I'm trying to become familiar with the new etools team in training fundraising web pages. It seems at first that I can not enter any html code to further customize the webpage (with slidehows, etc.) I would at least like to be able to add more than one photo. Has anyone any information on this or more knowledge of web pages?

I e-mailed support services and this is what they said:



Thank you for your email. Please understand that this is only version 1 of our etools software. As you know, we used to use active.com
for our online fundraising system and we just switched over to this new
system for our fall 2008 events. By writing this software ourselves we
are saving the Society over $3,000,000 and that money saved will go
directly into patient services.

With that being said, we do not allow embedded HTML code at this time.
We are looking to add this enhancement in a future release of our
software. Also, you are only allowed to upload 1 photo. A lot of
participants us a simple photo editing tool such as MS Paint and merge
photos together into a collage. Then they upload this collage into
etools.

Thank you for wanting to take the time to understand the etools functionality so that you can help your team.

4. Multiple images on our pages Nov 24, 2008 10:32 AM

I've been offering help to my team and will offer it to others if they are interested. I was disappointed to see we could only add 1 photo to our page so I got around this by using Photoshop to combine multiple photos into 1 image file so that I can have more than 1 picture on my page. You can check my page out at: http://pages.teamintraining.org/rm/wdw09/jflaherty to see what I did.

If you would like me to help you combine multiple images into 1 file, I'd be more than happy to. I'm not charging for this service but a donation would be appreciated. Give me a heads up by email before you send photo files as they sometimes can be large and I want to be able to make sure I'm here to receive them.
