9:35 -- Shelly Dates calls to discuss signage for her "make it happen" conference.

9:45 -- start to compose reply to Debi's email question about the photographer's invoice cancellation, Debi comes over to ask in person, I explain the whole thing (i couldn't pay the invoice from my personal paypal account so J. Tyler had to cancel the invoice so it was no longer outstanding). Debi also tells me about a new vendor that will take our webpage and HTML email assets and do all the back-end/functionality work for us. She is still concerned that i will not make any of my deadlines.

1:45 -- browse thru Mason's "adverts" inspiration folder, find an idea for our CS email, a way to present thumbnails.

2:15 -- send email to run it by the rest of the group. build layered PSD with very rough animations for mason to turn into the flash banner on the OM/xerox index page.

4:40 -- write up instructions for Mason, email sent. Joel stops by to see my progress (and i make an FPO image and place it on the page so he can see) and show me the latest copy. since Joel is out tomorrow, we decide to send copy to Marci (client) and me at the same time, and we will incorporate her edits into my layouts on monday. i remind Joel that i need to see what Mason decides to do with our banner before i design my banners for the other pages.

5 -- slice up the nav bar, build a table and put in placeholder links. try to figure out how to stretch a GIF to 100% height (no cigar) (yet).
