The fact that you guys can put these together in a short time is a good indication of how easy it is.

It took me a few tries to get the size right on mine also..I put it on and saved it and it was really blurry..maybe we could set up a thread that would show people how we did it and the steps taken to make it easier to do..for people that don't really know anything about it.
Thanks Adam

[QUOTE=Adam Wartell] [QUOTE=lukesvette] Well here's my contribution so far. I used a template which was actually a copy of someone else's site and it was a lot of work to clean it up. Can't figure out how to get rid of the affiliations and make my video links look like live urls....but cool so far - I'm really a rookie at this...

Youse guys are embarrassing the crap outta me...
I just lost on how to do what I want to do, and just haven't taken the time to actually read any of the Help stuff. Being on dial-up at home don't help, either...
Lukekin gud there, Paul!!!

Hey Adam I know it's late but I think there is something wacky here..I checked out the lukesters test site and the edit functions were present at the top of the screen..I did click on edit page and it would let me do so IF I chose to do so..I don't know how I am getting these words side ways but my phone is on 0 memory..my site does the same thing but I figured since I am signed in as me it would let me edit the site??  Do we have something setup wrong?  I don't want someone being able to do things to the site like I could have to Pauls..see what you find..
Thanks Boss
Rich

You can set permissions on the sites so that the C3VR members are set as "Collaborators", which means the C3VR members w/e-mail account can "edit", or help out each other. So far, I haven't seen any way to dis-able this function...you have either a "Collaborators only" setting, or "Anyone who can view this site"...Geek

Joel I really didn't think you would answer this! Ok that makes sense..I don't think anyone that is a member here would do anything bad so I guess it's ok..
Thanks

Been working on this (not ready to go public yet).  Overall, yes, it's not too hard to get it going, but as far as getting it just right, well that's another story.  I don't have a Picasa account (guess I'll need one), so I've had to load photos one by one.  I load them to one page on my site to use, but I then need to load them again if I want them on another page.  I like that I can resize how pictures are diplayed on a page, but not that the aspect ration doesn't lock.  Also, I have at least one place where I want to align images differently than the template I'm using shows, and that is not easy.
 
Adam, is there an on-line (or even book version) tutorial that helps with some of these "picky" issues of mine?  I do like this and am excited about putting a few more "tweaks" before I'll make mine public (maybe T-day weekend).  Looking forward to seeing more people do the same thing, with an easy link from the "User Pages" menu!
 
Just checked the library and found "Google Sites and Chrome for Dummies."  Now on hold for me. 
 
Thanks for pointing us in the direction of this cool tool Adam
