Members Area -Testing

A new feature to our website is an area for only Members of the Guild to access content limited to Members. The Members Area will include the full set of Demonstration Videos links, the full Newsletter Archive links, access to special documents LAG has prepared for members, and the List of Current LAG Members with phone numbers and e-mail addresses. From the List of LAG Members, you will be able to follow a link per member to see the full Artist Profile for the member and if the member has a Featured Artist web page, you will be able to follow a link to go to that page.

While Testing, this area currently limited to a few board members and others who are assisting with testing. Any member who wants to participate in testing can reach out to [email protected]. Once development and testing is complete, all LAG Members will have an account and be able to set their own password to enter the Members Area and a menu item will be added for convenient access. Once ready, Mike will be sending out e-mail notices with information for each member about their account and how to view the Members Area.
