I finally have

some free time for projects. I'm going to be working on a pdf version of the cookbook so it's available offline

also.

Mainly the aspect of putting it into a format that can be viewed on PDA/Smartphone type devices.

The

format I have in mind is breaking the sections into seperate files so you don't have to scroll around a whole lot

to find what your looking for.

Anyone have suggestions about how they would like to see it layed out, formatted,

or particualr content?

Also, would the moderators like to review/approve it first? Just want to be sure the

"higher ups" are ok with the material being copied from the site. When all is done, maybe a sticky topic would be a

good means for distribution.

Sounds great Pen. Maybe you can

email your prototype to have a look at. If its PDF it'll be very portable. Thanks for taking on a needed project.

Now... about the Product Table....

Yes. The product table is in

some need of updating. I'm trying to piece some new pages together using the format from

http://pherolibrary.com/pheromone-guide/products/mens/alter-ego.htm as the layout.

Some of the

products that are in the store have very little info so it's hard to get much to put in there.

I have the cookbook and

product table ready as both pdf and txt formats.

Although they can't be attached to a message since the pdf

version is too big.

If anyone has about 800k for hosting available or another way of posting to site we can get

this available to everyone.

Yep, got your email. I'm just

back from vacation so will have a longer look. On first glance it looks great!

Re-formatting the cookbook is a

great idea as long as the integrity of the original material is maintained.

The PT might stand some updating, but

will have to be proofed for accuracy.

I'm sure you thought of these things.

I'll forward your email to other

mods for feedback.

Some of the other mods are computer literate (I'm not), so

maybe there's an idea out there.

I just recieved a copy of it

from ID. Will look at it later today. Bruce would probably be willing to host it if it looks good. Otherwise, I have

a ton of free space on my site. I also have a treo so should be able to test it on my phone.
