[Moodle] Changing the "Look" of Moodle

Sun Apr 30 20:11:18 EST 2006

How totally diappointing for you Ros!
Have you checked out the cost of using VITTA's openlab?
They support me for the VITTA 3in6 video competition, so I do not know
the cost, but I have Moodle there now and so far so good.
All it will cost is a few dollars (easy to say I know, but...) and your
school would be able to Moodle away to your hearts content. You might
even get administrator status and so be able to set things up the way
you want to. Just a thought, anyway.
Regards, Keith
