E-MAIL DS RE:

Partner Program Page--links for more information does not work.  Links is to "AssociatesA" not Partner Program.

Join our Partner Program - Stand out from the crowd!
Click Here for more information.

Thought we discussed this a few weeks ago -- and you even fixed it while we were talking.  I refreshed page, but still does not work.

That page also does not have current Navigation Drop Down Box.

Should I check which pages need it?  (other than ones I do?)

Ask Diane to:

Change Title Image--for Accessories--see pages for wording.

S-W -- make it S-Z

Add title "Our Mission - About Us"

Text for now?  Image title later?

List changes needed.

• FP Explorer shows SiteIndex.htm (6-16-99) and sitemap.htm (7-17-99).  What is one from 6-16-99?  Delete both?
• On Navigation Drop-down box, put site map after Contact Us, above dotten line.  Below dotted line is for professionals.
• Samples of Online Albums--
  
  For now, I will just list the first page of each sample.  Later, if you think we should list all the pages of the sample albums, I'd like to discuss with you.
•  
• I called first page "Sample of Home Page" and numbered pages after that starting with Page 1.  Okay?   (Site map had "Elegant," "Elegant1," "Elegant2," etc.).  (Note:  The rest had Page 2 as the second page)
  
  See "manual" site map for what I did.
  
  OR
  
  Just show first page of each style on Site Map? 
  
• Also Elegant is the only one that has a Page 1--on all others the second page is Page 2.
  
  Suggest sometime in the future, redo title for each page, for online albums, as well as any others that need it.  (Diane, would you like me to do this?  If so, I will not do any pages with shopping cart or forms--any others?  It would be better for you to do on shopping cart and forms pages.  I'll list and give you my suggestion for titles--so you can just copy and paste.
  
  Title sample for an online album page would be:
  
  Shared Memories:  Online Album - Style Sample:  Elegant
  Shared Memories:  Online Album - Style Sample:  Elegant - Page 2

Discuss in person:  Site Map seemed to have titles as the link--but I updated some to be in format I want and that did not show.??

NEW SITE MAP--DONE "MANUALLY" BY JEAN 7-19-99

Same order as on Home Page, except put Free Engagement Page right after Free Drawing.

Who Pays for What?

Should be:

Tips Who Pays for What?

Engagement Brochure

Name is misleading--should be:

Engagement Web Site or

Engagement Web Site Brochure

Misleading--to bride and groom.  What kind of  Free Listing--free engagement listing?
Should be under a separate Professional Section:

Note:  All pages geared toward Pros should be under separate Professional Section.

Are we using this again?  If not, should not be listed.  (It's not on home page.)

Titles should be consistent--same as those on top of each page.  Some had Shared Memories and/or San Diego in them, in differnet formats.

Add the word "page" to the link--show the word samples above them and do not indent for each page.

Add the words Wedding Album as Romantic already has.

>Something to think about .. > >    Jerry was the kind of guy you love to hate. He was always >   in a good mood and always had something positive to say. >   When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would >   reply, "If I were any better, I would be twins!" > >   He was a unique manager because he had several waiters who >   had followed him around from restaurant to restaurant. The >   reason the waiters followed Jerry was because of his >    attitude. He was a natural motivator. If an employee was >    having a bad day, Jerry was there telling the employee how >    to look on the positive side of the situation. > >   Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I >   went up to Jerry and asked him, "I don't get it! You can't >   be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?" > >   Jerry replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself, >   'Jerry, you have two choices today. You can choose to be >   in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.' I >   choose to be in a good mood.  Each time something bad >    happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to >    learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time >   someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept >   their complaining or I can point out the positive side of >   life. I choose the positive side of life." > >   "Yeah, right, it's not that easy," I protested. > >   "Yes, it is," Jerry said. "Life is all about choices. When >   you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. >   You choose how you react to situations. You choose how >    people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good >    mood or bad mood. The bottom line: It's your choice how >   you live life." > >   I reflected on what Jerry said. Soon thereafter, I left >   the restaurant industry to start my own business. We lost >    touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice >    about life instead of reacting to it. > >   Several years later, I heard that Jerry did something you >   are never supposed to do in a restaurant business: he left >   the back door open one morning and was held up at gunpoint >   by three armed robbers. While trying to open the safe, his >   hand, shaking from nervousness, slipped off the >    combination. The robbers panicked and shot him. Luckily, >    Jerry was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local >    trauma center. > >   After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, >   Jerry was released from the hospital with fragments of the >   bullets still in his body. > >   I saw Jerry about six months after the accident. When I >   asked him how he was, he replied, "If I were any better, >   I'd be twins. Wanna see my scars?" > >   I declined to see his wounds, but did ask him what had >    gone through his mind as the robbery took place. "The >    first thing that went through my mind was that I should >   have locked the back door," Jerry replied. "Then, as I lay >   on the floor, I remembered that I had two choices: I could >   choose to live, or I could choose to die. I chose to >   live." > >    "Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked. >    Jerry continued, "The paramedics were great. They kept >    telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled >   me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on >   the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. >   In their eyes, I read, 'He's a dead man.' > >   "I knew I needed to take action." > >    "What did you do?" I asked. > >   "Well, there was a big, burly nurse shouting questions at >   me," said Jerry. "She asked if I was allergic to anything. >   'Yes,' I replied. The doctors and nurses stopped working >   as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breathe and >   yelled, 'Bullets!' Over their laughter, I told them.   'I >   am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not >    dead." > >   Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also >   because of his amazing attitude. I learned from him that >   every day we have the choice to live fully. Attitude, >    after all, is everything. > >   You have 2 choices now: >     1. save or delete this mail from your mail box. >     2. forward it to anyone you care about. > >   * Hope you will choose choice 2. >  :o)
