Step two in migrating to the new BBF home page!
THIS DOES NOT EFFECT THE FORUM! Not making the mistake the "other forum" did :jester_1

This is an update of the home page and how we change out the photo of the week, post how to articles etc.

The new site has been uploaded to the server and you can access it here:
http://www.bigbendfishing.net/newsite/

For the time being....If your looking for something we moved or left off here is a link to the old site
http://oldsite.bigbendfishing.net/


If you see errors or have suggestions to improve it let me know.

I like the layout.

I would slow down the billboard(or whatever the main box that changes is called) to maybe 1.5-2x longer between changes.

Remove the duplicate menu bar from the top and create a Gold Star icon for sight sponsorship instead of a menu bar option.

Remove the donate info from the bottom right and add it to the site sponsorship page.
