Getting Started


 

 
Welcome First Time Visitors to Your TC Williams 1973 Class Website
If you haven't already registered it's easy as 1-2-3. Follow the steps below to begin your
journey back to the "Remember the Titans" days at TC.
1.      Find your name in the classmate list.
2.      Click on your name.
3.      Follow the instructions in the JOIN HERE wizard.
 In order to access password protected site  pages you must create your individual Profile by
simply clicking the Classmate Profiles link on the left hand column of the Home Page.
You will then see a list of classmate names.  Find your name and click on it. (If you are not a
member of the Class of "73, scroll to the bottom of the Classmate Profiles page where you
will find  Guest Members listed by year.)  Click the link at the bottom of the page to join the
site and 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, school memories, your family, and photos.
If your name is not on the Classmate Profiles list, click on Contact Us on the Home
Page to notify the Reunion Committee.
  After creating your Profile you can view fellow classmates' Profiles and interact with them
online.  You have the option of restricting access to your personal Profile by fellow classmates.
  After registering you also gain access to all the features and general information in the
Class of 1973 website. Be assured that all contact information you enter will be kept
confidential.
  It will not be shared or distributed with anyone or organization.  Your contact information
is private and your address and phone number can not be seen by classmates unless you
grant permission in your Profile.  When someone clicks on your name, the only contact
information they see is your city and state and whatever additional information you choose
to include in your Profile.
 Also, your email address is not visible. Email can be sent to you, by registered
classmates using the contact box at the bottom of your Profile page.  Also, if you send
messages to  fellow classmates through their Profile page, the classmates will not be
provided your e-mail address.  They must login to the website to read and respond to your
message.
 In order to continue receiving e-mail from our website please white-list the following email address:postmaster@classcreator.net to insure you recieve emails generated
through the web site.  "White-list" is the general term for allowing an email to be
"delivered" from a specific email address every time regardless of the content contained
within the email. White-list is also sometimes referred to as a "Safe List" or an "Approved
Senders List."
 TC Williams Class of 1973 and Class Creator do not send spam mail of any kind.

FAQs
This is my first visit to the website.  How do I login?
Please click on Classmate Profiles in the left hand column of the Home Page, then click on
YOUR NAME to set up a FREE member account.  Provide your work or home e-mail address,
select a password (which you can change at any time), and tell us about your life since our

I forgot my login information and/or password.  What should I do?
You login with the e-mail address you provided during your member account set up
(include domain name, such as @hotmail.com).  If you have several e-mail addresses and
cannot remember which one you used or if you no longer have access to the e-mail address,
click on "Contact Us" and provide your new e-mail address.  Your website administrator will
make the change and then e-mail you a temporary password.  Once you've logged in using
your new e-mail address and temporary password, change your password by clicking the
"Change Your Password" link under the Member Functions menu on the home page.
If you remember your e-mail address but you forgot your password, click on the "Forgot
password?" link right above the green "Log On" button, and the website will automatically
e-mail your password to you within a few minutes.
 
Who has access to my "Classmate Profile" and personal contact information?
You can choose whether your "Classmate Profile" is publicly viewable on the website. You
can also choose whether or not your mailing address and phone number are displayed;
otherwise, only the City and State/Country where you live will be listed.  Click on the

the bottom of his/her profile page, click on the box that says "Notify me whenever
[Classmate's] profile is updated", and click on the "Notify Me" button.  You will be notified
by e-mail.  You can also subscribe to multiple classmates by using the "Profile
Subscriptions" link.
 
Does the public or other Classmates have access to my e-mail address?

Center under the Member Functions menu in the side column.

Photos" under the Member Functions menu on the left.  There is no limit on the number of
digital photos that you can store on your "Classmate Profile" page.  Each photo is
automatically resized to fit on your Profile page.  You can also upload your own videos that
you've posted to YouTube.com by clicking on the "Classmate Profiles" link, then following
the instructions.  You can add, delete, or replace your own photos or videos at any time.
 
How does the "Message Forum" work?

prior message or start your own topic of conversation by asking a question, re-living an old
memory, or share your thoughts on life. Please use good judgment when posting information.
 
Does Class Creator or TC Williams Class of 1973 Reunion Committee rent, sell, or in
any way profit from having our Classmates' names, addresses, and personal
information?
No.  We do not rent or sell any Classmate information or engage in any marketing or
solicitation to Classmates.  All personal contact information is held strictly confidential.
Class Creator does not sell advertising on the website or display banner ads or pop-up
windows.  Our website is owned and controlled by the Reunion Committee--not by Class
Creator.
 
What is the purpose of this website?
The web site was created primarily for the purpose of connecting with classmates and to
inform them about our upcoming 40th reunion.  Since the site provides many different
features for helping classmates communicate and stay in touch with one another, feedback
from our classmates in the months ahead will help determine about continuing the site
after the 40th reunion.
 
Can I join the site even if I don't plan attend the reunion?
Yes.  Even if you do not plan to attend the reunion there likely will be old friends who do
join the site that you can reconnect with.
