Dialogue with the Webmaster This will
be a place for website policy discussion, answering frequently asked questions,
and a place for the Webmaster to inform CVAA members about anything he thinks
might be of value.
For technical questions
about our web site, please email
Webmaster
I'm curious if anyone is reading this page.
Please email me at
gbjpefley@yahoo.com if you read this. Thanks!
Requests for art work and other content for website: Please send me any digital
pictures of your paintings, CVAA events, etc., so I can include them in the
Photo Gallery.
Send to:
Webmaster.
SNAIL MAIL You can send me photographs by snail mail, but please send
me duplicates so I don't have to worry about returning them. I don't like
feeling guilty! It takes me longer to scan non-digital photographs.
Include description of the art work: Name, medium, title, size, award, etc. Since we live in two places,
I'll highlight in bold on the Member's List, the place to send information by
snail mail.
If you have a lot of paintings you'd like published on
the Internet, I'd encourage you to set up your own website. We can link to
your website in Member Websites.
If you have any other information you'd like to put on
the website, please send it to me. We'd like to have this website as
current, and informative as possible. If you know a Member's email address
not included on the Member's List, please send it to me.
Photo Policy: To be fair to all, we're currently
limiting pictures to three per artist in each category (i.e.
Award Winning Art &
Works of CVAA Artists).
If we get too many, this may be reduced to two.
Questions: If you have any
comments, suggestions, criticisms (please be gentle!), let me know, and I'll put
those of general interest on this page. (Constructive
criticism is negative comments that are well organized.) <GRIN>
Let me know what else you would like to have on the website.
Webmaster Personal:
I'd encourage you to looking into the world of digital photography, digital
imaging, and web publishing, as well as art classes. There are many
worthwhile classes at community colleges, such as WNCC (Western Nevada Community
College
http://www.wncc.edu), and LTCC (Lake Tahoe
Community College
http://www.ltcc.cc.ca.us/). Some courses are given in the art
department, and some in the computer department.
Wacom Tablet: I
mentioned the Wacom Table as an interesting tool for working with digital photos
in programs like Photoshop. Take a look at:
www.wacom.com
Here is some info from their
website:
Over 2,000,000 tablet owners and counting.
Wacom pen tablets are the fastest, most comfortable way to work with your
computer.
Intuos3 is the professional pen tablet
that turns on the full power of Photoshop's 20 pressure-sensitive tools. With
its comfortable Grip Pen and feature-packed mouse, you have the control and
power you need to really get the most out of all your graphics applications.
Intuos2 comes in five sizes, from the 4x5 ($199.95) to the 12x18 ($749.99)
Website Problems: Please let me know if you find
any errors or problems with the website. Let me know what browser you use.
I use Firefox ver 1.5. I also check out the website with Internet
Explorer, Netscape ver. 4.7 and ver. 7.0, for compatibility.
