New Design Coming Soon

2009-04-21T05:08:00.003-04:00

Well, I know everyone is anxious for the newly designed sites to go on line. I just wanted to let everyone know that it is fast approaching time for them to go on line with the new design.

I know it has taken a very long time for this to take place, and I appreciate the patience of all my visitors. This was a massive project and when you see the new site on line you will understand why it took so long. Many new features and programs have been added.

I am pushing to have the new site up and running by May 15, 2009. If a further delay happens I will let all my visitors know. This is the first time, since the project began, I have felt confident enough to even post a date.

Visitor's can expect the site to go down for a short time while the newly design sites, folders, and pages go on line. I will be deleting the old and replacing it with the new so it could take a while. Visitors may happen to visit while it is in progress and may only get partial pages. Once the site is fully operational all folders and pages should be working efficiently and properly. Pain staking care will be done to assure this.

Thank you all for your support and patience.

I wish all my visitors all the best.

Take care.....Becky K

Redesign of TLTH Sites Continues

2009-03-01T03:04:00.003-05:00

I am sorry to announce that this redesign is taking far longer then I even anticipated. I have battled a few miner setbacks with my health, but I am back working hard to get things done. I am still dedicated to the completion of this project. Believe and trust that when it is completed, my visitors will not be disappointed.

To understand the task at hand let me explain by listing the points below itemizing the changes which are being done, along with the redesign. I wanted to offer my visitors mor detail here so you can fully grasp why this project will take so long to complete.

* The redesign itself is a massive undertaking on a site as large as mine.
I am doing this to all three sites. This means every page must be coded with the new design. I have completely changed the design of the site with brand new graphics made by me.

* A new navigation feature is being added and long pages of the sites will have an expandable page feature added to them to allow for shorter pages.

* Editing and updating information on many pages of the sites.
This is an ongoing process. Fixing links, mistakes gone unnoticed before, and repairing broken code is a continual process. This is painstaking process. I will be going through the pages with a fine tooth comb, so to speak, to make sure everything is right.

* New programs, pages, and services will be added to the sites.

Forum - The forum will be added and linked from all sites. It will allow visitors a place to post information, get updated about site changes, and chat with other visitors and people on the internet. It will offer a wide variety of help, support, and interaction. After the new design is finished, it will be the main area of updated information and ongoing support for all visitors.

New Links Page - Helpful links will be handled differently with the new design. There will be separate page provided by a different service to allow visitors to add their information links as they choose or enter their own site links under a category listed on the page.

Custom Search - This is something I will be working on for a very long time in trying to make things easier for my visitors. Hopefully, searching through the site and the internet for helpful information will be made a bit easier for my visitors. This will be a constant work in progress even after the new design is on line.

Other New Stuff - New pages and pictures will be added to TLTH Christian Connection. New graphics and pages will be added to Becky K's Graphics.

After seeing this list, I am sure the visitor can understand why this is taking so long to complete. I will work dilligently to get this completed as soon as possible so my visitors can begin to enjoy the new design and to take part in the new programs it will offer.

Thank you all for your patience.

More News on the Site Design and Reconstruction

2009-01-25T14:34:00.004-05:00

I wanted to let everyone know that the site redesign is progressing. I am sorry to report that it will take quite a long time to get it finished. My sites are not small ones. Especially TLTH Main Site and Becky K's Graphics will take some time to get finished because of all the pages.

I can promise the wait will be worth it because my visitors will find some new stuff available.

I have made some further decisions on how the new site will operate after the reconstruction is completed.

First.....I will be changing how news and updates will be handled. I have said I will starting a new forum after the reconstruction is completed. Well, it will be as a result of the reconstruction and will be operational within a couple weeks after the reconstruction is completed.

The forum will house the news and updated for all sites. My reasons for doing this is to make things easier for visitors and myself. With the new forum, it will be easier to offer a newsletter to all visitors who sign up to be members of the forum. It will allow a much better layout and will match much easier with new design. Updating the design of the forum will be far easier then this blog. A link to this blog will be added to a forum post to announce where update and news archives can be seen. This blog will exist for only the purpose of housing those news and updates posted until the forum is operational.

The forum will accessible through all my sites. It will also have categories of smaller forums which will pertain to each of my three sites. It will be easier to add more service to my visitors through the forum.

Second...There will be new pages added to Becky K's Graphics and TLTH Christian Connection.
New graphics will be added to the graphics site and more content and pictures will be added to the christian site.

I am sure my visitors will love the new design and layout once it is finished.

The time frame of when the sites will be up and running with the new design will depend on how long it takes to make the changes to all the pages of all three sites.

I have decided that they will not go on line, with the new design, until all are finished. Since all my sites run off one domain, I figured this would be the best.

I will work as fast as I am able. Once you, my visitors, sees the new design and how it functions, you will understand why it took so long to finish.

Thank you all for your support and patience.

Becky K, site owner

The Sites are being Redsigned and reconstructed.

2009-01-12T06:20:00.002-05:00

I hope 2009 has started very well for you, visitors and supports of TLTH.

