I've been posting pics and vids on my home in Face Book. Already had one hit on where do I find lessons. Sent him to Ohio Flyers or Lookout Mtn. And of course here.

Ok got my referral link, now what? I'm pretty computer stupid as to how I can use this or how I put it on my FB page.

I was able to add it to my profile by using this facebook application

http://apps.facebook.com/my-html/


It allows you to use any HTML you want on your profile.

Go to this report http://www.hanggliding.org/marketing/linkgen.php
and find your partner name then click GENERATE
It will give you several options of HTML code you can use.

In facebook, you have to add the HTML app I showed above.
You have to then create a "box"
You then have to move the "box" to your "wall page"
Then you can add the above HTML to it

If none of this makes sense, UGH.... facebook is NOT easy to use.
Would take me forever to describe all the steps

Oklahoma Magazine has an article on Hang Gliding.

http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/4251a2a9#/4251a2a9/16

The pilot in this picture is Warren Puckett from the DFW area. Warren is the President of the North Texas Hang/Para Gliding Association (www.nthpa.org) and a member of HangGliding.org.

(Like the Idaho Magazine, I had nothing to do with this one either.)
