What are good free websites out there for posting missions? Webs just started asking for money and for whatever reason I can't copy/paste into an LJ cut.

I also use freewebs, and while it's constantly asking you to "upgrade", as far as I can tell you don't need to actually pay them.
So yes, they likely are asking you for money, but there is zero reason to pay them. -

I tried to add a new page, and it said "You are unable to post more than eight pages as a free user."

Ah. In that case, you can try hosting the actual missions/interludes/top secret government documents/etc. on a different site. For example, July hosts her stuff on Google docs and only links to it on her Freewebs site. I do the same thing for mine.

Check out Tripod or Bravenet. I believe they both offer site builders if you're not into HTML, but if you are you probably want Bravenet--I don't know if Tripod will let you just do it anymore. I could be wrong, though; I haven't made a new account there since they introduced Webon (the site builder).

You need an invite code; I've got several, though, if you're looking. Actually if anyone's looking, especially in wake of the DDOS attacks.

I'll take one of those, if you'd be so kind- I've been trying to figure out how I was going to post missions, and this might be a viable alternative to what I was going to try (wordpress). soluslunes@gmail.com

Is en route.
(Also, what July said regarding e-mails-- this 'Board is very publicly viewable, and though Gmail is very good at spam-blocking, carefulness is good.) -

With the 'show email address' it clicked.
Or with spaces.
Spam is not a lovely thing. -

The rich text window never worked for me either. Have you tried pasting in the text and then switch to html to manually add in the cut? at the start and at the end (both without spaces, space between cut text stays).

I'd say Wordpress can be used. Unfortunately, I don't know much of it as I actually use Splinder, an Italian blog website. (If you look in carefully, there are still some Italian word here and there despite the fact I translated the whole template in English)
Id's say that Splinder works well, but unless you speak Italian it won't be a good choice for you.
