Well, I am making a website for myself. I cant decide who to use for it. Anyone have any good places to rent from? I need a domain name, web space, atleast 10 pages, email, and flash abilities. Please help.

A website for yourself?  Have you considered what will go into the site first?  Making a good website isn't an easy thing, unless you have some hefty experience.  I understand how easy it is to install forums on a site, or even sign up for your own forum account on a site, but to have a real website you need to have more than forums, because nobody will go to it if they can already communicate with people in larger sites (here, plus thousands others).  If you already have your heart set to making a site that will provide some type of content that will interest people, or be useful to people, then I'd suggest finding a moderately priced hosting arrangement.  You simply won't find any good free hosting options.

That being said, I'm sure you already have 10,000 shopped pictures that display your name in odd and displeasing ways that you just can't wait to put up for the world to see.  And then after that I'll bet you have about 50 good IRC quotes that you want to stick on there as well for a "funnies" section.

(Word of advice:  If what I just said is true, ask to close this thread.  You don't want a site.)

Anyways, good luck tito.

You can run one on your computer, yes. Servers are computers.
