The above scene captures New York City prior to the tragic events of September 11, 2001. The New York skyline will never be the same and neither will any of us. Our thoughts and prayers are extended to all those who lost their lives and to the friends and families they left behind.

Charter for HPO NewsGroup

To submit your page for HPO's review, simply post your page at the News Group. Be sure to include the url of your site. And, if you have any specific areas you want the group to address, be sure to note this in your post.

All are welcome to request review. However, sites with pornography, hate, racism, items for sale, spam and adult content should not be posted. Treating other posters with respect is required.

Simply posting in the NewsGroup, either with a request to review your own page and posting your opinion of another poster's site, makes you an HPO member.

~ Posting Your Site

We welcome the opportunity to review your site. There is a wide range of experience level in our membership group to give you input from spelling to overall design to html coding. You can be sure to obtain honest, helpful opinions from the group.

~ Reviewing Another's Site

Your opinions matter to the site owner and the group. Whether you are experienced or not so experienced in web page design, offer your opinions on that area in which you feel comfortable. This could include:

. Loading time
. Use of graphics and midis
. Ease of navigation
. Properly working links
. Overall page design
. Content
. Spelling, punctuation
. Guestbook accessibility
. Use of text color, bg's

Provide opinions to the site owner on what you liked and thought might be done a little different. Remember, we are here to share, help and learn from each other.
