Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
I "borrowed" this from another list because it seems like the best way to decide. <g>

Let's take a poll:
1. should the TXGenWeb Project sign up as a participating "society" for
this?
2. are any of you willing to become the coordinator for this?
3. are any of you willing to participate in indexing?

Dear USGenWeb Advisory Board;
On behalf of Katie Spindell, Chairman of the 2015 Lincoln Funeral
Coalition's Executive Board and Myself as Genealogical Coordinator. I
would like to ask USGenWeb to join us as a partner. Your site is made up of
volunteers and in that spirit we ask that you join us in making this event
all that it can be. You may look at our website here. And see what we are
doing to make the 150th anniversary of Lincoln's death the national event it
was the first time.
We would like to ask that we be allowed to use the USGenWeb logo on our
site with a link to the national page and ask that each state page as well
as the National link back to our web site and advertise the 2015 Funeral
Train Coalition until the event May 1-3, 2015. Our Intention is to reach as
many people as possible as we are looking for descendants of original
participants.
I volunteered with USGenWeb in Mississippi both as a county and state
coordinator from approximately 1996 to 2002. Katie was the author of Keeley
s Korner a special project during the same time period. We personally know
the helpful attitude of the volunteers and would like to speak with you more
on the matter. My cell number is 601-668-8309 and I can 3-way Katie in to
answer any questions you have that I cannot answer.
I look forward to hearing from you and hope we can work together on this
project.
Sincerely,
Linda Mason Armstrong

Hi everyone,
The USGenWeb has signed up to help FamilySearch.org index the 1940 census!
We're listed under the participating "Societies" (they didn't have an option
for a Project as such to register). If your state project would like to
participate, you'll need to register as a participating "society" too (under
the USGenWeb Project "umbrella"). To register as either a participating
society or an individual transcriber (indexer), go to
http://the1940census.com/. Participating projects/societies can add one of
the Society badges displayed at
https://the1940census.com/society/society-badges-3/ on their sites, as well
as the individual indexers can participate in the Societies Games and
Prizes.
If you have any problems, please let either Linda Lewis
(webmaster(a)cottonhills.com) or I (usgenwebnc(a)windstream.net) know so we can
help. I know that we can mobilize an army to help indexing the census when
it is released next week - please help make that happen!

Shirley,
I do not remember talking about this and I will not be ready to move the
domain by then. What is the significance of this date, other than tax
day? LOL

The re-vised # 2 image is now working.
However, I re-downloaded the larger #15 image and it still saved at a much smaller size than the creator intended. I will have Colleen take a look and try to send the larger version to me.

Excellent. But I'm getting a 404 not found error on the added #2 logo:
<http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~mtgenweb/logosearch/mtlogo2.jpg>
<http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~mtgenweb/logosearch/b2.jpg>
And the new copy of #15 (7b.jpg ; 150x88) is not larger, though it is
cleaner AND has curved borders instead of perfectly square.

A larger version of logo # 15 has been added to the Logo page in order to make the details more visible.
A version of logo # 2 has been added that does not have the beige background (as suggested). Please keep in mind that this type of change can be made to any of the logos.
