Pictures from 9 Sep 06 Rainbows Soccer Game

Rainbows Team and Individual Photos

In her own gentle and loving way, Vicki reminded me after we got home from the game today that I totally blew the whole Picture Day thing. I'm sorry about that. Between getting to the game late because I had to work today and rushing to get home to see the rest of the Notre Dame game I forgot all about pictures.

Let's try it again next week so I can update the site and we can all download the team pictures to print them off and stick them on the front of our refrigerators!

What's New So Far from Fall 2006

Fall 2006

  • 09 Sep 06
    • Started Trying to use the Rainbows Blog to post What's New information instead of this page. You can paste this URL "http://gorainbows.blogspot.com/atom.xml" into your favorite NewsReader and see when updates are made to the Rainbows Web Site.
    • Updated the Schedule page to add a link to the Rainbows' Fall 2006 Google Calendar and to add a link to to let you subscribe to that calendar if you have your own personal Google Account.
    • Updated the Schedule page with the score from our first game. Clicking on the Loss (0-2) link should take you to the Picasa Web Photo Album for the game.
    • Updated the Statistics page to indicate that we have no statistics for this week. Oops! We need a volunteer to keep statistics this week. Please let Coach Drew or Coach Craig know if you want to help.

    • Updated the Schedule page with this season's schedule. Still need to add the snack assignments.

  • 31 Aug 06
    • Began experimenting with the Rainbows Web Site for the 2006 Fall season. Looking at the feasibility of using Google Pages as the host of the Rainbows Web Site vice Earthlink

What's New from Spring 2006

Spring 2006

  • 21 May 06
    • Updated Stats Page. Stats summary does not include statistics for Games 1, 3, & 4
    • Added Game 8 video links
    • Updated the Parents Page with copis of the Prode Soccer Camp and Fall 2006 application forms
  • 20 May 06
    • Added Game 8 page with pictures. Video to follow

  • 16 May 06

  • 14 May 06

  • 11 May 06
    • Added links ( Part 1 and Part 2) to Game 1 video. Since this is the first video I shot it has a glaring bias of pretty much having Caroline in almost every shot. I got over that and the rest of the videos should be more "fair and balanced" and should be mostly about following the ball and everyone near it.
    • Added a page for Game 2 that has some embedded video links for the Game 2 video. The requirements of the YouTube site stipulate that each video clip uploaded can by no more than 100 MB large and 10 minutes long. That is why I have to break up the video for most games into multiple parts.

    • Updated Team Photo again. You can now click on the coaches' heads to see an individual photo.
    • Trying a new approach for the Game Summary Pages. Am trying out using Picasa to export/create web pages to display all the photos we have for each game instead of just 9 per game. Please let me know what you think. If there is no link for a game that means I don't have any pictures for that game.

    • Added scores to Schedule Page
    • Fixed broken "Home" link on all pages so it points to web site and not my hard drive!
    • Added an "E-Mail Webmaster" link to each page that sends e-mail to the "gorainbows@earthlink.net" e-mail address
    • Created a GoRainbows2 site on flickr and a GoRainbows blog at Blogspot to begin experimenting with new and expanded features and capabilities for the team.

  • 29 Apr 06 - Caroline's father, Dave Maloney, started taking over maintenance of the Rainbows web site.
    • Navigation Bar added to each page
    • Field links updated, snack assignments added, and game highlight page links added on Schedule Page
    • Added a new link on the Schedule Page to Rainbows Team Standings information on the PRIDE Soccer web site
    • Updated the Parents Page
    • Added this What's New! page
    • Began adding pictures to the game highlights pages

Go Rainbows Blog - What's New With Rainbows Web Site

Am going to try and use the Go Rainbows Blog as a replacement for the What's New page on the Go Rainbows web site. Hopefully we can use the Blog's RSS feed to easily "push" update notices to you so you know when I've updated something on the Rainbows Web site.
