| August 6, 1998 | Our Web Site Undergoes a Facelift As you can tell, we've given our site a new look. Most of the changes are cosmetic (making the site look a whole lot better), but a few small changes have occurred in its structure. Some of the changes were also made for compatability with browsers which had problems with the old site. For Example, this News page is new, and the information from the old Member Info page has been moved both to here and into the About Us area. We hope that you like what we have done. |
