RCTQ Recipe Book

I am up to the challenge! I would have done it even without the cookie
bribe! I have my own webspace so I maintain my own site. We'll need to get
some ideas of what goes on the site. I thought since we are doing a
website, we could have a page with the categories, then each recipe page
could have the recipe, the submitter, state or country of the submitter,
some comments about the recipe's origin or other info, a quilting tip, a
favorite quilting site, a favorite non-quilting site. What do you think?
We can submit recipes via email with RCTQ Recipe in the subject.

The floor is now open for comments.

OK, can you teach me how to do this? I have OSX and the free version of
Adobe Reader (or is it acrobat?).

This is built in to MacOS X (I use OS 9 with the driver from Acrobat).
It's easier than printing since the converter can't jam or run out of
paper.

I like this idea the most of all that have been tossed into the arena so
far. This way everyone who wants to partake of the recipes can do so. I was
worried about Web Tvers not getting a copy.
Thank you for offering to take on this task. Thanks to everyone who
offered to take on any aspect of the job. I do think this is one of those
times to K.I.S.S.

What I hope to be able to do this weekend is set up a test page on my
website with a fill-in form. That way, anyone who wants to participate just
has to fill in the form and send it off. The form will help keep everything
consistent and will indicate what info is needed. Stay tuned!

I've only just caught up with this thread, been changing over from using
FreeAgent to Netscape for reading the newsgroup, and have managed to
miss out on loads of stuff - but this header certainly caught my eye - I
mean, RCTQ recipes = great food, and for a quilter, thats almost as good
as fabric!!

Can someone briefly fill me in with whats happening and what I need to

Suzie, nothing to do yet but to decide what recipe or recipes you want to
include. I will get a form created on my webpage for folks to fill out
which will then get emailed to me. I will take it from there. The form
will have all the spaces to include the required information. I will then
put the recipe on yet to be named recipe page. I will post an announcement
when the form is open for business. I just want to make sure no one has any
objections. Are we good to go with a webpage everyone? Any other
recommendations, suggestions..........?

Alice, I think it's a wonderful idea. Thanks for offering to do this. I was
talking to DH about it after I posted about making a cookbook. He kept
asking me questions about how I was planning to send it to everyone. When I
told him I would email it he started in about how you can only send a
certain size file if using a hotmail account and all that. I began to
wonder what I had gotten myself into. So I'm really glad we got the problem
solved. Thank you thank you thank you. I'm really looking forward to trying
recipes from all the RCTQ people here. It's going to be fun.

Mika

Mika, we currently have such a project in the works. There is a form where
you can add your recipes. The link is in my siggy if you are interested.
We have collected over 150 recipes so far. I am currently in the midst of
putting them in the format for the web version of the cook book. Stay
tuned........
