Hey Mark -
I responded to you over the GAVA blog re awards .. thought you may not see it there -
hope all is well ... we are hanging in there ... PoolDraw users are getting into gear - salespeople on the move asking their new bosses to buy their favourite software!! YAY !
comment = I'm on the fence with the industry award comment Mark - obviously there are many types of pool designers - those that work independently for a client and then those that work for the pool builder often doubling as the salesperson! Building a pool is a collaborative effort managed by the builder but not possible - at the award level - without engineering consultation, high-end skilled crafts people and add-on products - the combination of which is ultimately determined by the pool builder who is also then responsible for the sucessful product. I went to look at the GAVA award site to determine entry criteia but did not want to register there but a recent email announcement from PSN re Master's of Design indicates that submissions can be from builders, designers, architects etc so in that case, if the designer entered the pool with the permission of the home owner then they should rightly be the award recipient.
Hi Mark, thanks for joining the Emotron group! Feel free to join in our discussions and share any information you think would be valuable to other group members. Look forward to seeing you in the group.
Thanks Mark - There is alot going on right now so I probably won't be using this alot right away - just give me a few weeks to get settled in. I talked to Gerrard last night and he answered some questions for me. But when I got back into the program I came up with more questions. I will probably be calling again by the end of the week. One problem we had yesterday was that one of the designers computers crashed - Can I load the program onto another laptop using the same procedure?
You stated that you had numerous pool shape templates and i was wondering if you are willing to share them.
I have several and lots ot times start with them and then edit them to meet the jobs site conditions.
You never have enough templates and sometimes another persons ideas on shapes are very helpful.
I am in Tennessee and am not a competitor and would be willing to trade ideas.
