Kris and I have just finished overhauling the index page and all associated "info" pages for the site. It doesn't look radically different, but it's now all CSS layout (my first ALL CSS layout, I might add) and the navigation should be easier. Please note: due to a HUGE amount of spam, we have changed the administration address. So, if any of you want to reach either Kris or I through the site, please make sure that you click on the "Contact Us" link on the home page, or anywhere else it appears. Instead of just "administration at ...." it is now "tsadministration at...". The old email address has been heaved into the trash bin in cyberspace, along with all all the offers for potions to enlarge body parts neither of us possess and Adobe software for $5. wink.gif So, anything you send to us at the OLD address will just bounce.

So - go have a look - http://www.techsurvivors.net and let us know if there are any broken links or errors of any sort.  smile.gif

PS - for those sticklers out there...yes, I know the pages fall apart in IE 5 for Mac. But since the number of people using that browser probably fit on the head of a pin these days, I decided to ignore this issue. If anyone knows the code tweak to make it work, I'm all ears (eyes?). The pages have been tested in Safari, Firefox, Camino, Opera, and various other flavors of Mozilla, and of course, in IE 6 for Windows and FF for Windows; no issues were apparent.

Paddy is too kind by including me in the revamp of the pages. She did all the work and deserves all the credit.

Looks great! But is that page may with paper with a couple of ragged tears in it?! Surely, we can afford new paper... tease.gif

Hi Dolphin and all you great coding people,
I am about to take some classes in CSS, as its so new to me!  I am in an HTML class right now and learning a lot.
This stuff is so much fun!
Would be great if some of you here would set up a class on-line for this, hint hint hint!!!  

I would also love to learn about more on-line classes too, as when you Google them, you get all sorts of really expensive and irrelevant stuff.
Ive got so many questions that they would just be too much for one page alone!  The more you learn about this stuff, the more you WANT to learn.

Hi, I've been so busy, too, but just ducking in to say hello to all my old (and young) TS family! The website looks great!

Parker, good for you, good luck in your paramedic training! You are the most important providers of good medical care!