I know I have not been working very diligently on my sites lately. I do apologize for this, but my health issues were quite intense for a while, and I was unable to function enough to take care of them properly.

This is all about to change, big time. I am back and feeling like it is time for a renewal. It is time to make the sites even better then ever and this is my goal in 2009.

First, the sites are going to get completely redesigned and reconstructed. This is to allow for easier navigation, easier loading of pages, more flexibility, and shorter pages without taking away any of the content.

This will be done with collapsing and expandable navigation bars, collapsing and expandable content, and more organization. Of course, the looks of the site will also improve. I am sure all my visitors and supporters can't wait to see how it will turn out. Guestbooks, TLTH Seal Listing, and this blog will also be redesigned to match the main site as much as I can. I may go for a neutral design here so it will fit all of them. Not really sure what I will do here.

Second, I am bringing back a forum, but it will have to meet my strict standards. This means I want a forum which I can customize without having to pay anything for the privilege. My finances won't permit any more expenses with the sites. I want to make sure it can be made to match the design of TLTH Main Site as much as possible.

Third, the newsletter will return, but not until after the items above are completed. My goal is to have it ready to go by the beginning of next year.

The time frame for these projects is uncertain. I will work as hard as I am able and will do my best to get the sites up in operations with the new design as soon as I can. TLTH will be the first and its redesigning has already begun. As soon as it is finished it will go on line with the new design, and I will announce it when it does. I will then move on the Becky K's Graphics.

I know there are probably some broken links around the sites, but I am waiting until I finish the designing when I can do it all at once. By then the link count will be more accurate as more may be broken by then.

Thank you all for continuing to support and visit my sites. You are the reason they survive and continue to grow.

Becky K, Site Owner

Update...(9/17/08)....Topsite Closed

2008-09-17T11:07:00.004-04:00

TLTH Topsite has been closed due to Illness. I am currently dealing with a ton of health problems and other issues. The main site, Becky K's Graphics, TLTH Christian Connection, and Becky K's Family site will continue to operate. Changes and updates may be a bit behind, but they will be operational.

Thank you for your support.

Updates 3/29/08

2008-03-29T22:46:00.004-04:00

There has been some general maintenance done on all sites. I have also been working on promotion for all sites, books, articles, and other writings.

You will notice that the widget containing my newest articles is listed above the post. I have done this to give everyone the opportunity to visit these articles if they should happen upon this blog before they visit any of my sites. I have also changed the posts to one per page to allow for pages to load easier. You may view past posting by visiting the archives.

Thank you to all who support my sites and all my other activities. You help to keep them growing.

Updates 3/23/08

2008-03-23T07:18:00.002-04:00

Modifications were made to TLTH Main Site; Becky K's Graphics; and Becky K's Family Corner.

There will be more changes made to many of my sites in the not too distant future. I am really not sure when I will get to it, but please be patient. I will get the changes and additions done.

I have been struggling with health issues for many months now. I am still dealing with them, but I am finally able to do some light work. Recently, I have been playing catch up with my writing. I must still pace myself and try not to take on too much work at a time. I am notorious for over doing it, and I must be careful not to allow myself to do this.

As soon as I am satisfied that my writing is at a stable place, I will begin working on my sites again.

Thank you to all my visitors for your continued support.

Becky K

Updates.....1/30/08

2008-01-30T05:56:00.000-05:00

Well, the new has begun and the first month of 2008 is almost behind us.

I have made some modification to all my sites.

Because of some health issues, I have closed TLTH Forums. I have left Webtown, but will continue to help in a limited capacity. This is for the benefit of my friends Diana and Felisa.

I must make things easier for myself and allow myself the time I need to take care of my health. My site will continue to run and many things will be added. Keep watching all of the because you never know what may end up there.

I am able to keep the sites going because I can do that more as my health allows. I am just unable to make any strong commitments which require regular scheduled activity.

I hope this will be a great year for all my visitors.

Thank you
Becky K.

Update......12/31/07 All Site

2007-12-31T03:55:00.000-05:00

All of my sites have undergone some adjustments. I have adjusted counters to consistent throughout all sites. Each are done in exactly the same manner, but record only the visitors to each particular site.

I have changed the website clocks on all sites. I have also changed the location of the date which the sites are updated. I wanted to make sure my visitors did not have to go on a hunt to find this information.

There have been other adjustments to links and codes.

Upcoming Changes

Pictures from Jordan's First Christmas are being posted on the Becky K's Family Corner as we speak.

Pop up windows for graphics are being installed on Becky K's Graphics. This is to make the graphics look nicer and to allow them to be accessed easily. This will keep page lengths down and allow for a nicer display. I am also adding some country graphics to the site. I am placing Webtown Awards and Gifts back on the site. These are going to be done using Dhtml scripts.

I am looking into adding more scripts to make the site look nicer and to make it more fun for my visitors.

It is always my goal to make my sites function and look better.

Have a great new year.

Becky K

Changes to TLTH Sites as of 12/10/07

2007-12-10T23:18:00.000-05:00

There have been many changes and additions to the TLTH Family of sites. They were done to again offer the best web site experience possible for all the visitors to my sites.

