<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div><br></div><div>Darrin: I still have to do manual posts across multiple school sites because I've been too lazy to figure out how to program that feature - but I think it can be done.</div><div><br></div><div>Alex/Anyone: I am willing to help you do the Design work for a Google Site. It can be done anytime if your GAFE Cloud is live (and it will show up when you do the DNS change), and it would probably take us a day away from teachers and students to hammer out the site in your GoogleSpace. My fee would be enough caffeine to keep me going to the end of the day ;-). I don't know how to do everything, but my web experience goes back to the Mosaic browser (can you say Gopher server?). My kryptonite is Photoshop - but I can hack away with Irfanview for what I usually need in the graphics department. I would say it took me a week to really get the Design set and a week to get the Development in place. Now that I have a year's worth of content in the Sites, I will take a few days this summer and realign folders, pages, etc. to what will work more betterer (and more gooder, too :-).</div><div><br></div><div>All: I did some shopping for Google Sites help before I took on the task, and most people were giving me bids in the $3K - $5K range for the Design and Development work. I did contract with one developer for a site mock-up - and when I saw their product I realized that I knew more than they did - and I am not a pro web developer. My conclusion was that most professional shops don't do Google Sites as part of the usual offerings. There are Sites templates out there for download and purchase - but I could never find a really decent one for what we wanted.</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers, Mike</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><p><span style="color:#1f497d"><font face="verdana, sans-serif">Mike O’Reilly<br></font></span><span style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(31,73,125)">Technology Director, Cascade

I abandoned most of the content and all of the schema from Edline because it didn't map to the Google Sites workflow. With that said, I did create a separate GAFE account (csdweb) that owns everything, then I set up individual sites for each school so I can get granular with rights all the way down to the individual page. Let me know if you want a walkthrough.
