I will see what can be done about styling for phones. and @Rob...well I wouldn't call these stories as much as just "announcements" I guess, so they are somewhat different than our blogs. Maybe we do have a bit more redundancy than we need however. I would think anything that was sent out via the announcements mail list should perhaps be entered in the "News" as well. Just my .02. I will work more on styling this week. I may actually put ALL the old news items back in -- it doesn't hurt anything and maybe folks would just like them as some historical reference. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MzK "No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted." -- Aesop
