Gerrit and Pete uploaded awesome pics! Be sure to take a look! Also regarding the photo gallery, the database linkage between the main site and the photo gallery is broken (have yet to figure it out), but there seems to be advantages to having two seperated from each other. So anyhoo, you have to register with the photo gallery to upload to it. Just viewing the photo gallery doesn't require any logging in, etc. If you would like to have a ussacadia.org email address, decide what you would like it to be (example:
This email address is being protected from spam bots, you need Javascript enabled to view it
), what you want for a password, and send in your request using the "Contact Us" page. There is both web and POP email access, i.e., you can use something like Outlook, etc., or go via the web (www.ussacadia.org/webmail). By the way, the drawback of an Acadia address compared to Yahoo or similar is space. 2 megabytes is all the bigger a mailbox can be at the moment (there is only 15 Gig to play with for the whole site). But as long as you keep it emptied out (Outlook will do it by default) and no one sending you huge attachments, it should be plenty. |

This website is being created to help put together a reunion and to provide one place for Acadia members to get together. From my limited research, there are at least 6 websites that Acadia sailors have registered on and none of those sites make a mention of the other sites. The idea for this site came about when an email about putting together a reunion from Lenny (Arrington Leonard, a former BT) showed up in my mail box via Maria Guzman. I decided to do my part by putting together the web site to help coordinate it. On the subject of building a website, |

In about a month, we have 17 registered members, 120 photos, and around 700 site visits. Gerrit Gilespie, Tim Lohrig, and Pete Parilla are the main photo contributors-- a big thanks to them. Having several hundred (if not thousand) registered members would be fantastic, especially for purposes of trying to put a reunion together. At least 100 attendee's is good starting point. If 30% of the registered members come, that means we need atleast 300 members on the site, which is definitely doable. So while you're out looking at other Acadia sites, send people you know over to this site. Coming up soon are online cruisebooks, starting with the 88-89, the only one that the site admin has. He should have 90-91, and 1992. The 88-89 book will be in the photo gallery within a week. If you would like to add a cruise book as well, it's fairly easy with decent lighting, a tripod, and a digital camera that has "macro" mode. The challenge is to set up the lighting so that there is no glare and be able to shoot without flash. Once you get things in place, it's a matter of flipping the pages. |
