Site Changes

I've altered the way the pop up links work, and split off outlooks/discussions into another click. I'm trying to reduce clutter yet keep all the vitals up top and easy to get to on the main page.

The blogs now exist, and i'm still tweaking that. This is the place for comments, criticisms, and reporting anything you noticed not working properly. Or any suggestions for that matter.

Let me know what everyone likes and does not like, and wants as well!

Re: Site Changes

Probably won't be animated, due to bandwidth reasons. I'll experiment with that some more though. The main key is that everything on the site must be pulling from our own site. I don't like hotlinking to other pages. The NRL image up there is taken once an hour and resized to make the file size small enough to place on the header and cached well on our image servers.

Animated would be overkill there, but it doesnt' preculde more elsewhere!



Note: This is NOT an official page. It is run by weather hobbyists and should not be used as a replacement for official sources. 
CFHC's main servers are currently located at Hostdime.com in Orlando, FL.
