Looks great! I run a Webs website too. I'm only using the free version though, and sadly I can no longer make any big changes to my site because of their recent removal of the HTML editor for free memberships. I can only make image, text, and arrangememnt changes, which I do often! I will either have to update to a premium plan or change primary sites to my backup site on weebly. I seem to be exceeding my bandwidth a bit more often too now, something I don't have to worry about on my weebly site which is a plus.
Thanks for sharing your link! Again nice arrangement on your homepage! I also use the WU Rapid Fire stickers on my pages. They work great for this type of setup :-)

Thanks. I too use the "free' version of webs. I can still do HTML. I still am able to use the old version of website builder and not use the site builder 3. Good think I didn't update to that newer version. I didn't like it when they first came out with it. Thanks again,
Mike

Looks great guys!  It's nice to see you can still have a good looking website without scripts. Don't get me wrong, I do miss my ajax/php site, but these give me ideas of what to do with mine.  I'm sure I will rebuild mine over the next few weeks.

Why did you take the ajax/php off?

I have an Acurite station and my console kept having USB connection errors with Weather Display.  At first I thought it was my PC so I got a new one, but it still happened.  So instead of having to restart WD every 2 days, I just opted out of it.  I now use Kevin Key's Aculink Bridge Reader.  I really like it....very solid, and sends data to all your favorite sites. 

***wanted to add...the connection issue is an Aculink problem and not a Weather Display problem.

Mike,
  How do you access the old version of the website builder? I never updated to sitebuilder 3 myself, but thought it did it by itself automatically and never thought there was the old sitebuilder still available. Right now when I click on the HTML editor tab I get a message saying I can't use the HTML editor unless I 'Upgrade'.  :???: If you have a way to work around this I'd love to know about it (How you do it, like what is the URL to the old sitebuilder), as I really would like to add a few things to my site! I would LOVE to be able to use the HTML editor again on the free version!
Thanks,

Thanks. I still can do Java scripts and HTML scripts with my webs.com site
