    All,

    Couple items:

    - Site has been updated to the latest software (no real impact to end user)
    - Reinstalled the front page (should make A4s happy)

    So, to get to the front page, you can just type in www.airwarriors.com, and that will take you there, or select HOME from the navigation bar. The AW's logo at the top of the page will take you to the main forum overview page. Or you can select FORUM from the left navigation bar on the HOME page. Clear as mud, eh?

    - Added Google Search of Airwarriors to the front page for those wanting to search the site more in depth
    - Turned ads back on for front page, playing with it a bit, haven't decided what I am going to go with
    - Some members were asking about the old donation link, added it to the front page

    Going to try and get the chat showing who is online later. We shall see.

    John

    Now I miss the New Threads link under the Welcome, Kickflip89 thing.

    Ah well, I vaguely remember the front page from when I first started lurking here :D. I will adapt and overcome!

    The return of the front page is a popular move indeed.

    You should stop seeing the ads tomorrow (contributors), once I finally settle on where the ads are going to be displayed, right now everyone sees them.

    How 'bout diagonally across the center of the screen? Kind of a nudge, nudge to contribute... ;)

    Thanks for giving more options other than paypal to donate, I might just do that soon once I get some in my account.

    I saw that Brett is now the highest poster, what happened to FlyNavy? I've been out for a while and remember him all the time before.

    Don't make me change your avatar back to the old sea dog again...

    Sigh... my work is never done... all ads should be gone for contributors.
