BUILDER'S
TOOLBOX
There comes a time when you will want more Web tools, so we thought you would appreciate the following list of authoring and graphics tools for both Mac and Windows machines. These tools will make writing and tagging your Tripod homepages easier, and enchance your pages with colors, images, and special effects.
Some of these are free resources -- isn't the Web an amazing place? If you find something you love, send its creator a note of thanks. They are providing a wonderful service. Some of these tools are shareware -- if you like a program and use it, send its developer the $10-20+ that they ask for. It's not much to pay for our Web-making sport.