Changes and Additions

1.....Becky K's Awards Program has closed. You may find an explanation of this by clicking the preceding site title which was the link to the Awards Program. I did this because it would be impossible to notify everyone who has participated in the program directly. With all the activities I am involved in, there would be no way to complete such a task. I know that many links to the Awards Program are spread throughout the internet. This will allow all to know what is going on when they reach the site.

2....TLTH Forums is a new site which is a web community of love, compassion, support, fun, and friendship. I have created as a site which will offer visitors a wide range of subjects. My visitors are bound to find something they will be interested. You may just pop in to say hi and find out what I am up too.

3....TLTH Interactive has closed. I have not closed the site down completely the link is still floating in cyberspace, but all information which is important has been moved to TLTH Forums.

TLTH Christian Connection
A new page was added in the Bible Study sections of the site at TLTH Christian Connection's The Christian Voice.

Articles written and published at Associated Content are a part of TLTH, and represent things important to me and many of my visitors. These appear on the main page of the site in the RSS feeder.

Current articles published there to date are: (Listed here by most recent first.)

Upcoming Events and Changes
More articles are always being written at Associated Content. These items will continue to be part of TLTH even though they appear at another site. They are about things which my visitors care about. These articles are an effort of mine to continue my writing and to establish my career as a writer while also trying to offer more information to my visitors.

You may subscribe for free to my article list by clicking on the following link and clicking the subscribe button. http://www.associatedcontent.com/user/106891/becky_k.html

There will always be something written to help everyone understand what is happening in the world around us, and some will just be to add a little knowledge. I am sure my visitors will not be disappointed. My articles are written with the same honesty, integrity, and opinions which have been the foundation of TLTH since it began in 2000.

More Fun Stuff Ahead

This may not make major award givers very happy, but I doubt I will be applying for many awards in the future. This site is great, and I am just not willing to make any more changes to it's basic design. It is functional, and I am now going to make sure the focus is on my visitor.

I am going to add some fun stuff to Becky K's Graphics. I am going to enter this site into Webtown Site Competition just to have a little fun for a change. All work and no play makes Becky a Dull girl. My visitors will now be able to vote and see this site win awards and rise to top. TLTH will always manage to stay in the fore font of web sites. It's message must not be diminished. This is why I am choosing Becky K's Graphics as the fun site, while the main site continues to be about helping those who suffer and need support.

All my voters for Webtown and Merredin will be on the home page after you enter Becky K's Graphics, but I will be making pages to house the spirit page, and display the awards, gifts, and other things which come from Webtown. Felisha who is the mayor of Merredin is a good friend and I want to also show my support. I miss my friends at Webtown.

We who are part of the Internet and are web designers, understand how important friends and support are in what we do. I am going to build my base back up and have some fun for a change. While I work, I can still have some fun and let my visitors have more fun too.

Make sure when you see the Merredin voter on Becky K's Graphics that you show your support by voting. I will probably add Becky K's Graphics to Lil Dymuns Topsites.

Updates .....10/11/07

2007-10-11T05:08:00.000-04:00

I put the Top 50 Award Winning Web Sites voting button back on the site. This will be the only voting button on the site for now.

Update......9/21//07

2007-09-21T17:58:00.000-04:00

TLTH Main Site Update.........I worked on some code and changed the main graphics of the site. The site now uses an Ohio Sunrise as it's logo rather then the rose. It is picture taken from my own back porch.

I made adjustments to the About TLTH page and the Copyright Statement to reflect the changes in the design of the site.

Update....9/14/07

2007-09-14T21:06:00.000-04:00

Today has been a rather busy day. I have been busy perfecting code on the two sites already using the new design and giving out awards.

Both the TLTH Main Site and Becky K's Awards Program was checked for broken links. Bad links and code were fixed.

I also gave out 5 awards through Becky K's Awards Program. I gave out 2 Diamond Awards, 1 Silver Award, 1 Bronze Award, and 1 Merit Award. One of the Diamond Awards was an Upgrade Award.

At Becky K's Award Program the Status, Statisitics, WSR, and Winners page were all updated.

Updates.......9/13/07

2007-09-13T13:00:00.000-04:00

Well, it looks like I will meet the deadline I set for myself. Becky K's Awards Program is now loaded with the new design. I also made some adjustment to TLTH Main Site.

I had set the deadline of September 15th, and I have met it with 2 days to spare.

I hope my visitors will feel that it was worth the wait. I truly am sorry to have kept you all waiting for this new design for so long. It just seemed that one thing right after another kept causing delays.

At any rate we are progressing to get all the sites done.

Next I will do some double checking of the links on the two sights above which now have the new design.

Then, it is on to work on Becky K's Graphics and TLTH Christian Connection.

After those are done, I will get the Becky K's Family Corner Constructed and finished.

Once all of those things are done, I am taking a break for a while.

Those who do not run web sites could never begin to imagine the work we put into it. It is a lot of work, but I enjoy it.

