Some time ago, Rod Bruckdorfer asked if I might consider taking on the Flicka Home Page while he was away cruising. This sounded like a good idea and I accepted. Recently, I developed a small web page for Flicka Friends and felt it was time to take over the Flicka Home Page.
After a couple of real long weekends, most of the pages were converted from the software that Rod used to the program used to develop Flicka Friends. While the look is different, the information is the same. The biggest change is the use of the YAHOO Flicka 20 Group as a discussion board. The web addresses are listed below.
Last summer, , I changed internet service providers and while reading through all of the information about their services, I decided to look at their web page option. Since I use Microsoft Publisher to create Flicka Friends, there were a number of “canned” web pages available to me. On a day off, I decided to try the wizards and create a web page. As it turned out, this was a relatively easy process. Within four or five hours, the Flicka Friends Home Page was created. While not the most sophisticated software available for web page creation, it did a good job. After uploading to the server, the Flicka Friends Home Page was ready for viewing.
