throwing my hat into the ring

<p>After much research I finally settled on the Turtle skin for jAlbum... here's what I have so far, still need to add a contact page. I'm a little reluctant to list my e-address, would like suggestions on how to add a "ghost" address. Any other comments welcome, too, of course!</p>

<p>Thanks, all,</p>

<p>Instead of listing your email address, create a "Contact me" form that the customer fills in and submits via the web site. That way your email address isn't available for harvesting.<br>

Another technique is to use a bit-mapped graphic picture of your contact info, so it can be read only by humans, not address harvesting bots.<br>

Be sure to include info on where you are located. It's hard for a customer to even think about hiring you if they don't know where you are based.<br>

<p>Start with this thread about different methods and their pros and cons. I threw in my $.02's worth about using contact forms.</p>

<p>Then google for ready to use code like these:<br /> http://www.killersites.com/webDesignersHandbook/emailObscucator.htm<br /> http://innerpeace.org/escrambler.shtml</p>

<p>My favorite is this one. I don't have to deal with any coding myself (other than including it in my html file). It displays my actual e-mail address without any modification. Viewers can either copy it, or click on it to e-mail me as they normally do. Yet it is hidden from the spammers.<br /> http://www.davidtulga.com/antispamemail.htm</p>

<p>Thanks to both of you for some excellent suggestions. I'll get busy and try them out.</p>

<p>BTW, it looks like I should've listed my URL with an http:// in front of it to make it clickable, right?</p>
