My favorite way to experience Bradenton and Manatee County the way locals do
Thanks Rick! Great website. I've been spreading the word myself. I know I need to work on my profile pronto. I'm the asst manager at Keeton's Office & Art Supply and would love to add this website to our artist page. If you would like to send me the link to Natashaj@keetonsonline.com I would love to do and send the word out viva our e-newsletter "The Nook".
Hi Rick,
This is a wonderful idea, bringing all our artists together. Don't know how many people are aware of the Artist's Market at Art League Manatee, not to mention the better than ever shows . Thanks for your welcome, Judith
1) When I go to my page on the Bradenton site, all the linked graphics that are normally on the right, are on the left - and kind of squashed, cut off. They push the profile graphic down below them. This doesn't happen on the Sarasota TVB profile page - likely because it's set up differently - and there are only ads in the right column.
2) When I log on to AA and go to my page, all the linked graphics have returned to their correct positions in the right column, but just above them there is an anomalous floating rectangle button which says "Reset". It's positioned over the line that says "Village of the Arts Links" and directly to the left and down just a bit from the "Edit" button. I've played with it but it does nothing when clicked. I've tried some editing in that box to no avail. And it always gets stuck with the little circle spinning endlessly until I close the page and return - and usually any edits have taken. Again, this isn't an issue on the Sarasota profile page.
3) I've also noticed that the "Who's Online" button has disappeared from the choices on the Sarasota page. That may be a site-wide change you made - but just thought I'd mention it.
that's it. nothing major. a few little annoying things. I have put my page link out there though - and know that the b'town page appears to be a slightly askew to anyone who's dropping in to AA who isn't a member all ready.
Hey Rick, I just noticed that something weird is going on with my page. When I'm logged in on my page, there is this floating "reset" button over in the right column at the top of my "Village links" section. It doesn't seem to be governed by the grid in the level below it. Then, when I log out and look at my page, everything has moved around and seems to be in the wrong place. Somebody hacked me? Or just glitches in a new system?
Bradenton's Village of the Arts wants to inform the local art community of the death of our most esteemed and eldest artist and friend, Ruth Cade, of Cade Gallery, 13th Ave. West. Ruth died suddenly the morning of November 18. She had not been ill and appeared to have died peacefully.… Continue

I come back to Walt Whitman,
What in the hell happened to him,
Wasn’t he a white man?
