Let me know what you guys like better.

I have noticed that this excel spreadsheet is around 500k and is starting to get really slow to access online, i was wondering if you guys like the PDF version better?

I will post the link to both version and would like some feedback on which one you guys like better or if you have any other options or ideas.

If you can't read the PDF version go to www.adobe.com and download the acrobat reader.


Edit these donte exsist anymore

Try re-creating your pdf version, looks like you had it set to go to one page.

Edit-

If you're having problems with file size, try breaking it up into separate files. Maybe one for the contact info, one for the schedule, and one for the standings. Just a thought.

The .pdf is much better. Using the hand, you can view everything with great ease...and it's much faster...good job man...GAME ON BOYS!!!

Like I said, it was just a thought.

Regarding distillier, I'm not sure. I usually use the PDF writer.

I like excel better- I never did like pdf format.....

But like another person said- you should split it up. Having 3 links on top- Teams, Schedule, Standings

I use the writter also i meant the distiller as in when you go to File print and output it to your adobe distiller to convert it to PDF.


Anyways i got it to 4 pages now take a look and give me some feedback.

The backup thing is confusing on contacts...

Also- everything's longer than should be- reduce the legnth and it should be good

What do you guys think of us setting up some type of prize for the superbowl champ? I think it would be nice for us to come up with something for the winner :) Let me hear some opinions on that, I think the winner should be able to choose his or her game and thats the game they will win. Now we just have to workout how we can cordinate this. :confused:

That's a great idea. It's always mor fun when there is something tangible at stake. A game would be the most appropriate thing, too.

Thats excally what i was thinking.

Honestly since im running it you guys can trust me, im not going to be stupid and run off with money i put a lot of time into creating this and organzing everything with a lot of help from some good people.

So it's upto everyone , maybe every send $2 to also cover shipping. 2x32 is $64 that sounds fair enough ?

Then the winner will pick the game he/she wants and i will go and buy it at the store for them and ship it.


Let me know guys.

Looks good mentor. Regarding your question about PDF writer, to change it from one page to multiple pages, I think the setting you need to change is in Excel. Try changing the scaling on the page setup. Personally, I like the separate files better tho. Regarding the $2, I'm definitely in.
