MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

Return to New Membership Application Page

Note: The Date entry in this form is mainly for the printed application form to be sent with your payment by post office mail. For Credit Card applications, today's date will be used as your application date. Entries with an asterisk (*) are required.

We have added boxes for your secondary address information (for those of you who have two residences and stay in each during different periods of the year). This information is not required for your membership application.  If you want PPIO to have the information, you should complete the secondary address information boxes on this form.

Membership in Porcelain Painters International Online (PPIO) is $32.00 per year.

Shortly after your membership application is received, a membership card and badge will be mailed to you.

Payment by Credit Card:
If you select payment by credit card, then when you click the submit button, your application information will be stored in a temporary member file and you will be taken to the Authorize Net secure transactions page to enter your credit card information. If the transaction is completed successfully, your name and information will be stored in the permanent PPIO Members database and your new membership number will be displayed to you.

SPECIAL NOTE: With most browsers, when you go from an unsecure site to a secure site, a message is displayed warning you that you are going to a secure site and that information you give will not be visible to anyone else on the web. Likewise, when you go from a secure site to an unsecure site, a message is displayed warning you that you are going to an unsecure site and that any information you give will be visible to anyone else on the web.

If your browser setting is setup to do this, you will see the message about going to a secure site when you click the "Continue with Secure Transaction" button after you submit your application information. And, later after your credit card information has been submitted and you click the "Continue" button on the page which displays your receipt, you will see the message about going to an unsecure site. You may be tempted to say "No" in response to the request whether you want to continue when you see the message about others seeing any information you give on the web. But, if you do this, the program on PPIO which stores your information permanently into the PPIO member database and displays your username and password will not run. This means that your PPIO membership record will not be complete. Although, your payment was made (the credit card transaction went through), we will have to add your membership information manually.

You do not need to be concerned about your information being seen by anyone on the web because, by the time you click the "Continue" button, your credit card transaction has completed and there is no other secure information pending for others to see.

If you continue on after your transaction has completed, you will be given a temporary Username and Password. These will be displayed when your membership application has completed successfully. You may change these later on.

If you do not enter an email address, or if your temporary username and password do not display at the end of your application process, then you will need to write to Marci Blattenberger for your temporary Username and Password. If you have an email address, you may be able to get your username and password by going to the Porcelain Painters International Online (PPIO) web site at http://www.porcelainpainters.com, and clicking on the link (by the "Members Logon" link) to have your username and password emailed to you.

Marci's email address is marci@ppio .com. If you are not able to email Marci, you may send her a request by postal mail at:

Hendersonville, TN 37075
