First Time Visitors

If you are new to the website please read this page as it will answer questions on how to get a password, make a profile and how to use the website.

This website was created at www.classcreator.com website and is maintained by the Aurora High School Class of 1964 Reunion Committee. It is completely free to our classmates. You will never be asked to pay to make a profile or to be able to access other alumni profiles.

You have the option of restricting your personal Profile to only fellow Classmates, which blocks the general public and search engines from accessing your Profile details. Once you create a Profile, you will also be able to see all Profiles of your fellow classmates and interact with them.

All contact information that you enter into this website will be kept confidential. It will not be shared or distributed. Your contact information is private: your address and phone number can't be seen by the classmates unless you grant permission on your profile. When someone clicks on your name, all they will see of your contact information is your city and state and whatever information about yourself you choose to put on your web page. Your email address is not viewable, though an email can be sent to you using the contact box at the bottom of your web page. However, if you send a message to someone through their profile, they will see your email address so that they can respond.

If you have not already done so, you will need to create your individual Profile in order to access any password protected pages on this site.

Start by clicking on the Classmate Profiles link in the menu on the left side. This will take you to a page with all your classmate names, including yours. Find your name and click on it. Follow the prompts to create your profile. The password that you enter during this process will be used as your login password. You can personalize your page with information such as what have you been up to since graduation in '64, school memories, your family, and photos.

If you click "Remember Me" when you log in, you will not need to log in next time you go to the site. Note there is a password retrieval feature to click on: "Forgot Password?" in case you need to log in sometime and can't remember your password; the password will be sent to you email inbox. You can login from computers other than your home computer but you will need to enter your password.

If you can not find your name on the Classmate Profiles page, please contact us to have your name added. Use the Contact Us link.

If you change your email address, snail mail address, or phone number, please update those in your Profile so we have your correct information at all times.

Always check back with the Home page, where main information and announcements are made.

Most of all, enjoy and have fun with the website!

More Instructions:

How to upload pictures to your web page:

Be sure you are logged in on the home page. In the links on the left side under MEMBER FUNCTIONS, click on the link: Edit/Upload Photos.
The Photo page will appear and you’ll see a gray box titled: Upload New photo. Click on this box and you will be at the Add Photo page.
The Add Photo page gives basic instructions for uploading your photos. There are 3 places on this page to make entries.
Sort: The sort number controls the order in which photos display on your page. By default your pictures will appear in the order you entered them, so this isn’t important for your first picture. But later if you want picture #5 to appear as #1, you will have to change the sort numbers on your pictures. If you delete a picture, the sort numbers for the remaining pictures do not change (e.g., if you delete picture #2 out of 4 pictures, you will show pictures #1, 3, and 4.)
Caption: Caption is the description you write for your picture.
Browse: This is the most important one, for this is how you find the picture on your computer and get it to appear on your page.
Your first picture will automatically be Sort Number 1.
Now click the Browse button. A list of folders on your computer will show up. Locate the folder that holds your picture. For most classmates this will be the My Pictures folder located in the My Documents folder. When you have clicked through to your picture file, click the view button at the top to show icons as pictures. This makes it easier to find the specific picture you want to upload.
Select the picture you want to upload by clicking on it once, and then click Open at the bottom of the box.
Now you will be taken back to the Add Photo page and in the Upload Photo box you will see the path to your picture.
Enter the Caption for your picture in the box.
Click the SAVE CHANGES button.

Now go to your Profile page and look for your picture and caption.

Shortcut for multiple pictures: If you are uploading several pictures that are in different folders, you can copy them to your desktop, then delete them later. Make sure you COPY, not move, your pictures, so you won’t delete the original.

If you are still having problems, please contact us.

Notes about Spam Filtering:

In today's world so many spam emails are sent daily that many people and/or email service providers have resorted to very high level spam filtering. This unfortunately means that sometimes messages sent from your web site to your Classmates, and even messages from one Classmate to another, can be treated as spam and never get into you mail inbox. To prevent this from happening, You should "whitelist" the email address postmaster@classcreator.net. Note, "whitelist" is the general term for allowing an email to come through from a specific email address every time, regardless of the content contained within the email. Whitelist is also sometimes referred to as a "Safe List" or an "Approved Senders" list. In Summary, to ensure you get email from your class website, do the following:

Add the class website email address (postmaster@classcreator.net) to your address book, contacts, email filters or safe list. By adding this email address, you are notifying your Internet Service Provider (ISP) that we are a known contact with mail you wish to receive and ensuring that the mail does not end up in your SPAM folder. If you need assistance with this, please contact your ISP.

The Class Creator system does not send spam mail of any kind to you or your Classmates. Thus you can whitelist postmaster@classcreator.net with confidence that spam email will never be sent from our address.
