wwp@yahoogroups.com: Preview Site v4 Landis 2004-Apr-10 01:17:00
Greetings everyone!

The latest version of the preview site is up.  I'm hoping this is 
*very* close to the final iteration before we go public on Monday.

There were some format changes to this version as well as some edits 
and additions.  Please look at your page and get to me ASAP if you 
want to change any text or links on your page.

Format and other design changes include:

* The 'Continental Index' has been replaced by a 'Regional Index'. 
Please verify that you are located in the proper region as we've 
broken them down.

* The 'Geographic Location' has been added to both index pages.

* On the individual pages the 'Geographic Location' has been lightly 
edited and moved to the top of the page.

* A copyright notice as well as a link to your company/website if you 
provided one has been put directly below every panorama so that 
there's no question who own's the image (YOU DO).

* New feature: an "Email someone a link to this page" link which will 
open up the viewers email program and fill in a link to your page. 
This will help people email direct links to pages they want to share. 
Not voting, but does help you share your favorites.  Please don't ask 
for it to get any more exciting than this - it's done with simple 
JavaScript and HTML, we don't have access to PHP or a mail server or 
anything like that.

* The FullScreen pages have changed a little bit: background is now 
black, your Panorama name and location are written below, and your 
copyright info appears.

I realize some things have changed.  Some of you may want to change 
your Panorama name to not be too repetitive of your 'Geographic 
Location'.  Some may want to change or add links, or expand captions. 
THIS is the time to do that.  I don't mind any changes you have now - 
I want to make sure you like what you've got.

If you want a change to your text email me (#removed#), or if 
you haven't submitted yet, please do so ASAP.  Don and I will make 
every effort to accommodate your requests but we're going to have to 
stop soon.

Here's the deal: I am reserving the right to politely refuse any 
changes or additions after Sunday 12 Noon US Pacific Daylight Time 
(Sunday, 11 April 2004, 19:00 UTC).  I will do my best to take care 
of changes after that, but I won't promise anything.

With those points and the warning take a look at the 4th and near 
final iteration of the World Wide Panorama:

Congratulations to everyone involved.  I'm very proud of what we have 
ALL accomplished.
