    Re: Anyone ever created a website for a fav player or player they follow?

    I only really actively collect game used items of two players (Joe Mauer and Jack Hannahan), so creating a site for each collection didn't take a great moment of inspiration. I just use a freewebs site. At this point, I'm not hardcore enough to want to pay for a domain name, so for the time being, I have www.jackhannahan.webs.com

    As far as Major Leaguers go, Jack is a nobody .220 hitter, but he's somebody I went to school with and followed for 12 years before he got a cup of coffee in the Majors. I have been adding explanations on most of the items I have posted, which in some ways is also biographical because I explain where he was in his career when he used the piece. It's a fun side hobby to add to the collecting and an easy way to share your collecton with anyone who might want to take a look. It's certainly not a new idea. I know a lot of others here do the same thing too and I have really enjoyed all the sites you guys have created and shared...even if I don't have much interest in the guys you collect.

    I started this website a couple of years ago and have not had any time to update or finish it. It's a lot of work.

    I have my favorite players and teams on it.

    I'd made up a page at Geocities, years ago. Basically, just a bunch of links pasted on a home page. Eventually figured out how to make multiple pages. Still pretty bush league, but it served it's purpose.

    Last year I built a duplicate using freewebs. Pretty easy and even just using on of their templates, it's not bad.

    I think I pay something like $7/year for the ad-free page thru freewebs and about the same for the domain name thru Go Daddy.

    Glad I moved. Geocities is toast in 2 more days.
