[Helpers] Looking for inspiration.

[Mystress Angelique Serpent]

   The image on the right side of the new design... the goofy one of me with the candle & knife... what the heck is that supposed to mean? Shine the light and cut away the karma? Looks kind of scary. The image was borrowed from www.domin8rex.com/vault and only intended as a placeholder while I thought of something better... except I am not inspired.  Please somebody think of something better? What would work and look good in that corner? 

  I've been working on the preview pages, and trying to get organized by making a new work file for them,  and I've gotten a lot done on the preview, but at this point I am a little lost. 

  Some content is repeated, some of it needs to be moved to a different page... I will upload the current work in progress, can someone look at it with a fresh eye and add notes to the 'preview work list' I will post in another email? 

 I am redoing the index page according to an ebook I got about "killer mini websites" using their formula. Work in progress:

<a href="http://www.fire-serpent.org/fscnew/current/index.html">old Index.</a>
<a href="http://www.fire-serpent.org/fscnew/current/1indexnew.html">New index work in progress</a> I know it is ugly, still working on the content. 
Why is quote table cut off? 

  I did make a new form for the preview, dunno where the old one got to. I suspect the new form probably has errors and needs tweaking... Sachiko can you look it over? 
<a href="http://www.fire-serpent.org/fscnew/current/NEWFORM.html">Fire Serpent Tantra-Level 1: TITLE</a>new form.

  The navbar could be made into flash, it is the same on all pubic pages except the sample lessons, but I think it might be best to wait until the public/preview pages are closer to being finished. I feel like the preview is too big, and would like to delete some pages and links. All the marketing research I am doing says the public part should be short as possible.. I always knew that, but I had a lot to say!! LOL! 

 There is a tiny but boring job to be done, and that is making meta-refresh pages with the name of the old lesson files that goes to the new ones, so students lesson bookmarks won't go out of date all at once when the new site goes live. No hurry for that. 

  I was working on the new lesson 1 again last night. I am looking for some quotes to put into the "experiences" section of it. Can some helpers please be inspired to write a short note about your experience of the course, particularly the energy of it, and how you have been pacing yourself- speed of lesson progress. What would you like to share with future students? 

  Thanks, everyone!
