WEB SITE DEVELOPMENTS

I am reviewing our navigation bars and adding our e-mail address to every
page. We now have will over 450 pages on our site. This is quite a job. I
would like to think about our internal linking policy and what our internal
promotion priorities are. It may seem late in the game in one since but in
another since we have been able to build our site concept gradually with a
little work often - with constant change to build and maintain interest and
we have done it without any more funding than our domain name registration
and our ISP charges. About $50 per month.

We are producing a cable TV show locally and promoting our website on it by
teaching basic lessons in HTML on-line using our website as the example. We
post on-line extended beginning lessons in on the topic covered in our cable
TV series.

This is a work in progress that I hope to re-write and improve over time to
help beginners to learn HTML basics. Our goal is to give them an overview of
web site design and promotion issues with a taste of experimentation with
HTML code. Find these lessons at



THANK YOU ART-ACT SUBMITTING ARTISTS

Thanks again for building a response to hatred. More and more people will
recognize that this is a valid forum. We are building this so you and your
work can receive attention from an international audience. Artists, if you
have or build a website let us know so we can trade a link with you.

Because we are a group of community artists struggling for a voice we value
your expressions. We promise to post your expressions as long as you want
us to. We will continue to post your statements and links to your other art
on the
Internet as you inform us. We are here to serve artists.

Your many pens - is stronger than the swords! Thank You!


ART-ACT ARTISTS - Sell Your Art
Go to
http://www.art-teez.org/license.htm to printout, fill out and send to
us a signed license agreement to market your art on T-shirts. You
receive $2.00 per t-shirt sold.

Those artists licensing their work for printing on t-shirts will become
eligible for further opportunities as they arise. One goal of ours is a
booklet of images for schools to invite discussions of diversity issues
between students. What else could come our way? Any suggestions?
