Hi All,

I have just about finished with the creation and testing of the new pages for our NPN Regional site.

Beginning tomorrow, Sunday, May 9, I will be replacing the old pages with new ones. The exception will be this forum page, which has to be done by Jim and/or Dave the Programmer.

During the update, you may get 'Page Not Found' errors; Don't worry!

Once the new pages are available, I will post back to this thread.

I hope all of you are having a great time in the field!

Many thanks for your patience, and for your participation!

5/09/2010 Update:

The new Home Page, Menbers Page, and Resources Page have been uploaded!

You can access the new home page by using this link: CANP New Home Page. (Or, you can click the "Home" button at the top of the page.)
Once you are on the new Home page, you can view the other new pages.

Note that the "Activities", "Members", and "Links" buttons at the top of our forum page will take you to the old pages.

More to come...

Thanks, Paul!

Update: Jim will likely update the forum page with our new header and footer next week.

Preston,

The new graphics and layout look great! Thanks for your work on this. Can't wait to see it throughout the rest of the pages here.

The only suggestion I have would be on the Resources page. Not a big deal, but you might consider a larger font and/or different color to designate the main topics. For example, the first heading "Nature Photography Tips, Tricks, and Related Information" is the same font/size as the next subheading "Using LAB Color.." It would also make it easier to distinguish one tip or resource from the next one. Just a thought.

Thanks again,

Lon

Thanks, Lon. I see what you mean. I'll fix that for the next update.

Hi All,

As you've no doubt noticed, the header is missing from our forum page. Jim and I are having some difficulty getting the new header and navigation bar to work with the forum software (it's a CSS issue).

In the meantime, you can access the CANP Home page from Here

Our apologies for the delay.
