How to Get Cool Add-Ons for HTML Pages

Introduction

You can use small graphics to add-ons make your HTML web pages a little more flashy. Here's how.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Steps

1

Step One

Figure out what you want. It helps to draw mock-ups of your HTML web pages. Then view them in their current state. What's missing? Mark spots where a good animation or an interactive add-on might be appropriate.
2

Step Two

Go to animation clearing houses for graphics and animated bits. Sites like gifanimations.com have tons of small animations for use on your web page and they fit conveniently into an HTML code.

Step Three

Check out options for interactive add-ons. Read up on the functions of things like web counters and guidebooks to see if your system can support them. Some can be simply plugged into HTML code, others need a server to operate.
4

Step Four

Pick up many of your needed add-ons through freeware sites. Webmonkey is a great spot for picking up add-on gear for HTML pages, and they have web design advice and support, too.

Step Five

Add your extra features to your page. Reading the documentation on the site will help you know if you need to put anything special in HTML to add your items. Most likely, you will just locate the spot where you want your add-on and paste the code in.
