| Thanks Jeff,
|
| Well then let me ask the question. Should I just forego this endevor and
| seek out someone to pay to create this site? I will be honest. I need to
| have it created by January 10, 2007. I have a feeling that one month with
| frontpage or expression will not cut it for me. Thoughts? Suggestions for
| web programers - if you think I cant do it?
