  PERSONAL FUNDRAISING PAGE QUESTIONS
  
  Q: My donors can't donate to the link that I provided.
  A: Chances are you aren't giving them the right link. To find your link click here http://etools.teamintraining.org/los/ . Start typing in your first name. Your name should appear and click on it. Next copy down the web address, that is your fundraising link to your personal site.
  
  Q: How do I edit my website?
  A: You must log in first here: http://etools.teamintraining.org/signin
  Follow the prompts. You can add a photo and customize your website to tell people what you're doing and to ask them to donate.

  You can use various styles (heading, large text, body text) to emphasize and organize your message. You can also enter a link to a blog or wherever. Just select text and hit the link (chain) button. Some people update their page weekly with a log of their training progress.

  Photos fit in best if they are 300 pixels across or narrower. Definitely not more than 500 pixels wide or the page format is affected. If you don't know how to resize a digital photo, email it to Web Captain.
