Hi All,
(I apologize to those of you who will receive multiple copies of this
e-mail)
I have made some significant changes to the NASG web site to warrant
this message. The changes are predominantly structural, but there is
some new content.
The fundamental change is the addition of four new main pages. The "News
& Events" page has been split up into two separate pages. The Historical
S Products section of the "Manufacturers" page has now been moved to the
new "Products" page. A brand new page, "F.A.Q." (for Frequently Asked
Questions), has been added with just a couple of questions (more Q&A
entries are welcome, if you can provide them to me). Finally, another
new page, "Site", provides information about the web site itself (and
contains the list of recent changes to the site, which used to be on the
"News & Events" page).
Because of these additional pages, the home page has been changed to
include the additional buttons. I added title/tool-tips to the home page
buttons. You can hover your cursor over the button and see a small
window displayed that indicates what is covered on that page.
Another new feature we've added to the site is the "Featured S Video",
which is only accessible from the home page. This page shows a recent
good-quality video highlighting an S layout. Our first video is the one
recently made available of Bob Jackson's layout. I hope to change the
featured video every month or so.
As far as content changes, the new "News" page now only lists the recent
product announcements. I have changed the organization of those
announcements to be in chronological order, with the latest info at the
top. This should make it easy for you to find out what's new if you
visit the site on a regular basis. One note on that: if an entry is
updated, it will be moved to the top of the list. I've added a "status"
text next to it to indicate if the entry is brand new or if it was one
that existed on the page before but has been updated.
These changes lay the ground work for additional content changes that
I'll be making over the next few weeks.
Enjoy,
- Peter.
