CampaignWindow: How to Get Rid of the Ugly Blue Border on your Images!

Just thought I'd put up a quick note as I see this happen a lot, and it's a really easy fix-- do you have images uploaded in your sidebar linked to something, but it has an ugly blue border around it? You can avoid it by giving your image a border of 0. So, to do this, when you upload an image and insert it using the content editor, in the little popup box that shows you a preview of the image there's a field called "border" and just put a 0 in it and you're good to go!

If you already have images uploaded and need to get rid of the border, do a right-click on the image in the content editor and select "image properties" -- you'll then see the same popup described above and can give the border a value of 0.

Mondays at Manuels: CampaignWindow Training With a Twist

Last month's training went well, so we're doing it again! I've booked the North Avenue Room (that's the back room to the right from the main entrance) for July 21st, 7-9PM, for us to hang out, have a beer, and peer into laptops and get some one-on-several training with me. If you'd like to come, please RSVP.

I will give a basic training, but also to allow you to ask questions and get more in depth with specific areas you'd like to know more about. I'll share tips and tricks I've used in past campaigns, etc. and I encourage others to share what they've learned.

New CampaignWindow Template Available

Just wanted to let everyone know that a new "Add Your Banner" style template has been added. It's called "Add Your Banner XV" and it's a rounded corner-style template and available in lots of colors.

Rolling out with this new template is also a new functionality we'll be phasing in with other templates soon-- choice of browser size! Now that 1024x768 monitors are more common, we've created this template in two sizes, the old 800x600 size and also in 1024x768. We'll be converting other templates to have the larger size available as well.

Announcing the Hillary Rapid Express - Road Tripping to Denver in an RV!

August 25 through August 28, Democrats from across the country will come together in Denver for the 2008 Democratic Convention. Tens of thousands Democrats are expected in Denver. Some are going as official delegates of the Presidential candidates and many are coming because they are Democratic activists.

Well, 6 Georgia Democrats, including myself, that are going to Denver have decided to make the journey in an RV, to make this historical convention even more memorable. 4 are Hillary delegates to the convention as well. The crew members are: Bernita Smith, Angela Trigg, Nikema Williams, Jeffrey Marc Meeks, Leslie Small and Gunner Hall.

Mondays at Manuels: CampaignWindow Training With a Twist

I've been wanting to hold more local trainings, and thought I'd formalize what I've done for a few clients in the past: meet at Manuels and show you the ropes! I've booked the North Avenue Room (that's the back room to the right from the main entrance) for June 30th, 7-9PM, for us to hang out, have a beer, and peer into laptops and get some one-on-several training with me. If you'd like to come, please RSVP.

I envision this as a way for me to give a basic training, but also to allow you to ask questions and get more in depth with specific areas you'd like to know more about. I'll share tips and tricks I've used in past campaigns, etc. and I encourage others to share what they've learned.
