We've updated our site to make it more inviting for the user. We have placed a whole new look and feel to include a new menubar horizontal across the top of our site. Logons for email and Helm are now located under Support>> Main. We softened up the colors for more eye appeal and have updated some of the features on the site. Professional sites now come with Pearl attached and we now offer SQL Server to those needing a more robust database. Some additional changes to come will be an upgrade of the Helm control panel and an upgrade of SmarterMail. These new applications come with some more robust features that will enhance your website experience. We will keep you posted of the changes as they occur.

Seems there is a mismatch between the Frontpage extensions on workstations and those on our server. Microsoft is aware of the issue, but with the announcement of discontinuing Frontpage in the near future, the problem is probably never going to be resolved.

The immediate work around for this problem is for users to upload only content and not their extensions when working in Frontpage. An alternative also to download a copy of Microsoft Sharepoint Designer 2007 , Visual Studio Express, Expression Web or Visual Web Developer. All these applications are geared to the hobbiest and small business. Some are betas and others are for purchase or free. Links to these products are listed below.

In our testing of our new web pages, we found that Firefox 2.0 doesn't display the shopping cart properly. We have reported the bug to Mozilla and am waiting a reply. However, IE6/7 and Netscape both display the page correctly. Until the problem is resolved, we recommend Firefox users to download one of these browsers to access this page.

Microsofts Frontpage will soon be a thing of the past. Microsoft will be discontinuing frontpage this year with the release of SharePoint Designer 2007. Sharepoint Designer is build on .NET technology and after downloading a Beta version (good thru June 2007) I found it quite impressive. It has the look and feel of Visual Studio and those familiar with the Dreamweaver desktop. I found it very easy to create webpages that were interactive. It can attach to access and SQL Server databases and is very robust. It was only a matter of time before the big M would get .NET into the hands of the home hobbiest and small business owners.
