Folks,

Maybe I'm so completely out of circulation here that I didn't know about this, but I came across a site today when an article in it was mentioned in the Lockergnome newsletter. The site is:

Web Page Design for Designers ,

and it says:

"Web Page Design for Designers is
© Copyright 1996-2005 CoffeeCup Software.
All articles and content provided by Joe Gillespie"

Was anybody aware of this? Is this a satellite website of CC software?

Howard

Howard, There is mention of CoffeeCup all over the place on this website, all over.

Mark

Here is another link http://www.wpdfd.com/tools.htm

Mark

Yes, Mark, I noticed that the Ambassador-type promotion pages were all over, complete with BlueDomino web hosting PR! I first thought it was a site by one of the enthusiastic Ambassadors, but the copyright notice seems to indicate that, at least as of last year, it was copyrighted by CoffeeCup.

Maybe the site went rogue this year and took off on its own with Mr. Gillespie?

(Maybe the site went "sentient" and is about to take over Cyberspace? I love science fiction! The plot thickens! )

Howard

Interesting..

Very Interesting....

Mark

Ah, good thinking, Dave! I shoulda thought of doing a "whois" on the site! Maybe it's time to post a question in the other area? --- Howard

Go on then Howard, I dare you!

Mark

Have I missed a trick here completely too.. is this not the same site linked to in on the support page towards the bottom "Also see: Web Design Resource Center" ??

Simon

Simon,

You're absolutely right! I don't think I ever clicked that link! DUH! --- Howard
