Topic: Welcome... Some Details about this site. Posted: 20 Feb 2005 at 10:09am |
I wanted to take a mintue and welcome everyone that has been
joining... It has been kind of unexpected. I
would like to do some more things with the trip planner function,
personal pages, and other things. Feel free to take a look around some
time and leave me some feedback on what else you think would be nice to
have here.
Thanks again for stopping by and checking this out. I look forward to
adding a ton of footage of our states paddlers and making this site a
wealth of paddling fun!
Hope to see you out on the river

Chuck -e- Frizzesh
I actually am working on my first kayakumbistulizum. Hopefully that
will really help me raise support for my new country I am trying to
build "Kayakistan". We are accepting new applications for citizenship,
all we have to do is kick some lingering people off thier land so we
can move in!!!!

James,
New member and this is my first posting...but great site! Thanks for putting this together! Wonderful to river flow updates when you walk out the door knowing it's as close as it gets not four hours ago.
I'm a class III getting into IV boater who has been paddling a little over a year and am always looking for people to boat with.
Thanks for all your work

James- As you know, I'm not new but I have a few comments anyway. Odds are you have already thought of these but just in case, here you go. &nb sp;
1. A link to the NOAA NW river forecasts page would be great. http://www.nwrfc.noaa.gov/ 2. Record the river level at the start time of posted trips. This would be a great addition to the trip log. It would be nice to see what level I (or others) ran things at in the past. 3. Currently, the website records me as a participant on every trip I comment on... not good. I don't want people to mistakenly think I have run Tumwater, they might get the wrong impression and think I'm a good paddler. &nbs p; 4. You mention the abilty to post a trip with a change of location if the levels change in the how to use the trip planner section. I can't figure out how.
Once again, thanks for the website James. It is appreciated.

THanks for the input and encouragement. I appreciate it all.
1. Where do you want the link to NOAA?
2. If you visit any of the past trips you will see that we log the flow
at the beginning of the trip and the end of the trip. Of course the
length of the trip is dependant upon how long you suspect your self of
being on the river.
Example: Mid Week on the Mid Fork Trip
You will notice this is a trip page that has already finished. If you
look under the list of who has joined you will see the post trip
details. That should be what you are looking for, and a little more !!!
3. If you are refering to the Personal Pages, MY BAD. Everyone now
knows that I have some sloppy code running around here, and unfinished.
I will fix this sooner rather then later but you are a good tester Tom,
keep it up and left me know where else you see those little boo boo's.
4. You can't do that yet .... Sorry that is an function being pondered
on and planned for the next version of professorpaddle.com well call it
something like ProfessorPaddle Bent Shaft Edition.
Oh and really quick thanks for joining Alan. I am glad hear that folks
are using the site. It makes our group better and more versatile, which
is always a good thing. Hope to see you out on the river sometime soon.

James. I figured you already knew about some of my comments, thanks for the info. As for the NOAA forecast, the ideal situation would be to have the link to each rivers forecast next to the link to the rivers name on the flow page, but I suspect making that many links would be way too much work. Maybe just a link on the top of the flows page would be good.
See on the Sky Saturday. Tom

I dont want to add anymore to the flows page. Many because it will
start to get really cluttered. However I could add a little forcast
Icon on the River Details Page. Tell me what you think of that.

Chuckalodeon,
I can not be the Gov-na or the sheriff. Cause in Kayakistan there is no Law.
We will live and die by the (paddle) blade. Now that I start thinking
about it more in depth I suppose having a nurse would be good, so you
could hit that up. Let me know.
Nurse Chuckalickadon
That has a nice old sounding ring too it, like a dinosaur.
