Well, I just created the graphics using Photoshop, then exported the HTML code and cleaned it up a bit. You could use a program like Dreamweaver to help you program the page, then copy the source code into the Static FBML application on Facebook.

On a side note, I just finished the custom page for faithHighway as well. You can see that one here (although converting the programming to div's instead of tables because the way it renders is a tad goofy): www.facebook.com/faithHighway?v=app_4949752878

Hi Pat- The first question I would ask is what system are you using? Google calendar? faithHighway? EventU?

Eric- I am a PC guy (mostly due to financial reason). My uncle got me a killer computer for my high school graduation that I was able to build a video editing suite onto during school (I majored in radio/tv communication). I think for most people, Adobe Premiere & After Effects on a good quality PC work just fine. If you are trying to get your Indy Production into Sundance, they you should probably get Final Cut Pro and a Mac. ;)

John- that's exactly what I'm talking about. Doesn't need to be fancy, just get the job done. I think I'd start wanting to pull my hair out using a 6 year old computer, but I understand computers can be an investment. Luckily, in this day and age, you can score a decent PC new for a few hundred dollars that would probably blow the current machine out of the water. But then again, if it ain't broke, don't fix it! :)

Right on. That's a great idea! Something you didn't put in your comment I was curious- do you have Mac or PC machines since you are both working with media? I know it's a sin to use a PC to do design right? I mean, I don't even know why they make Photoshop outside of the Mac environment! :)

Eric- One big thing we found when creating our mobile sites was to include this code: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007-07-12/make-web...
This will auto format it on a lot of devices for you with ease! Good luck!

I read this a while ago on Wikipedia about Pokes. I thought it was good info:
The poke feature is intended to be a "nudge" to attract the attention of another user. Whether poking someone is inappropriate is pretty much impossible to know. Many facebook users use this feature to attract attention or say "hello" to their friends.[16] A previous version of Facebook's FAQ gave additional insight into the origin of the feature, stating: "When we created the poke, we thought it would be cool to have a feature without any specific purpose. People interpret the poke in many different ways, and we encourage you to come up with your own meanings."

There are several applications on Facebook which extend the idea of the poke feature by allowing users to perform other actions to their friends (such as "kick" or "wave to"). People often reciprocate pokes back and forth until one side gives up, an event known as a "Poke War"

Thanks for commenting Eric! Yeah, I know, I know... But $20 is $20, right? I may eventually get around to it, it's just a long line on a list of things to do. If I can make do with this mic though, it gives me time to keep my hands in other little projects like helping develop mobile sites for our customers and a couple other neat projects in the pipeline soon to be released! I will take it under advisement and let the "big guy" know they should buy me better recording equipment! :)

That's a great question Justin. And as an answer, I would say it's not really clear. There's not much on the homepage by the way of content that would be very meaningful to Google. But your question got me thinking....

What if this design, as is, had great, meaningful content... for Google... not the end user. Does that really matter? Maybe it's philosophical, but it's kinda like a tree falling in the woods... Just because Google thinks your site is great in the rankings, does that mean it's going to be effective to bring people to your church or communicate the information to your members effectively? Hmmmm, I smell a blog post coming....