With all the sites, pages, and services I offer, it take tons of time. I know this will be the last time I will be able to do such a drastic change to the sites. It is for this reason, I am trying to make sure it is done right.

Updates....9/11/07

2007-09-11T08:38:00.000-04:00

All Awards Received Pages have been modified. This includes Scroll bars and colors.

I have updated the About TLTH page of the main site.

Other changes made were to links and code.

I am currently working to finish the design changes to Becky K's Awards Program. I am hoping to have it completed by the end of the week.

Keep watching for the changes.

Becky K., Site Owner

Update....9/8/07

2007-09-08T04:33:00.000-04:00

Well, now I have finally gotten something accomplished with the new design. TLTH Main site is loaded onto the server. Keep in mind there are a few things which need to be fine tuned and these will be done as the rest of the pages are loaded for the other sites.

TLTH Memorial Clouds is going to be eliminated, but the cloud graphics will still be available upon request for any one want to remember a loved one on their site. This will be done through Becky K's Graphics. I had to eliminate stuff which was not getting much activity to keep the site flowing.

Items still needing to be completed with this new design are as follows:

* Awards display pages except for those displaying rated awards
* Becky K's Awards Program
* Becky K's Graphics
* TLTH Christian Connection
* Becky's Family Corner (This will be a new site which will display pictures of my Grandson, and tell the story of his arrival; share the planning and final ceremony for my son's upcoming marriage; and many other family stuff as it happens.)

I have placed TLTH Main Site onto the server so you all could have a preview of what all the sites will look like. Graphics will change a bit to fit the sites, but the basic design will remain the same. I am working very hard to get this project completed.

I am now writing for Associated Content, so I want to get this project done so I can devote more time to my writing career.

Please bear with me as I continues to make these sites something we all can enjoy.

My busy schedule will not permit me to do any more reconstructing of the site. Apart from regular checking and fixing of code, links, and updating information, adding pics, and updating the awards program; I will not be doing any major designing. It is for this reason that I want to make sure all of the sites are working properly, and this new design is done right.

Thank you all for support this site.

Becky K.

TLTH New Design about to Launch

2007-09-07T22:56:00.000-04:00

With in the next few days, I will be placing the newly designed TLTH Main site. It will give my visitors an idea of how all the sites will look. All sites will follow the same basic format with just some slight changes in design.

Keep in mind, the new designs of the other sites are not completed yet.

Thank you for your patience.

Becky K

I have been given a new position.

2007-09-04T19:04:00.000-04:00

Well everyone, things may become just bit crazy around here and there may be some delays. I have been granted a position of editorial writer for online content with a online company. It is a paid position. I will post a link where my articles can be found once I get more written and get a bit more organized.

Things will only be on delay until I get myself into an organized schedule. I will get the redesign done but it may October 1st befor Becky K's Awards Program gets redone. I should meet the Sept 15 date for the TLTH Main site.

Thanks for your patience.

Notice About Upcoming Design Changes to TLTH

2007-08-22T05:27:00.000-04:00

All my visitors will be happy to know that the new design of TLTH and all sites within the TLTH Family of Sites is progressing. I know it has been a long wait, and I am asking you to continue to be patient. I thought it would be nice for you all to know that I have resumed working on it.

Many things happen in our lives which delays our efforts at times. I have been able to continue to keep up with the Awards Program, but not much else lately. With the birth and rocky beginning of my Grandson, Jordan complicated by his long hospital stay; the death of my Mother-in-law; and my own health issues, I was beginning to wonder if I would ever be able to get back to it again.

I am working hard to get things completed. TLTH Main Site and Becky K's Awards Program will be the first sites completed, and I am hoping to have those completed no later then about September 10th.

Becky K's Graphics and TLTH Christian Connection should be done by the end of September if all goes well.

I am going to change TLTH Memorial Clouds. This site is going to be changed and moved to be included with Becky K's Graphics. I have not received enough requests for clouds to be placed on memorial pages. I will continue to make the graphics at the requests of visitors, but for their sites only. This will be done at Becky K's Graphics.

When we put these services together, we can only manage to keep them going if our visitors make use of them. I have limited space and must make sure it is available for services which visitors are using.

I am going to develop a family site where I celebrate the birth of my first grandchild, and the engagement of my son. So keep watching for this. This will not come about until after all my sites have been redesigned.

I am also looking at adding some other fun stuff.

I am working to make this design the final redesign of the sites. My health is not that good, and I am not sure I will be able to do this again. This is why I am taking my time and hoping to make it as good as possible so little more will need to be done to it. Ongoing maintenance and upkeep will continue, but no more major redesigns.

Thank you for your patience and support.

Becky K's Awards Program gave 4 new awards and upgraded a Gold to Diamond. The 4 new awards was a Diamond, a Gold, a Silver, and a Merit. Status, Stats, WSR, and winners pages were all update.

Note on the completion of design changes to the websites:

I had planned to start again working on the designing changes to the sites, but as my luck would have it, we had storms and other computer problems. I know this has been a long wait for my visitors. You all probably have given up on these changes ever happening.

I don't blame you a bit.

