Dear Randy,

I really liked your site. Those photographs are amazing!  You've been
to some beautful places. I've added your pages to Loads-a-links, under
the main 'serious' section, and then in the index under the
'photographs', 'personal home pages' and travel' sections. For one
week only they will appear in the 'added this week' section.

I gave your page five stars. Out of all of my links, you are only the
second to get five stars. Well done! :)

I'd like to make your pages my site of the week for next week, and so
I will arrange this tomorrow morning when I update my home page.

Many thanks for visiting Loads-a-links. Please continue to visit
in the future.

Neil Dodd

Hi--

We have selected one of your photographs for the Picture of the Times,
a bi-weekly spotlight of the best photography on the net. Rather than
placing yet another graphic to load on your site, if you would link
back to our site to let people know about the award, feel free to
place a text link near the photo that was honored.  Our URL is:

Thanks for letting us spotlight your work!  Keep us posted on future
endeavors!

Subject: Magical Moments has been awarded a Four-Star rating.  

Congratulations! It's not every day that stars fall out of the sky. In fact,
that kind of thing is bound to hurt someone. Nonetheless, we're dropping a
few stars on your site for its excellence. Of the more than 150,000 Web
sites that we've checked out, our editors believe that your site* should be
publicly recognized as a Luckman Four-Star winner.

In acknowledgment of your efforts, we have attached Luckman Interactive's
Four-Star logo. This mark of excellence is something that we only bestow
upon the Web's finest sites. Put it on your site as a shining reward for
your hard work. 

In addition to your Four-Star award, a review of your site will be featured
in the new edition of our book and interactive CD-ROM-- Luckman
Interactive's "World Wide Web Yellow Pages." Our regularly updated guide to
the Web was awarded similar praise, from "PC Computing"
(December, 1996). The magazine picked our product as one of only six
Internet tools to receive its highest award. Currently, both our CD-ROM
(distributed by TechData and Ingram) and our book versions (published by
Barnes & Noble) have hit the bestseller lists. 

...

Again, congratulations on this, your first Luckman award.

Sincerely,

The Editors of Luckman Interactive
