We are making configuration changes to the website over the next couple of weeks.  If something doesn't work, or images don't appear, we are working on it.  Thanks for being patient!

Greetings from the guy writing code... and sadly, it's not being written in an office shed yet.

I hope you like the direction we're going with the site layout.  To be more exact, the direction I'm going.  Jess will have to comment on her thought (and she will) later.

There are some upgrades in the works.  Joomla has release a couple of patches that I will apply this week.  All in preparation for the upgrade to 1.5, the latest and greatest version of Joomla (actually 1.5.1 is the newest, but who's counting)! That probably won't happen this month.  I've got to get the test site setup, do the upgrade, and then test everything.  Only when that succeds will I upgrade the site that you see.  Remember, safety second...

The idea behind the layout change is that we were a little dated with our "fixed width" that was setup for the old 800x600 monitors of yester-year (2000)? So, I've changed that to a variable width that will flex with the 800x600 and the 1920x1600 that "some people" have.  Additionally, the template used with Joomla is now all CSS (no tables).  The code generated by Joomla probably isn't though.  So, you'll still see some tables out there.  The last thing is that I just want us to have a new look and feel.  Keep people on there toes, huh?

I've put up a poll to see if we get any responses for the new layout, but please keep in mind that it is not finished.  Only the structure is here.  The icing and sprinkles will show up later... 

Really, where am I going with this?  I don't know... it doesn't help Jess have time to get pictures of the kids up, does it?

As Damion said, please be patient with him while he finishes the "structure" and then adds the "icing and sprinkles"....me personally, I would have added the icing and sprinkles first because they are shiney and yummmmy :) 
 
For those wondering about pictures, yes we have them. What we lack is the time to post them for your enjoyment. When Anna stops pulling stuff off Damion's desk while I'm at mine and Jack stops wanting to be held and love, maybe, just maybe then I'll post pics :grin
