If you are registered for the event, you can customize your own personal page with "point and click" artwork, YouTube video, and photos before spreading the word to your friends and family. You have the option to choose from a library of images provided by the organization or to upload a personal image or link to a video from your own computer. The web page message and image caption are also customizable to provide a personal touch and to help motivate your online visitors. Lastly, you can choose from a variety of backgrounds/themes to spice up your Web page. Team captains also have the ability to customize their team page with a photo, YouTube video, and text.
