Steve
Lucas, of Canada, asked me about the search engine that was on the previous
Site. I simply forgot to put it back. It's on the opening page
now. Thanks for the reminder Steve. |
 |
I
am still adjusting the animated Suzuki Cavalcade.com banner on the opening
page. It appears to be working on my computer, but when I upload my
changes, the internet does something else to it. Hopefully this time
it will look like it's supposed to, or at least be closer. |
 |

Industries, who has trailer
hitches for the Cavalcade and other bikes. |

Hitch. Walter submitted this change
when he discovered there was an error. The changed part is Page 3. |
 | Put
Rick Geversi's
page back up. It was temporarily off the Site, along with everything
else, during the Site restoration. There is one difference ... the
navigation button is now at the top of each page, above the banner. |
 | I
think the Site is now back together. If you find something missing, or
not working properly, please let me know. ~Bob
Ramsey |
February

 |
Removed
the (non-working) search engine from this Site. |
 |
Repaired
more bad links. Most of the links that are bad, are still pointing
toward the old Site paths. If you have trouble with a link, you will
probably see the words "SuzCavSite" as part of the address.
This address is not good anywhere, except on my computer. ~Bob
Ramsey |
February

 |
Repaired
the picture links, between the thumbnail picture and the larger
version. Bad links were on the Specifications Page, in the section,

and you can see the larger version of each picture. |
 |
The
January '02 Newsletter is now available on the Newsletter Page. |
 |

the Parts / Vendors Page back in place. Note that the name has been
changed from Parts / Accessories Page, to what it is now. |
February

 | The
Site renovation is underway. |
 | Added
a Pictures Page 9 |
 | Added
a "Make It Yourself" page, to help relieve some of the clutter on
the previous Maintenance & Parts Pages. |
 | Rebuilt
all pages. Even though they may still look the same, they are
new. |
 | You
will probably find some errors in links, etc, along the way. If you
do, please look for a link to contact the Webmaster (Bob
Ramsey). Please tell me which page
and the problem you are having. |

the size of the Search Engine, at the bottom of the opening page, to allow
more room to see what you've typed. |
 | Changed
the wording on the Search Engine in the choice box, from search "this
Site" to search "SuzukiCavalcade.com." |
 | Played
with the Suzuki Cavalcade.com animation, on the opening page. This
will be an ongoing thing, until we think we have it perfect, then we will
change it again. :-) |
 | Changed
the message on the opening page, to reflect a better description of what
this Site is about. (We know more about it now, than we did when it
was only 5 pages) :-) |
 | Changed
the title in the blue bar at the top of several windows, to reflect the
subject matter of the page you are viewing. I'm still working on this,
so there will be more changes later. If you're not sure what I'm
talking about, look at the blue bar at the very top of your browser.
Right now, it should say, "What's New On SuzukiCavalcade.com?" |
