Thanks for all the work you've put into this (and other community projects like the journal) Lowell. My $.02 is that your web site is great as it is - while I'm sure you could tweak it I wouldn't put too much time or $ into it if you aren't going to get compensated. Hopefully another skier who believes in the project will donate their time/skills. I'd be glad to give you any pictures I have.
Thanks Jim.
When you say, "your web site is great as it is," I assume you're referring to my ski history research site:
alpenglow.org/ski-history/
I think of that site as just a glorified digital filing cabinet. It contains a lot of information, but it's dry and not presented like a story at all. I'm not planning to change it--I'll just continue to update it.
My on-line book will be very different. It will be a detailed narrative and heavily illustrated. I never considered my research site to be the end goal. It's just a tool. I wouldn't be satisfied if that was all I ever produced from this effort.
