Hello All and Happy last
day of February 2000 to you! Today I have been working to get all the new
updates in order to present later in the week. I do have some new items
for you toda. Firstly I've added pics
of Charlotte on "Donnie and Marie" in the US. They are absolutely
great! A special thanks to Chuck and Steve for these. I also fixed some
lingering problems with my "Just Wave Hello" article so now the little
Java applet should work check it out here.
I also would like to announce a new initiative here at Charlottechurch.net
the creation of the Charlotte Church .net Affilate Network. In the coming
weeks you will begin to see this logo:
My goal is to have every Charlotte Church fan site out there carry the logo
since it will ultimately drive traffic to all of our sites. I will be sending
information to all the Charlotte Church web site owners in the coming days to
explain this program in depth. Overall this should be a real positive for all of
us because we will be able to share our content in a more efficient
fashion. I'm also going to make a real effort to get the Poll system
working either tonight or tomrrow so we can have a little more interaction
here. Finally I still encourage all of you to join
the forums as they are the primary source of interaction here at the site.
Before I go I would like to wish Simon of Team England good luck on his
operation today. All our prayers are with him and his family and we hope he
recovers as soon as possible. That's about it for now please keep coming back
this week as plenty of more updates are on their way. Best Wishes. -

Hello Friends, its early
Monday morning here but I have a small update to begin a week that will see many
new updates and announcements. Today I've updated the news
and media events section as well as added a new
story to the news archives. I'll be keeping
the media photo of the week as well as
the weekly feature of the week the same
until mid-week so everyone will have been able to seen them. I'll also keep the
Happy Birthday message up until mid-week so if Charlotte happens to drop in
she'll be able to see it:) Like I said before this is just the beginning of what
I hope is an exciting week. Please stay tuned for all the latest news and
events right here at Charlottechurch.net. Until then have a great day and
I'll see you all tomorrow -

Hello fellow Charlotte
fans! I'm pleased to announce that the site has fully been converted and 98 % of
the problems you have been experiencing have been fixed. I had to make over 4500
adjustments and changes so that everything works and is uniform but its worth it
to make the site look much better than it originally did. Some of the photos are
still not working in the photos section and I'll try to get that straightened
out later tonight and tomorrow when I'm at school. I cant even begin to tell you
about all the I have for you all this week but trust me it will be the busiest
week for updates I've ever had since the old site. Hopefully Charlotte is
back home now after an epic promotional tour. I sincerely hope she is taking a
rest and having a little fun. I have some work I have to catch up with from
school today so look for me tonight if I have anything else to add. Other than
that everything should be working much better but please if you come across
anything tell me. Also like I have said before please join the forums so we can
have some interesting discussions there. I'll see you all later tonight or
tomorrow, until then peace be with you. -

Bonjour Charlotte Fans,
well after 7 hours of work late Friday night I can safely say that the site is
90% updated and the only section that shouldn't be fully working is the pics
section. I'll be fixing that up this afternoon so that my European viewers
can see the site at 100 % for the first time.
The week ahead promises to
be really busy and exciting here as I'll be bringing you several cool updates.
Firstly I have a couple of new stories to add to the news archives as well as
some new pics of Charlotte on "Donny and Marie". I'll also be having
an article on Charlotte's appearance in Australia written by one of our agents
down under. Speaking of agents I'll be announcing some new additions to the
staff. Greg, our programmer, has completed a poll script so we should have an
interactive poll soon as well as an automatically rotating pic of the day.
I encourage you to tell me if you have any problems with the site and to join
the forums so that the discussion becomes a little more lively. We also should
be listed on Yahoo by next week so I'm expecting plenty of more visitors. Until
then thanks for visiting and peace be with you. -

Hello again my friends, I'm
still continuing to work as fast as I can to get the site 100% functional. I
haven't uploaded anything new today because I was gone for most of it at a
school related event. I did however fix the news page so at least it
works.
The big buzz in the
Charlotte world is about her visit to Australia. I have several contacts in Oz
so I hope to have complete coverage of what she has been doing in the land down
under. Also apparently Charlotte will be on "Donny and Marie" today so
please have your VCR's rolling, look for some pics on here as soon as I can get
them.
In other news I will have a
couple new Charlotte Agents joining the team soon so the growth continues. I'm
really looking forward to how good this site can become once it works
perfectly. Once that happens it will be a full commitment to providing the
latest and most interesting content available until then the infrastructure must
be completed and that's what's happening right now. I just wish Sony could
provide some cooperation and then we could really have something special but I'm
afraid we'll have to wait for that. That's it from here, I'll keep you updated
on Charlotte's Australian tour tomorrow. -

