This thread is to discuss the Web site our firm is creating for Razer Media. I want to get a status update and review our outstanding tasks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joyce Fleming [1:06 P.M.]
As the project designer, I still need to design the template for the online order form, complete the Customer Review page, and upload all the photos for the Our History page.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Janet Lee [1:12 P.M.]
I’m not assigned to this project, but Joyce asked me to test the functionality of what she’s created so far. I noticed that when loading the Contact Us page, the text of the staff profiles does not align properly.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Douglas Ragland [1:15 P.M.]
I didn’t realize there were so many outstanding issues. The Web site launches on October 1, so we have to wrap everything up within two weeks.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joyce Fleming [1:23 P.M.]
I’ll also need a few days to proof everything after the site is created, but before it goes live.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Janet Lee [1:27 P.M.]
That’s probably too much work for one person.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Douglas Ragland [1:30 P.M.]
So, here’s the plan: Joyce, you can work on the photos, template, and review page. Janet, could you help address the alignment issues? I’ll test out the site once it’s all finished.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joyce Fleming [1:32 P.M.]
That sounds like a great plan, Douglas. If we work as a team, there will be no issue meeting the deadline.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Janet Lee [1:35 P.M.]
I’m sorry, but I’m on vacation all next week, so I can’t help.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Douglas Ragland [1:38 P.M.]
Okay. I’ll assign another designer to assist Joyce.
