Thanks, Sally.
I wound up ordering Susan Fowler's book, The GUI Style Guide, from the
publisher since I couldn't find any GUI books in this town (there must be
lots of GUI design going on here). After ordering the book, I discovered
a new computer bookstore called ProTech. I believe they did have a copy
of your book.
We will be developing our web site sometime toward the end of the year
and I will definitely look for the new revision of your book at that
time. Thanks for your assistance and good luck with your book. Stacey
P.S. I'm all for self-promotion. Keep up the good work!

Stacey,
This is somewhat self-promoting, but I co-authored a book on Enterprise
-wide GUI Design with Susan Weinschenk. It is published by Wiley & Son.
You can buy it with a CD that contains all the files necessary to make
it an online help or printed document, along with the rights to modify
the files as needed for your project. It gives OS/2 examples as well as
Motif and Windows.
We are currently working on a revision, which will include style guide
points for web sites, but this probably won't be out until the end of
the year. I don't know Wiley's release date.
