This website was a project entirely written and assembled by the students
of Morehead State University. Current design, editing, buttons, additional
original material, and HTML coding is by George N. Sharik. Design and coding
was kept simple so that these pages could be accessed by the widest number
of web browsers. We would like to thank Professor Timothy C. Pitts
for his instruction and envisionment of this website as well as the
Geography Department
of Morehead State University for making this project possible.
This website was originally the result of the first offering of the
Geography of Religion as a special class at Morehead State University in the
spring semester of 1996. Now, in the spring of 1999, the editor is happy
to present the contributions of yet another class of students. Their
contributions are noted along with the original contributors to this website.
New and updated links are the responsibility of the current webmaster. The
new "mirror" of this website (2005) has been made possible with cooperation
of the original creator, George N. Sharik.
Credits for multimedia and supplemental materials will be found in
the References section for each webpage. HTML coding
and additional materials were made possible through Paul McFedries'
The Complete Idiot's Guide to Creating an HTML Web Page (1996).
This is a user friendly how-to book which came with a CD-ROM containing a
number of different shareware programs and free graphics, some of
which were used in creating this website. The current version (1998)
of the pages on this website were created almost entirely with MS
Notepad text editor. Buttons were designed and created in
Microsoft's Paint.