I will get it done. I have just had one problem after another since I decided to do it. Some times life just works that way. Keep watching. One day you just might get a surprise.

Updates.......7/23/07

2007-07-23T21:08:00.000-04:00

Becky K's Awards Program had two more winners; one Diamond and one Gold. Stats, Status, WSR, and winners pages were all updated.

I have gotten a new computer. The redesigning of my websites will be delayed while I try to get use to this new computer and Windows Vista. Bear with me, I am truly working on getting the design finished as soon as I can.

If you find any broken links, please email me at becky188@gmail.com. I may not catch them while I am working on this project.

You will find my updating sporadic except for the Awards Program. This is because I am spending my time working on the new pages. All links will be checked while I am designing the pages and will be double checked when the pages are completed.

I am taking my time on this redesign to make the sites all work better and look better.

Thank you for your patience.

In the course of the design, many other changes will be made including checking completely for bad links.

The BKA Index Received it first member today, May 27, 2007.

The pending changes to the design of my sites is still on going. I have not uploaded any of the new pages and I won't until I have the Main Site and Becky K's Awards Program pages done with the new design. The other sites will be uploaded as the are completed.

This is a process which takes a great deal of time. The birth and continued hospitalization of my grandson has slowed things down a bit. I will get it completed in the next few weeks. At least, this is my goal.

Things are Happening Slowly at TLTH

2007-05-11T16:37:00.000-04:00

Things are still operating at TLTH. They just may run a bit slow due to a death in the family and the recent birth of my Grandson. I am still getting things done, but a bit slower. Please, bear with me. I will inform anyone who is applying for awards or other services, of any delays this may cause. I still should make most deadlines.

The redesigning of the site is still happening, but will be set back a bit. I will keep striving to get everything caught up.

I will be designing a site specifically for my Grandson soon. I will also be adding a page to the main site dealing with the recent loss in our family. These will take some time to get completed. Jordan's new site will not be fully operational for some time, but you can see some pics of him by visiting the following link. Grandma's Little Miracle

Major Things Going on in My Life

2007-04-18T11:55:00.000-04:00

Well, first, I am a Grandma of a very tiny baby boy who was born Saturday, April 14, 2007, at around 9:30 P.M. He was born a little less then two months early, but is strong and doing well for his size. He only weight 2 lbs and 14 ounces. My daughter had a rough time and we almost lost her, but she is doing much better now.

My book, Chaos Was Her Bread and Calamity Was Her Water is about to be ready for sale. I will be putting a link on the site where this book can be purchased soon.

Things may get a bit behind with these other things going on, but I will still continue to keep up with everything as best I can.

Thank you all for your support.

Notes on Current Design Changes

2007-04-15T21:24:00.000-04:00

As I have said in the last update, I am making design changes to TLTH Sites. Beginning with the Main Site and Becky K's Awards Program, I am changing the the color of content backgrounds, changing banners to reflect the changes being made, and working to may the sites more symmetrical.

I am doing these changes to make the sites look nicer, and to make content easier to read. The sites will also look nicer at both screen resolutions, 800 x 600 pixels and 1024 x 768 pixels.

Once these design changes are completed, the design of these sites will not change from that point on. I have been trying to find a consistent design which can represent the sites and function properly. I have found it.

I may have to fix things from time to time and added pages or other items, but I will not make any drastic changes to the design.

Visitors will find content easier to read on the darker content backgrounds and I believe that all the sites will function a lot better.

The design changes should be completed within the next week or two.

Updates....4/7/07

2007-04-07T07:17:00.000-04:00

I have changed and adjust the background to all my sites. I think this one looks nicer and it tile better.

The Best of "Year" Annual Award and BKA Index are finished and operational. They are now a part of Becky K's Awards Program.

Coming up this next week, I will be making more adjustments to the design of the site. Funny, how we think we are done and then something else comes to our attention which need to be done. I am trying to make things look nice while trying focus on the content. Designing a site is one of the hardest parts of web construction.

Soon I hope to be able to take a break. I need to get the design working a bit better. The other things which I was hoping to get started by now will have to wait. I will finish the design stuff and then I am taking a break.

At any rate the sites are all updated and working properly.

Updates....4/4/07

2007-04-04T22:14:00.000-04:00

All sites have been updated with link changes, design, and code. The new Site Map has been completed, and it is linked through all the websites. This will make updating a bit easier for me. I think visitors will find it easy to use and will enjoy the new design.

TLTH received a Bronze Award from Timelines Awards Program. You may see this new award by visiting Rated Awards.

Becky K's Awards Program received a rating of Level 3 from wsaptronic. Visit the Ratings & Affiliations page of the site to see this new rating.

Since we are just about finished with the maintenance side of the expansion, I will soon be adding the BKA Index listing to the Awards Program.

Ones step at a time and things just get done. Keep watching for new stuff.

Updates....4/3/07

2007-04-03T05:11:00.000-04:00

Becky K's Graphics and TLTH Memorial Clouds have been moved to the other domain and had their HTML code modified. They are not linked through TLTH Main Site and Becky K's Awards Program yet, but they will be soon. This will be completed very soon.

