Re-vamped Website is live!! - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

Click on "home" at the top right of the screen and it takes you to the new home page.... They're calling this a "soft launch" and we know there are tweaks to come - but check it out and let us know what you think!

If you go to "popular tags" on the right hand side - scroll down - and click on SSW37 - you'll get all the articles associated with that issue - you know those new articles you guys have been waiting for!

Hey, I'm the first to congratulate you all on a job well done. Haven't found any bugs yet, and it's great to have so much information so readily available. Not that I'm biased, of course.

Carole beat me to it, but I like the look and "feel" of the new site.

Scrolling Days · 10-28-2009, 11:52 PM

Looks really great! You've really outdone yourselves!

If I was going to add one suggestion, it might be that the font on the left hand margin topics be just a tad darker, but my monitor tends to whitewash things a bit, so it might just be me.

I love it! Your magazine, books, website and Forum are truly invaluable resources to any serious scroller. Thanks for that!

Oops! did find a dead link: Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts - Free-standing Fretwork Photo Frame

Supposed to take you to a pattern for a fretwork frame and it dead ends.

Took a look . Not sure if I like it .

Too busy or perhaps the white back ground ??

Very nice. You have some real good stuff there. I like the Featured Author and...Oh go on, I like it all. What I didn't see is "In this Issue" will that be Incorporated?

Good job!
