Images were scanned in (using either an Epson
1200c 'cat'scanner, an Acer 310-S, Acer 3200U, or Acer 620-ST), inputted
directly from Sony Mavica (MVC-FD7, MVC-FD91, MVC-FD95, MVC-FD97, & DSC-F717)
or Canon Digital Rebel digital cameras, or captured using an ATI All in Wonder Radeon 9800 or 9700, an ATI
All-In-Wonder Pro, a Lightning Video, a 3DFX Vodoo 3500, or an ATI All-in-Wonder
128. Images are sized and manipulated using CD-Cabin-Pro.
(We highly recommend it!) Additional web design is done through Webtricity.
Image maps are created with Coffee Cup.
The website is maintained with an IWill system
powered by an AMD Athlon Thunderbird XP CPU running at 2400+ with 768 meg
of ECC DDRAM via a BreezeNet SA-10 wireless brick with a 1.5
meg pipe to the internet with back-up connections on 3COM/USR
Courier V.everything and Acer 56k EX/2 V.90 modems. The site is edited
with the Alt/Edit Windows text editor.
Logging of user hits ()
began in late June 1996. The count is much lower than actuals due
to the late start to logging, a hacker break-in into the main Webhost in
the fall of 1996 and a Webhost hard drive failure in the fall of 1997.
(The Canups do not use Canupnet as their home page upon logging onto the
Internet. Therefore, hit numbers do not reflect every time that the
Canups log onto the net.) As users browse through Canupnet, only
one hit is reported on the counter no matter how many pages are accessed.
Although we have added no browser specific features, we
recommend the Netscape Navigator browsers.
If any page, image, or link, fails to come up upon request,
please report this to the Webmaster
