Hello, I participated in the development of this fishing log and image repository for fishermen: http://fishing.idealog.net If you have interesting images of your past catches, fishing trips, repairs, inventory, bait, tackle, fishing buddies or any other images that you could donate and that you would not mind being used for our web site and the log graphics (splash screen or sample HTML pages generated by the log), please let me know. Any feedback on the product would be greately appreciated too. We always give credits to contributors. A link to your site, your name in the credit section is not a problem. Thanks.

From: Bob La Londe )
Just curious, are you the same Jen that was pushing CSC Phoenix Consulting or something like that a while back? Hi Bob, I remember you asked the same question in September. No, I am not familiar with the project or company. If you need any info about who I am or what I do for the software mentioned above – do not hesitate to contact me. robot, pointless, Gimp, database options etc You are absolutely right Joe, it was a waste of bandwidth and time for most of the readers of this group. I promise that I will be more accurate when choosing titles for my posts. If you need feedback on your thoughts about database options and crossplatform solution - send us a message through http://fishing.idealog.net/feedback.html (general comment from our developers so far: "not a chance, mate", they might be wrong however, I don't know). Take care. Here ya go, Jen... http://www.internetclipart.com/fFishing/fishing.htm See if there's something there that'll interest you. I have seen the site and tried to use some of the work for splash screens, but it did not work very well since it is difficult to combine photos and clipart on one image. Otherwise, the quality of the clipart is quite good and it is a useful link as it also covers other areas. Thanks. |

Jen,
If you use MS Image Composer you can combine clip art and picks easily or your web page. It is not the easiest program to learn but once you do it opens up a lot of possibilities. It comes as an add in with FrontPage. "Jen" wrote in message om... From: Bob La Londe ) Just curious, are you the same Jen that was pushing CSC Phoenix Consulting or something like that a while back?

@posting.google.com: You want to prove I am a spammer - send me something worthwhile and see if it appears on our site or on a splash screen or in the sample database. Oh, and check if we mention your name in the acknowledgement section. Kind regards, Jen I don't know if you're a spammer or not (or particularly care), but the FAQ at your site disturbs me. From the FAQ: ******** Contacting Fishing Log PRO Team Q: I would like to send an e-mail to the authors. Why can't I see any e- mail addresses anywhere in your contact details. A: We decided not to publish our addresses any longer because of hundreds unsolicited e-mails we used to receive every day. Please use the feedback page link to contact us directly. Q: Could I call you or ask you to contact me by phone regarding Fishing Log PRO? A: We do not have a hotline support center. It helps us to cut costs and keep our registration fees very low. If you have any questions - you can always ask us by submitting your query via the feedback page. Make sure you have read this FAQ and be specific when asking questions. ******* Personally, I won't do ANY e-business with anyone I couldn't contact by phone if I needed to, EVER. I don't even know what country you guys are in. While most likely you're legit, sending a credit card number to the nameless and faceless is a really stupid thing to do. Its a high risk way to make a purchase. Even if I were in the market for a fishing log, you wouldn't get my business. Scott |

Even if I were in the market for a fishing log, you wouldn't get my business. I'm not attacking here, but I do have a different point of view.... While I agree that it is slightly more difficult to do business by email, I have an online business and while 99.9% of our customers are fine people we're happy to have for customers, I don't want to hand that other ..1% my home phone number (actually, my second phoneline). My point being, not every business on the internet is run in a dedicated office environment. We run our business from our homes, and our website is our office. We still give our customers our best service possible, everyday. Actually, several times a day! As for credit cards, you're only slightly more at risk over the internet then by handing it to the guy or gal at the restaurant who disappears with it to charge your bill, or the folks at the hotel counter who take an impression of your card for their records, or the folks who take your order over the phone for catalogs, etc, etc, etc. God only knows how many people have access to your card that you don't know at all, and have never met... P.S. The site representitive is from Dublin, Ireland. This, and his address and phone number, can be found through publicly accessible information online. So, our customers could find our phone number if they needed to. -- Andrew Kidd http://www.amiasoft.com/ - Software for the rest of us! http://www.rofb.net/ - ROFB Newsgroup Home |

We still give our customers our best service possible, everyday. Actually, several times a day! I'm sure you do provide excellent customer service, but putting in a dedicated phone line with an answering machine is a relatively small expense that might attract customers. At least, your website provides an address. The site in question here doesn't extend that courtesy. I think we can both agree that when you give your credit card to someone, you should at least know what business you're giving it to. As for credit cards, you're only slightly more at risk over the internet then by handing it to the guy or gal at the restaurant who disappears with it to charge your bill, or the folks at the hotel counter who take an impression of your card for their records, or the folks who take your order over the phone for catalogs, etc, etc, etc. God only knows how many people have access to your card that you don't know at all, and have never met... When you deal with reputable online companies with good security policies, you're probably safer than when you hand you're credit card to a waiter. When you deal with small guys who don't know from security, you're asking for trouble. I'm basing this on letters from my web- hosting company that said they found many sites on their own servers that were collecting card numbers on encrypted pages, and then mailing them or storing them on unencrypted pages. P.S. The site representitive is from Dublin, Ireland. This, and his address and phone number, can be found through publicly accessible information online. So, our customers could find our phone number if they needed to. With you're site, you're a corporation. People can find your Tax ID number if they needed it, they can complain to your attorney generals office or better business beaureau if they saw fit. You're not anonymous. There remains something inherently wrong with doing business with an anonymous party. Scott |
