Frequently Asked Questions

---

The content of classmate profiles on this web site serves as a database for each class' reunion committee. Please remember to keep your profile up-to-date with current contact information, and enjoy using this site as a portal to reconnect with old friends between graduating years.

Please take a few minutes of your time to update your Classmate Profile. Click the Classmate Profiles tab in the top left navigation, select your graduating year and then find your name. Click on your name and follow the instructions to create your login.  If you can not find your name on the Classmate Profiles page, please use the Contact Us page to have your name added. Once you create a profile, you will also be able to see the profiles of your fellow classmates and interact with them.

Married kOne of you will need to create a unique email address to distinguish between individual profile messages sent to you. Gmail, a free email system via Google, is available HERE.

For those of you with spam blocking or email filtering capabilities with your email accounts, please add noreply@classcreator.net to your email account as a safe sender in order to receive email communication from this web site.

Although this site is set up for the class of '74, we will continue to welcome alumni from other graduating years to participate. We realize that there are a number of siblings and spouses that cross many years.  We welcome classmates who went to school with us but did not graduate with us. Faculty are also welcome. Please email me (Contact Us) so that I may set up a Teacher or Guest Profile for you.

All contact information that you enter into this website will be kept confidential. It will not be shared or distributed. Your contact information is private: your address and phone number can't be seen by the classmates unless you grant permission on your profile. When someone clicks on your name, all they will see of your contact information is your city and state and whatever information about yourself you choose to put on your web page. Your email address is not viewable, though an email can be sent to you using the contact box at the bottom of your web page. However, if you reply to or send a message to someone through their profile, they will see your email address so that they can respond. You have the option of password protecting your personal profile which blocks the general public and search engines from accessing your profile details.

 If you change your email address, mailing address, or phone number, please update those details in your profile. We would like to keep our database as current as possible.  Use the Edit Profile function under the Member Functions in the left navigation. 

 If you click "Remember Me" when you log in, you will not need to log in next time you go to the site. Please Note: there is a password retrieval feature to click on ("Forgot Password?") in case you need to log in sometime and can't remember your password; the password will be sent to your email inbox. Click Here For Password Retrieval.  You can login from computers other than your home computer but you will need to enter your password.

Answer: No. The "cookie scare" of the late 1990s was largely based on misconceptions that cookies stored on your computer's hard drive somehow violated privacy. Erroneous information regarding cookies has long since been corrected, and cookies are a common programming practice used today by some of the Internet's largest web sites. There is nothing Class Creator does with cookies that will in any way jeopardize your privacy, store personal information about you, or submit your personal information to other web sites.

1. Be sure you are logged in on the Home Page. In the links on the left side under MEMBER FUNCTIONS, click on the link: Edit/Upload Photos.
   
2. The Photo page will appear and you’ll see a gray box titled: Upload New photo. Click on this box and you will be at the Add Photo page.
   
3. The Add Photo page gives basic instructions for uploading your photos. There are 3 places on this page to make entries. Sort: The sort number controls the order in which photos display on your page. By default your pictures will appear in the order you entered them, so this isn’t important for your first picture. But later if you want picture #5 to appear as #1, you will have to change the sort numbers on your pictures. If you delete a picture, the sort numbers for the remaining pictures do not change (e.g., if you delete picture #2 out of 4 pictures, you will show pictures #1, 3, and 4.) Caption: Caption is the description you write for your picture. Browse: This is the most important one, for this is how you find the picture on your computer and get it to appear on your page.
   
4. Your first picture will automatically be Sort Number 1.
   
5. Now click the Browse button. A list of folders on your computer will show up. Locate the folder that holds your picture. For most classmates this will be the My Pictures folder located in the My Documents folder. When you have clicked through to your picture file, click the view button at the top to show icons as pictures. This makes it easier to find the specific picture you want to upload.
   
6. Select the picture you want to upload by clicking on it once, and then click Open at the bottom of the box.
   
7. Now you will be taken back to the Add Photo page and in the Upload Photo box you will see the path to your picture.
   
8. Enter the Caption for your picture in the box.
   
9. Click the SAVE CHANGES button. Now go to your Profile page and look for your picture and caption. Shortcut for multiple pictures: If you are uploading several pictures that are in different folders, you can copy them to your desktop, then delete them later. Make sure you COPY, not move, your pictures, so you won’t delete the original.If you are still having problems, please email me.
