  1. I'm experienced in both hand-coding and Wordpress. While hand-coding is the most versatile way to make a website, it can also be very complex and complicated. For example, if you want a image gallery or simple image slider etc... you get to search the web for a decent Javascript code to do just that. Then implementing that code can be a pain as well if you're not experienced in Javascript. With Wordpress however, 9 times out of 10 there is a easy to use plugin already created. There are literally thousands of themes for the site and you can customize any of them from right within the admin panel. Not only is Wordpress great for blogs, it is really good for static pages too. Just check out the small biz theme sometime (http://www.expand2we...smallbiz-theme/). I found that to be a real eye opener to just how much Wordpress could be used to make full websites. In the end, it comes down to preference. If you are really skilled at hand-coding, then that may be best for you but if your not and you think you should take the time to check out Wordpress, I'd recommend you spend a great deal of time looking at it. I started using it about 2 months ago after trying to hand-code everything I ever created and I'm hooked. Having the knowledge of how to hand-code mixed with the Wordpress engine has done wonders for me. I hope this helps.
  2. Actually... I just seen that my default email account is enlight@threefatasses.info and that went into Thunderbird fine. Do we not get extra mail accounts even though cpannel let me create one?
  3. Only 10 views and no replies? I was under the impression that Heliohost was very good about their forums and support. Don't get me wrong, I am happy with the service and all and I'm not complaining. I just thought that there would be at least one reply by now...
  4. Hey guys. Rather new here and looking to get my blog rolling. I really like this host and everything you guys are doing. I'm trying to setup my email with Thunderbird. I keep getting this lovely little error: "Sending of password did not succeed. Mail server mail.threefatasses.info responded: Login failed." I have searched the forums for similar issues but nothing I have found has helped. Here is what I have done. In Cpanel, I created a new email account: enlightenedshadow@threefatasses.info with my password. All went well. Then I went to Thunderbird and started to create my account there. I entered my email/password and it found all the servers just fine. But I get that error listed above and can go no further. If anyone knows why this is happening or knows of a Rookie mistake I am making, please let me know! Thanks in advanced.
