So I'm not getting along very well with Convio, the program that RFL event Web sites are designed on. Our online chair had some issues gaining access with her user name recently so our staff partner gave us another log in to try.

It's about 1:10 in the morning on Thanksgiving and I've been trying for two hours to change some stuff on the page.

Convio doesn't seem to be friendly to Firefox or Safari (I'm a Mac user ... you'd think they would have made it compatible with at least one Apple-friendly browser).

I've had some luck trying to update our event's Web page but it's very, very difficult. Once I clicked edit in the browser, some times it would let me edit things, other times it wouldn't. I tried using the HTML code but I know the very basic stuff with HTML so I didn't want to get too deep and not be able to fix it.

I've read the manuals online and tried using the help feature on the site builder with no luck.

So far, I'm not sold on Convio. I can't compare it to whatever was used in previous years, but it's really not user-friendly. I've talked to other volunteers who are having similar issues, too.

Our kick-off is a week from Thanksgiving and I needed to get our page live.

You'll see that it is live if you click the link to the Moon event but it took forever for me to get the little bit of stuff that's up there to work.

I'm a pretty patient guy, so hopefully I can sit down with it this weekend, take a few deep breaths and get it all together.

*hopefully*
