Every pool gets it's own Personal Page. For example, the personal page for "Andy's Superbowl Squares Pool" might be andys.htm The only restriction is no spaces, and no special characters (except underscores). Put the page name only in here. On the internet, your page will be under our domain, for example, http://www.squarespool.com/andys.htm. So don't try to put in "http" or anything like that. Again, in the above example, it would be just "andys.htm":

Personal Page Name:

Price per square:   Payout for Quarter 1:   Payout for Quarter 2:   Payout for Quarter 3:   Payout for Quarter 4:

How many numbers:

First team name (left side):   Second team name (across top):
