- The home page
will have a
format similar to this page. It (and other
pages on the site) can have a logo or art work in the header area.
There will be a short write-up about the content of the site
as supplied by the organization for whom the site is put up.
There will also be links to the other pages on the site.
You could also display posters for shows and/or a news letter
on
this page. If you have UTube videos they could be linked or
embeded here. (Note: The title link links back to the Here's
Our
Site home page. I linked it so that it would look the same as
the
other section titles.)
- There can be a bio page
with
write-ups of the principals of the organization. There can be
photos of these people if you wish. I have set up a sample
page HERE.
- I have a
flash photo gallery available if
you
wish to have a photo gallery. There is a sample of the flash
gallery HERE.
The alternative would
be to put up
a page with a few photos. A snapshot page with pictures about
the
size of color prints would probably load faster than the flash gallery,
so might be better if you expect many users with a slower internet
connection. I can also put up the type of gallery
that I use on my personal sites. If you would like to check
out
this option HERE
is a link to my Galleries Index Page.
- I have a flash
music player
available. The organization for whom the music player is
installed must have the rights to any music that is put up on the site.
There is a place in the music player for a picture or logo.
This area can be made a clickable link to a site where the music
is available for sale. This is the music player that I am
using
on my personal site and can be checked out HERE.
Note: This link will open in a new window or tab.
When you close the window or tab you will return here.
This can be set up as a separate page or as a button on the
main page.
There are several skins available for the music player to
blend
with your site color scheme.
- I have a simple guest book
available so that
visitors to the site can leave comments. I will probably look
around for something a bit more handsome, but I have a sample of this
simple guest book HERE
for now. **Update** I have found and installed a much better guestbook,
so click the link to see the new version and try it out!!
- For
the calendar for your site we recommend the Google calendar.
You
can get the Google calendar from Google. You will be able to
maintain the calendar from any internet connected computer.
Google will supply you with a script that we will embed in
your
calendar page. When you make changes on your Google
calendar they will show up on the calendar on your web page.

see a sample calendar page click

- For
the present I can put up a contact page with supplied contact
information. I am investiagating incorporateing a mail form
that people fill out and the software emails the information to you.
This may be complicated by having many sites using the data
base. The site contact page is HERE.
- This
sample site is
made up with information that I used to set up a small demo site for a
band with which I work occasionally. They did not supply the
information so only a few of the features that will be available on
these sites are active here, but you can get an idea of what I propose
from this sample site. There is a library of skins viewable
by
clicking the skins link in the nav bar. The site does have a
music player and a gallery, so it showcases those features.
You
can view this sample site by clicking HERE.
