is the gray lines supposed to be there? The second line isn't supposed to be there... it's a background problem. I only have one page to list this morning, but it actually took 26 different pages to make the one page work...  The graphics archive page..

I have to get going now, Bill, but I will come and check out all the graphics later today.
I did check oput a few of the bar graphics though. (mainly Christmas ones) I clicked on the "sleigh ride" bar graphic I got nothing but a red X in a box--all of the other Christmas bars I tried worked though.
I will beback to check more later.--of to appointments now.....

most excellent, Bill--and it is easy to read for my "older" eyes. I love them both. Thanks a bunch for all your hard work.

There are a couple hundred plant profile and 'how to" pages that I wrote after I put the directories together so I am back tracking and cataloging them into the directories. My site mapping software has been going non-stop for 27 hours now and has indexed 33,867 TGH pages so far.... then I will have to do a lot of editing (weeks?), but the finished map will be a nice, HUGE reference source for everyone. As I edit the sitemap I will add a lot more pages to the categorized directories (like 'Flowering Trees and Shrubs', 'shade plants', 'alkaline soil plants' etc.)
(up to 34,190 pages now, and searching slowly... after editing, there will only be half that many for the finished map.)

so I guess me printing it all out & putting the pages in sheet protectors, & then in a binder is out of the question, HUH???
Boy that is sure an ambitious undertakiong, Bill.-----
That is such a kind thing to do---to make all the information you provide for people easier to access. such a wonderful thing for you to do. :wink:
I know I will appreciate it.

yea--do that------in your spare time (Bill, do you even have spare time??? I sometimes wonder when you sleep. no, seriously, what I will do is as I use something I will print it out & add it to my "gardening" binder--I use the big 4 inch binders they sell for school kids---you can print up a page identifying what the binder is for and slip it in the front or back binder sleeve (& even the end if you have the time & energy.) it works out great. a disk does sound cool though......you could add it to the items you have for sale--you do still sell cups & such, right?? I have a garden helper cup & mangnet

After spidering pages for 33 hours the final page count for my sitemap is 36,753 pages. I have a lot of editing to do, but here is the first draft of The Garden Helper Sitemap  You'll have to be pretty bored to look through all the links, but there is a LOT of good info in there.

Oh, my there is a lot of info there. Might just need a multi-disc set. I just love your search/google feature that searches the site. It is awesome to help guide me to info I want to know.

If you are remotely interested in seeing a 'before and after' of a page make-over, I am working on http://www.thegardenhelper.com/viningplants.html right now and the online version is still circa 1997. I won't be going to bed until it is finished and online. Most of the re-makes so far have had little in the way of changes other than the face-lift.... This page will have a LOT of new info, so there will be a big difference to see before and after...

I did yesterday so had to go and try today. I 'fits' the rest of the forum now and it doesn't open in a new window. (I know that because I 'x-ed' out of it and closed the forum. Had to open a new window and come back in. )
