ATTENTION: MRH website maintenance is complete!
What changed?
1. Site look-and-feel has been changed.
The look of the site is now different - one more significant difference is the page width has been increased so 800-pixel wide images fit within the page. Also, when images exceed the 800 pixels, they are cropped, they no longer overlap the side menus and "break" the look of the site.
2. Random header replaced with every 7-second slide show.
Our old random page header has been replaced with a top-of-page slide show that displays a new image every 7 seconds. Not only do we show our "Yes, it's a model" images, but we can also now show ads in this space. Everything's clickable now, so if you'd like to know more about one of the "Yes, it's a model" images, just click the image.
3. No other new functionality yet.
This is phase one of our site enhancements. Phase 2, which is coming in a few weeks, will add new capabilities to the site. This first phase establishes the new look, the next phase will have many new features. We'll be telling you more about those new features in the weeks ahead.

SITE IS BACK!
Site is back and all planned maintenance is complete except the upgrade of the WYSIWYG editor. More testing is needed on the editor before we can move to it.

Jeff ... sticky only works on the home page
Unfortunately, sticky only works on the home page posts - it doesn't do squat in views listings like the tracker/recent posts.
It's a Drupal "feature" ...

Slideshow Left- Right- Buttons much better now!
Glad you were able to fix those! Now they're fun to click!
One other question: When you reach the end of the "slides", rather than clicking on a dead button, is there a way to just have the button cycle back to the beginnnig (or end, as the case may be)?
Thanks,
Al

Didn't put the new editor in yet
Didn't put the new editor in yet. Decided it needs some more testing first.
Everything else is in, however.
