Re: Suffolk Chilli Fest
 

Well here is a little up date sense a few guys here sent us a donation. As of right now we made right at $6,500 after all the bills got paid. We still have $1,500 in corporate donations that we have not received but we are holding out hope those two companies still send us a check. This evene almost got scratched because last year we made $275 but we decided to give it one more try and it really paid off

Well not sure the whole story on that because a member my have jumped the gun some and spoke before a decision was ever made by the company. We have 4 to 5 local companies that suport us so if we get the money great if not we will probably get a donation when we have our gold outing.

I did convince the club that we need our own web site that people can see what we are doing and have done in the past. We could list our meetings and also have a pay pal account set up for people who would just like to donate money to the club. The bad news is they have put me in charge of this and I don't knw squat about setting up a web page.

[URL="http://www.thewarpath.net/678546-post1064.html"]What'd I tell you man[/URL]? I'll help you out; I can't say I'll have it done immediately due to having a full-time, non-related job, but it'd probably be fully functional before someone else from the group would, unless they're web-inclined. Get some ideas from the group as far as what you want and let me know.

Re: Suffolk Chilli Fest
 

I knew you offered in this thread but I didn't want to just come out and ask. I think our main office ofr our organiztion has stuff on their site that we can use when we set up a site and I'm going to give them a call Monday. All we are looking for is a site that tells who we are and what we have done over the years. We would like it so we can go in and post pics, list events and that about all we need. Oh, and we also want to do as you said and put a link to our pay pal account we will set up. I'll let you know what I find out after talking to our main office and thanks for helping us out.

Re: Suffolk Chilli Fest
 

I'm the same way man, if I don't accept at the offer I'm not going to come back and ask either. A fairly static site is what it seems. We can integrate a calendar and photo gallery no problem, or do kind of an all-in-one approach with a Content Management System if you plan on frequent updates. I'll try to kick around some ideas as far as how things should be displayed, etc. The Paypal integration will be a breeze.

Not sure if this is working or not but I had to take some pictures of a customers house and I figured out how to email them and thought I'd try to see if I could post one. This is a pick from the chilli fest.

Re: Suffolk Chilli Fest
 

I see it showed up as a red x can you open it up?

Re: Suffolk Chilli Fest
 

nope. you have to actually load the picture to the internet then post the link here, or atleast thats why i fgured out how to do. the easist way, and i'm saying that cause i figured it out, is to create an account with photobucket.com and load them there

I'll have to give that a try. I signed up for an account there today but when I hooked up my camera to the computer some program came up that allowed me to save them and then forward them as an attachment to an email. Thats a good start for me. LOL

Re: Suffolk Chilli Fest
 

yeah once you have them saved on your computer it's pretty easy to use photo bucket, and this is coming from a guy who types with two fingers :D

Re: Suffolk Chilli Fest
 

I type with one.LOL
