Our beloved Mods,

I have been reading the articles in the NICO website and realized that:a) the design on those pages is pretty crummyb) the articles aren't very user/reader friendlyc) they aren't very accessible

SO...

with your permission I would like to try to redo these articles and this entire section of the site. Afterward I think it'd be a good idea to put a button up top entitled 'articles' or something. anyway, let me know what you think. I'll get something together over the weekend to show you guys.

Nick :)

Nick - I have cc'ed Nancy (webmistress) re: this - I like the idea, perhaps you can collaborate - She could probably use the help, as busy as she is!

Sounds good. It's something I'd really like to do and can hopefully finish completely by July sometime. I'd also like a lot of moderator input too so feel free to give me any input, advice, etc etc.

Hitman (and other mods),

I already e-mailed Nancy. I also said that one thing I noticed as I downloaded every infiniti article is that we have a TON of repeats (e.g. chain guide articles, oil articles, transmission articles, etc.) I was thinking about doing a combining process and making 'everything you need to know about...' articles. What do you think?

Sounds good to me so far, but I also wanted to do something about Member's Rides, etc. Greg tells me you had some kick @$$ ideas for that part. My basic goal, if it turns out ok and is ok w/ the mods, etc. is to eliminate the idea of this other NICO section with the yellow and white that has FAQ's, articles, etc. I think it should all be one and be accessed from the NICO home site.

Nick :)

P.S. I'll start putting those articles together.

BTW....I noticed you're from Lawrence, KS. For the record, I hate that town, it's where a damn deer ran out and hit my car. URGH.

Ok, that was off topic, but anyway....

FTP works fine for me. Less hassle for you since you won't have to mail off CD.
