Very nice, Kendall. What's the location of the photo on the home page, and what's the square structure?
Yeah, I know it's not a lighthouse, but I was hoping...

We are still working on it, and I requested a change. The address is now:: www.captainkendallmorse.com

I dont know what that structure is in the background, but it is going to be replaced by a photo of Portland Head Light.

Nice site! Brag on yourself more, though, and turn that intro into one of your wonderful stories.

Is "Lights Along The Shore" how the album is titled, or should all the words be capitalized?



I also really think you need to add a shot of you in the leather coat with all of us groupies stroking it, and Jacqui standing serenely secure in the background.

Good job Dan, but how did you talk Kendall into the picture section? I mean I kid him a lot but geeziz....a porn section?

Anyway it IS well done with some really nice and fairly entertaining photos. My favorite is of course the Captain getting his hat blown by that giant squid although a close runner-up would have to be the video where he puts 4 dozen grunnion in his pants.

Great job Dan - I've emailed a photo of Kendall's choice for the background.

I also really think you need to add a shot of you in the leather coat with all of us groupies stroking it, and Jacqui standing serenely secure in the background.

Janie - I've checked all the photos and we don't have one like that. I think that we will have to arrange a photo shoot at the Getaway, which means that all you ladies HAVE to attend!

Spaw - the squid photo was the most difficult. Kendall was OK with it but the squid...........

You'll hear about it on the interview, I'm sure.

The building the background (the original picture) is the paleolithic dance hall where Kendall first sang. It's located near Winchester, Illinois, which at the time was still on the coast.

Great site - the photograph, oddly enough, looks like one of the German-built fortifications on the Channel Island of Alderney in the UK - and the coastline also looks very similar. If it is - how flattering! If not, it still looks good. :-)

Trubrit,
A Voice From The Past is an old recording of some stuff I did with three other guys back in 1980. There are only 7 cuts, done bluegrass style.

I wonder where you are tonight
The girl I left in sunny Tennessee
Over the hill to the poor house
Gold watch and chain
Jesse James

Darling pal of mine
Rolling home


Bob French banjo
Smokey Greene bass
Al Hawkes mandolin

This was made after a long day of jamming, and it was just done for fun and novelty.

i was reading you book and can't stop laughing ... Those stories are priceless. For anyone that hasn't read it buy a copy from the captain I laughed all night long.

I tested the site here at my office, everything is so high speed that it really isn't the best test and I only tested against two of the most common browsers. However if something goes out in the weeds on a slower speed or just whacks out please PM me and I can change the resolution. The graphics are pretty big.

Gonna put it away now; just once a day for a while. Thanks buddy! Hey... maybe Kendall could put a plug in for ya on his new site if ya ask him nice an' all eh?

Now, that is one helluva terrific lighthouse photo! The old guy in front looks pretty good, too. Hey, Dan, do you think you can Photoshop in a leather jacket, to keep the ladies happy?

Nice job! It really is a good photo - who took it? That lighthouse has been photographed so many times that it's hard to get an angle that looks original. This one is very nice.

That lighthouse is said to be the most photogenic in the country. It was commissioned by George Washington himself in 1790.

15 May 09 - 04:07 PM (#2632767)
Subject: RE: Kendall's new web site
From: olddude

When you scroll down, that will happen because it is a scrolling photo and it will dup itself to fit the Java control for reading the about or music info. With a photo like this one you see it. On other sites they have something just like water so the image looks constant. I figured unless it was really annoying I would leave it for time reasons

Subject: RE: Kendall's new web site
From: olddude

LOL you bet GNU
what I think I may do is move the music info to 4 columns across and that ill prevent the scroll dup. interesting it all depends on your screen resolution. On my it is set so high that dup doesn't happen. I think making it 2 or 4 across will stop the bottom picture
