Re: [AGA SC] Web links

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

Hi Cheryl,

With the paypal forms it's downright impossible to add fields.  In fact,
it's nigh impossible to control the one "extra" field we do get.  
Sometimes it says "Interests", sometimes it says "Other info".  I really
wanted to add more fields so we could get the complete membership
application form transferred to PayPal.  But to get more fields, we'd have
to write our own front end on the PayPal system (another set of forms you
first fill out, and THEN it takes you to the Paypal site).  It's kinda
nasty, so I stopped there.

As for little banners advertising the AGA, I have no problems with this.  
Actually did it for the contest site already (see the "Press" page)... 

How about we just put something on the links page, saying "Got a website?  
Help spread the word about the AGA by linking to our site.  You can use
any of the banners and graphics below."  We already are encouraging people 
who have aquatic plant clubs to send us their URL.  We could certainly 
have a members' link area too.
