Jeff, I took a quick peek, looks real good to me.   Will explore more in a couple of days.   What an undertaking!   Thanks for all your time and work.

> Feel free to log into the new website (if you have an account already) 
> and browse around. Let me know what you like and don't like. Don't hold

> It's a lot easier to change things now than to reorganize later, so give me 
> both barrels! There are still a bunch of things to be fixed, so as you 
> find bugs, let me know about them also and I'll pick them off as we go. 
> Especially, let me know if your web browser causes the site not to display 
> properly. I've only tested under Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer 
> (versions 6 and 7). I don't have access to Safari or some of the other 
> Apple Mac browsers.

> The new Reference Library section is built on a popular Wiki system for 
> those who know what that is. For those who don't, it's a much simpler way 
> to create, organize and cross reference any kind of informational content. 
> We'll be using it for all the technical information, tips/tricks, 
> procedures, etc. that we've amassed over the years. For an example, I put 
> in a short bit of demo content under the Engines section.

> 
> Two other major new features I've added are the RESOURCES - -> DOCUMENTS 
> which is a brand new library system for storing documents for download 
> (which I'll open up shortly), and the online Forms processor which can be 
> seen for demonstration under the RESOURCES - -> LOANER TOOLBOX menu 
> (although I have a couple things to fix there before it's ready also).

> There are a few recent additions that have been made to the old site 
> since I took a database snapshot and translated it to the new website, so 
> those items are not on the new site. Let me know if something is missing 
> and I'll get those things migrated over as we go.

> I expect the new site to become permanent sometime in January with the old 
> website going away.