All design modifications have been completed to all the sites.

I will be modifying the Intro to all sites and constructing a new Site Map real soon as well. I will then be adding the expansion programs to Becky K's Awards Program

Updates....4/1/07

2007-04-01T00:26:00.000-04:00

TLTH has been modified and some adjustments to code was completed to begin moving on the other three sites needing adjustments before we expand. Creation of the new programs will be happening sooner then I expected. Keep watching within the next week for the launching of a couple new items being added to Becky K's Award Program.

We have received a couple of upgraded awards. Fun Tyme Entertainment Awards upgraded our Merit Award to a Silver Award and Lagoon View Yacht ClubNautical Awards Program upgraded our Beautiful Site Award to a Gold Award. We also received a Friendship Award from Lagoon View Yacht ClubNautical Awards Program. Thanks to both of these great awards programs for their continued support and for honoring TLTH with these wonderful awards.

Visit Rated Awards to see them listed.

Updates....3/29/07

2007-03-29T03:05:00.000-04:00

One down and only 4 more to go. I have completed the fixing of code and design modification to Becky K's Awards Program in preparations for the upcoming expansion. Now I move on to the main site. Best to fix things and make them work a bit better before we expand. I will also be modifying the site map, but not until after the two other site's Becky K's Graphics and Memorial Clouds are moved.

Lots of work to do. It is a good thing I love what I do.

TLTH received one Rated Award upgrade, and another New Award. Tim's Spider Awards
upgraded us from Merit to Silver. BV.Lindenheuvel Award Program gave TLTH a Silver Award from their program. Visit the Rated Awards to see these awards.

Life around TLTH is very busy right now, but I am loving it. I will be glad when these latest modification and additions are done. It will be grand when it is done. I am on a quest to make TLTH as good as possible.

TLTH Prepares for Another Expansion

2007-03-27T17:10:00.000-04:00

Here we go again. Becky is at it again. The site is growing again. I know you haven't come up for air since the last expansion, but the need for new services has put me into motion again. The process of this expansion is in three phases.

First, to prepare for this I am doing some minor work on design, modifying some code, checking links, moving some sites and pages, and doing more grammar checks. Before expansion can be successful, we must make what is there look and work better.

Second, I have two domains and one just is not being utilized to its fullest potential. This is fixing to change. Becky K's Graphics and the TLTH Memorial Clouds Service is moving to the same domain that TLTH Christian Connection. This is too allow more space for the TLTH Main Site and Becky K's Awards Program growth.

Third, a new AP listing service will be added to Becky K's Awards Program; older link pages will return but in much better format to TLTH Main site and others sites as needed; and more help and support pages are to be added to TLTH Main Site.

New AP Lising Service

Soon a new Awards Program Listing Service will be added to Becky K's Awards Program. It will be unrated, but sites will have to meet some stringent criteria to be included in the listing. Meaning the Award Sites will have to meet the criteria of the Awards Program and will have to meet other criteria specific to Awards Program Exclusively. A new application will be added and all those included in the new listing will have a screen shot posted with the information on their Awards Program.

New Important Links Listing

I will be creating a new important links listing which will have links included which will help people who visit TLTH. I will try to include links on all topics covered throughout all TLTH Sites. This listing will take a long time to get up and running. I have a few other things to get going first as you may have noticed.

New Pages of Help and Support

I have a few ideas on some more help and support pages which will be added to TLTH. This is certainly not going to happen in the near future. The links pages will be constructed first. This would be a great time for visitors to have pages of interest to them added to the site. Final inclusion will be mine, but I will certainly welcome any ideas you have to add. If you know of some cause you wish was covered at TLTH, email information, links, and other details to becky188@gmail.com.

Keep watching for the changes, updates, and announcements. You never know what I may be up to next. I am always looking for ways to help our visitors and offer them a great experience at TLTH.

Updates....3/26/07

2007-03-26T11:27:00.000-04:00

I have been working to modify code and several aspects of all my sites. This will be an ongoing project for some time. My sites are going to look even nicer then they do now when I am finished. There may be some changes which will not be visible to the average visitor.

I have constructed the Awards Received pages to make them able to load in the same window of all the sites as part of each of them. Return to site links are available for navigation back to the site the visitor came from when reaching the Awards pages. You may go to any of the sites or the site map to visit these pages. Some sites have not had the links changed to load in the same window yet, but I am working to finish that soon.

I have added a new site to TLTH Topsite.

TLTH received an upgrade from Bronze to Silver from Csb 1912 + Awards Program. Visit the Rated Awards page to see this new award.

All the sites in the TLTH Family of sites are always in a mode of change to make things function properly and more efficiently.

TLTH is Nominated for a O.N.Z.C.D.A Award. You may see other nominations for awards which TLTH has recently received and view the lists of Rated Awards this site has received by visiting the Rated Awards Page of the site.

Updates....3/04/07

2007-03-04T17:24:00.000-05:00

All main operating sites, TLTH Main Site, Becky K's Awards Program, Becky K's Graphics, & TLTH Christian Connection were checked for proper navigation. It was determined that bottom navigation bars were more a hindrance then a help and were really not needed.

