, so you won't be lost in the crowd.  At $85 for a 12-hour course, it's certainly the best computer training deal in town.
