As they say on TV… What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas,,,, which would be a good thing if your Avid…

Why didn’t you TELL ME you had a blog? I would have been reading it all this time.

We need more blogs like this out there.

Like the QC people getting it wrong. Yeah…been there. “Dude…look again. You are wrong in terms of what is legal.”

Thanks, appreciate the kind words! I guess it went live this past week with the new Cow Blogs, very cool with Tim, Ron, Eric and the gang doing a heckuva job to get them set up and launched.

Peter, remind to say something nice about you.. Your pointer to https://www.joomla.org/ might just be an answer that I have been looking for. I have three web sites, two that have yet to be built and one that needs a lot of help… How much of joomla have you explored and tested? I need an email app that can help me email business emails with graphics and video enbedded and I ain’t an html guy. Will joomla help with this or is it still really html code warrior only type app.

thanks for the pointers… Your post here on FCP are always illuminating…. but not as much fun as the exploits of our friend Wally and his famous ‘Wally Drop Test” I did hear from a friend that his certified Apple FCP trainer dumped a cup of coffee on his new 17″ Macbook Pro, probably to test for software leaks, (would this qualify as a Wally test) but this guy doesn’t admit to ever reading or sharing on the Cow.. I appreciate that you do..

thanks

Joomla is a content management system that uses MySQL as the database and PHP to display.
You can email registered users but its not probably the best tool, but check out all the extensions that add functionality as there amy be something there that would help.

My new site was developed with a programmer & designer as although I could have done 75% myself, its the last 25% that make it look professional.
We still have a bit of work to do with the padding round the pictures & alignment

For scheduled email to a lot of users, this is really good:-

Hope that helps