Hello Everybody, today I'm
working feverishly to fix all the bug problems that you have reported. I
apologize for there being so many but please remember that this site is about 10
times as complex as the old one and there are over 100 pages to keep track of. I
expect that the site should be running at full operating specifications on late
Friday night or early Saturday morning. I did get a chance to fix some
complete sections so check them out. Here is a brief list of what works:
Guestbook: Guestbook is now
working correctly but unfortunately if you signed it before it will not show up
so please sign it again. About section, Downloads section, Features sections
,Community Sections and page 1 of the Bio section. I have also fixed a couple of
link problems on the index page. All of the other pages should be considered
experimental in nature until Friday. I excuse the absence of the current news
page. It is complete but it seemed to never make it to the server so I excuse
that. I will try to get it fully updated with all of Charlotte's news
tomorrow.
Two items have been in the
news regarding Charlotte during the past few days. Firstly her former manager
John Shalit has formally filed a lawsuit alleging a breach of contract. I will
have a full story in the news section on this so you can read it all hopefully
by tomorrow. Secondly Charlotte's second album has gone platinum here in
the U.S. that's two in a row for Charlotte! I'm so happy for her for this
achievement and I'm sure there are millions awaiting the next album.
Well friends that's about
it for today. I can't wait till I can actually start to update things but that
will begin next week once everything on the site is running properly. I still
want everyone of you to join the Forums so that we can discuss issues there so
here's the link again to the Forum. /ubb/cgi/ultimate.cgi
I hope to see you there soon. Thanks for your visit, -

Hello Friends, thank you so
much for your comments about the page. There have been a couple of glitches on
the site that have been brought to my attention. Firstly, the wallpaper link
didn't work. Unfortunately this is a big problem since that link has to be
changed on every single page so to fix this will take about a day and a half
since there are over 100 pages to fix. Also there were several alignment
problems. This was also an error that needs to be fixed on each page. I'm also
going to add a video's download section as well as fix up some of the inconsistencies
with the pages. All of this will be completed by the end of the week at
earliest. I'm going to try and update one section each night so that this will
be possible. I am also in a complete fog of e-mail so give me at least 2 days to
get back to you if you e-mailed me something. It's unfortunate that Charlotte's
birthday had to be clouded by this announcement of a lawsuit but I guess there
is no way around this. I really encourage all of you to join the forums on
charlottechurch.net so that you can participate in the upcoming discussions
that we will have there. You can do this by going to /ubb/cgi/ultimate.cgi
. Other than those glitches that I mentioned so far everything seems to be ok. I
hope all of you webmasters out there that have Charlotte pages realize that I'm
planning to make Charlottechurch.net a place where you can announce and
promote your pages. I will give you the details on this in my next update but
for now please remember that I'm looking to advance the community here not just
make a really fancy looking page for myself. I wish all of you the happiest of
days this week and I hope to speak with you all again later on this week. I'll
try and get to all of your e-mails as soon as possible. Until then Peace be with
you, - Mark

Hello and welcome
to www.charlottechurch.net!
This site is the realization of a dream that started with
charlottechurch.iwarp.com. That dream was to create a site where Charlotte
Church fans from around the world could go to find the latest news, meet others
and discuss the talent and grace that make Charlotte so special. What you see
before you is the result of over two months of work and preparations made by
people from around the world. This site is created specificly for you, the
Charlotte Church fan. I hope you will find it a useful and enjoyable site to
visit time and time again. In the coming months we hope to bring you a depth of
content that simply can't be found anywhere else. Photos, Interviews, Stories
they'll all be here waiting for you to enjoy. Over the next couple of weeks we
will be highlighting the many features and sections at CharlotteChurch.net
so that you will be able to enjoy them as much as possible. Of course I can't
overlook those individuals that have made this site both possible and rewarding.
I have to give special thanks to
three who have truly made an incredible
difference: Steve, Jason, and last but not least Adam. Without a
doubt these four have shown such dedication and devotion to making this site
possible and without their help I can't imagine the site being anywhere near to
what it is today. The highest thanks belongs to my friend and producer, Joe. If
it wasn't for Joe's willingness to invest in a 17 year old with just a small
Charlotte Church web page on a free server none of this would of ever
happened. Joe has funded this project completely as well as provided me
with the insight and encouragement to make it happen. I cant also forget our
Charlotte Agents who will help gather information and news from around the
world. You can see the entire list of those who made the world's largest
Charlotte Church site possible here. I hope
that Charlottechurch.net will be a place you will visit daily and I can
assure you that the staff here will try their hardest to ensure that its worth
your visit. Finally I have to say a few words about the person who this site is
about and that of course is Charlotte. Charlotte, is someone which words fail
miserably to describe she posses such a combination of inner and outer beauty
that its quite hard not to be in awe every time you see her. As Charlotte
celebrates her 14th birthday today, I pray and wish that we will see much more
of her in the coming months and years and hopefully if this site is able to
introduce her to more people than it will have served its purpose well. Happy
Birthday Charlotte, May all your dreams come true. - Mark
