I'm including the SAC-Board list in this message in hopes of preventing
multiple mentions of the same items.

The front page looks good.  There is an error there though.  The next
meeting is September 20th and the one after that is October 18th.

Also, title image at the top of the page does not reached the top of the
page.  There seems to be a black border surrounding the page that makes
the diffraction spikes around the S appear to be clipped before the
top-edge of the page.

If you want a larger, clearer image of the SAC logo, just let me know.  I
have it available as a Postscript file as well (I think it might be
available) a Corel Draw file.  The original image I used for the
newsletter was created in SmartSketch, exported as Postscript and then
imported in Corel Draw (come to think of it, I might not have imported it
into Corel Draw).  I took one of the club's original drawings of the logo,
scanned it in and the traced it out using SmartSketch.  That took about 16
hours total (I traced it twiced because the first time wasn't scaleable).

On WhoisSAC.htm:

  Please change the first sentence under "Club Yearly Dues":

      Membership is $28 a year (pro-rated quarterly for new members)
      and includes the club newsletter.

  You can copy over the PDF file of the SAC Membership Serivces Form and
  include a link under "how to join".

On contacts.htm:

  Please look into using javascript for generating the mailto: links.  The
  plain mailto: links are easily scanned for E-mail addresses by spammers.

On the newsletter page:

  I have PDFs of the newsletter from January 1990 through Febuary 1999. 
  Rick Tejera has them from late 1999 up to the present.

On Meetings:

  You can find the 2003 calendar at:

On Novice Info -> Star Party Etiquette:

  Please add bullet points (or something) to break apart each of the
  items.
