The New ALAC Website
I hope you like the new website. I have set up a new
menu system
which should insure easy access to the various documents on this
site.
Eventually, most all the editing and updating will be done by the
various committee heads who are responsible for the
content. To that end, the site has been set
up a little differently than most. The menuing system is entirely
separate from the documents. This will permit the addition and
updating of documents without impacting navigation on the site. All
I will have to do is link the content to the menus, and see that
nothing gets
broken! (and fix it if it does).
Here are some of my ideas for the future:
- I plan to introduce many new
features such as online forms
and entries, and online payments. Most of these would be services
for the members and for the public.
- We now have a membership list
on-line, accessible to members only. I think this will prove to
be a very convenient service to members.
- We also have a "dog wanted" bulletin
board. Interested prospective owners fill out an online
form, and their data can be accessed by members who have dogs/pups to
place.
- It would be useful to have a database of stud dog
pedigrees, helpful to breeders looking to introduce some genetic
diversity.
- We now can offer members
links to their private
webpages, so
long as those pages are non-commercial.
- For
those members who don't have websites, but would
like to have a small webpage, I hope to offer those members a
page on the ALAC site for a reasonable fee to help cover the cost of
maintaining this site. You would have your choice of photos,
background, colors, typography and 4 links to accessory pages. A
sample mock-up page can be seen at: http://www.lhasaapso.org/special/katie.html

services or features you would like to see on the new ALAC site
