Dear Lesher researchers. I have recently retired and can now devote more attention to our list and Lesher research. Thanks to two of our members I now have a few copies of the Lesher Newsletter which has not been published for many years. I will certainly be making those available on request in the near future. Please hold up your requests just a bit until I get our permissions squared away. I have written the publisher, Don Lesher in Florence CA for permission and also to solicit his participation. I have also requested space in Rootsweb for a Lesher page and just received that yesterday. Now, just as soon as I get a bit smarter, that will be available for you to post more permanent information. There are a number of guidelines and I'll copy them here for your information. 1. Upload no copyrighted material, except with permission and notice of that permission should accompany the document. 2. Upload no commercial material. 3, Commercial advertising banners will appear at the top and at the bottom of each Web page. These banners will require no programming by webmasters. Simply upload your Web site to RootsWeb and the banners will appear automatically. Please do not attempt to "defeat" these banners or your account may be closed. 4, Please notify RootsWeb of any changes in account ownership, email address, or project affiliation. 5, Freepages accounts may be used for publicly accessible material but not for online backup. Also, please do not upload GEDCOM files to Freepages accounts. They should be uploaded to _WorldConnect_ (http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/) and then you can link to your files there. 6. If you wish to use affiliate links (those commercial links that pay you for the folks that click on them), you may only link to official MyFamily/Ancestry affiliates. To learn more about this program, visit _Ancestry's Partners Page_ (http://www.ancestry.com/home/partner/affiliate.asp) . 7 FreePages accounts may NOT be used only as a redirect to sites off of RootsWeb. 8 FreePages accounts may NOT be used for file storage - whether it is MP3 files, zip files, video files, huge images files, etc. Accounts that are being used in this manner will be closed.