The bottom nav. bars were removed and links to Site Maps and home links were added throughout long pages which did not follow a sequence. This will make longer pages less troublesome. Visitors have more control over how much of the page they wish read at any give time.

At Becky K's Awards Program I took the Actual Evaluation From off the site because it was disrupting the HTML of the site. It became clear it was not needed on the site because the Self-Test covers all the items on the form. It made things too repetitive.

I added bonus points to help many gifted web designers acquire a few extra points to show my appreciation for their talents. These are only mentioned on the Scoring, Self-Test, and Award Graphics pages of the site. These bonus points are not part of the criteria of the awards program.

Updates....3/03/07

Gave out a Silver award through Becky K's Awards Program. See the new winner on the Silver Award Winners...2007 page of the Winners pages.

Updates....3/02/07

2007-03-02T02:41:00.000-05:00

The Main Site, Becky K's Awards, and TLTH Christian Connection had the Important Links removed from their navigation bars and site maps.

I will replace this some time, but will be doing so at a later date. All links which were compiled in the list of Important Links were lost and it will take some time to regain those lost. A new listing will appear, but it will take some time for it to happen.

TLTH is very busy right now with a whole lot of things happening, being updated, and some being changed. Time constraints will not allow me to secure the list quickly.

You can help me secure the listing by emailing me important links related to the topics on the Main Site or the other sites in the TLTH Family. You may email be at becky188@gmail.com.

Updates....3/01/07

2007-03-01T15:57:00.000-05:00

A rated award was upgraded to silver. You may see this on Rated Awards. The award is from Vie's Inn of Wonders' Awards.

I want everyone to know that Important links is being changed. Some links may be lost in this process, but I must get them off the unstable server they are on. The page will disappear and be replaced with a new one. Keep watching. If you have any links under any of the topics covered in this site, send them to me at becky188@gmail.com.

Updates....2/27/07

2007-02-27T08:05:00.000-05:00

Updated Rated Awards page of the site.

Changed the Rated Award to reflect the new chart created to list awards TLTH received from UWSAG and Award Sites Rated Sites.

The Reaching for The Stars Bronze award was upgraded to a Gold Award and was placed in the listing and changed on the display page.

I also moved some awards form the Rated Awards Page to the Independent Awards Page because there were some without ratings. I wonder what I was thinking when I placed them there. Oh well!!! At least it is corrected now.

Some Important Facts About Evaluating Sites

2007-02-25T19:27:00.000-05:00

Return to BKA - Evaluation & Judging

Those of us which evaluate sites for listings and Awards Programs understand like few others the many different obstacles web site owners face. Many times these obstacles don't even seem important to the web owner. I use my own site as an example in the points below for clarification.

Here are some facts to help everyone understand this process a bit better. These facts can help web owners and evaluators. I believe these are points which all who evaluate web sites should take into consideration. (As time goes on, this list of facts will probably grow.)

* Many things happen which are totally beyond a web owners control, and they may not even be aware of it. This is largely due to how a web hosting company handles various functions of a site.

Different web hosting companies handle things differently. When I evaluate a site for my Awards Program, I take certain factors into consideration. Although, I have a set standard to follow, there are many variables which often are only specific to a particular site. This is why I try to keep the criteria general. Experience has taught me too look beyond the obvious. It may seem tedious, but it is worth the effort and allows me to offer a greater degree fairness to my Award Program.

* Many times links may be running on the same domain, but may be actually external links. This happens often for people who run multiple sites.

I do this myself. I have three sites which operate on one domain. To keep things simple and organized for me to be able to add things to these sites, they all run on the main tlth.org domain now. The main links to these sites are external links.

My awards received are external links for all other sites but the main site because they run from that site. I do not apply for awards for my individual sites. I do this for TLTH as a whole.
My site operates a bit differently then many others, although I have many sites, they all are a part of TLTH. As stated on the About TLTH page of the Main Site, TLTH is more then a site, it is a whole lot more. It is a way of life and a fundamental concept of help and service to others.

* Not all sites are operated by groups of people. Many listings and awards sites are run by teams of people. Each has their own particular responsibility within the site.

I have an evaluator who double checks each site evaluated applying for an award from my Awards Program, but all other operations, creations, additions, and general maintenance of my site is done solely by me. My son helped in the re-designing of my site as far as putting me on the right track with the HTML coding, but once he gave me the push, the rest was up to me. I may seek advice from other sources, but the work is all done by me and me alone. Every word, graphic, page, line, etc. is put into place solely by me.

With a site this big, things are bound to be missed. Please, email me if you find mistakes at becky188@gmail.com.

* Just because I site did not qualify for an high award in rated award program, does not mean it is not a good site. The biggest misconception in the area of award programs is that to be good site you have to win the highest honors. All the higher honors may mean is that the site owner is probably well skilled in web design.

Look at your site and it's activity. If people frequent you site and are happy with it, then who cares how many gold and diamond awards you receive. The visitors are the most important people you have to please, and if they aren't complaining, then your site is doing a great service.

* If evaluators temper their evaluations with understanding, then everyone will be pleased with the outcome.

* Sites should to the best of their ability, be able to secure a top award in their own awards program. They should be held to the same standards they expect from others.

I spend anywhere from 6 to 12 hours a day on my site. I am always checking stuff and making sure things work. I realize not everyone can do this, but I always look to see how often sites are updated. This tells me how much effort a person is putting into their site. This applies to Award Sites I apply to, as well as all other sites I may evaluate.

* Web sites are a work in progress. They are never finished. We may have a site which is running, but a good one is always trying to offer something new and fresh. We can't have visitors getting bored.

Let's all work to help each other and to work together to make the Internet safe and productive.

News About Ratings and Listings

2007-02-25T19:01:00.000-05:00

We like free promotion for our websites. Especially, if we run an awards program, ratings and listings are important to the promotion of these programs. I have been blessed with dealing with some great listings and ratings services for Becky K's Awards Program. However, from time to time the visitors to my Awards Program or other sites may see that a listing may disappear.

There are many reasons for this happening. Some times it is as simple as the fact that the listing has closed or link no longer works. Other times it is because of a disagreement with the service which is not being resolved to my satisfaction or because the particular listing just no longer meets the needs of TLTH, or other programs.

We all try as hard as we can to be honest and fair. None of us are perfect. Removing a listing or service at my request happens at times, but it is in no way meant to reflect a negative opinion about the listing or rating service.

We all must find the services which best meets our needs. Those I use may not be the best for your particular program. Always evaluate the listings and ratings you choose to make sure they will adequately help your program and will always treat you fairly. Make sure you choose those which will work the best for your particular program or site.

All I ask from an award program I apply too or listing services I am a member of is that they hold their own sites and services to the same standards they expect from me and others. I try to the best of my ability to do this in my Awards Program. No one is perfect, and I am not expecting perfection.

Changed News Blog - 2/23/07

2007-02-23T14:41:00.000-05:00

It has become apparent that trying to keep things running smoothly at TLTH has become a full-time job. As the owner of TLTH and all the sub-sites, I never seem to have things running just as I would like them too.

This News and Updates Blog was set up to make doing updates for all sites easier and less troublesome. With a site as large as TLTH, organization and simplification become benchmarks for keeping things done and up to date.

In doing this, I think I have finally found a blog which will handle the needs of TLTH better then others have done in the past.

I have changed it over and made some changes which will keep in the same basic color scheme as the rest of the site.

Visitors may post to this blog and make any suggestions they may have for changes which would benefit TLTH or things they may wish to see added to TLTH.

Thank you all for your continued support.

Becky K, Owner

2007-02-23T04:37:00.000-05:00

This petition was created by Hope Cundiff for her granddaughter Madi. Let's all support the efforts of this great lady who has been fighting for justice for so long.Please read the following and sign the petition by clicking on the link at the bottom.

To: US CONGRESS, The U Judicial Committee and The Govenor of The State of Kentucky
We, The lawful citizens of. These United States of America, do hereby sign freely and without pressure by any individual, this petition to ask our US Congress, The US Judicial Committee and The Govenor of the State of Kentucky, along with other lawmakers whom this may pertain, to assist the Cundiff Family in their pursuit of justice in the death of Madison Ann Cundiff. This child died in May of 2004 in Lexington, Kentucky and Sarah Elizabeth Taylor was charged with Murder in the same year. It will now be three years in May 2007 without a trial, while the accused is allowed to remain free on a mere $50,000.00 cash bond. We ask that you as our Protectors, Lawmakers and as described by your job duties to hold office, that this death and the justice of, along with others, be investigated to bring closure to this family and others where the JUSTICE SYSTEM HAS GREATLY FAILED. It is definetly past time, that the lives of the victims and their families are as important, if not more, than the lives of the perpetrators.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned

Furture Additions to TLTH

2007-02-23T04:27:00.000-05:00

Things are every changing around Turmoil Leads to Hope. Many things I have promised still have not made their way to the site as of yet. I want my visitors to know that they are still going to happen.

My site is maintained solely by me alone. I had a little help when redesigning this site, and I do have another evaluator for the awards program to double check sites to avoid bias. All the continuing maintenance of all my site is done by me alone. When things get crazy, delays happen.

Additions to TLTH to expect soon.
* A writing site will be added as soon as the book "Chaos was Her Bread; Calamity was Her Water," is available. There are two other books which I am trying to get published as well, "Day by Day with Multiple Sclerosis" and "The Mystical Marble Valley (Not completed yet)." So as you can see I am quite busy.

You may find that things may become delayed as far as updates and other services may slow down a bit because of the work on "The Mystical Marble Valley." I will still work very hard to make sure all responses are done in a timely fashion.

* There will also be photo albums added to the site. I know, I have been promising this for a long time. It will take some time because I want to make them as nice as possible, while keeping the load time to minimum. This requires some work. You may not see this added until around Christmas time, but it will be happening.

Just keep in mind that this site is always growing and expanding. Keep visiting, because you never know what see next.
