Status of Website's New Format

A major landmark early today, September 10, 2011: Every page available from the menus here on the Update Blog, the Travel Blog and the pull-down menus at ASDHollywood.com and DALINKA.com now is available in the new format (with a link to its prior version in case something is not working).

The "50 Random" photos feature on the first page of DALINKA.com now selects from more than 1200 of the photos posted to the site! Nearly every photo in the slideshow now has a fairly descriptive title and the exact date it was taken.

The Hometown Chicago page now randomizes the order of the slideshow and provides five immediate jump points by description of photo and its date.

More to come...

Now See More than 500 Chicago Photos

As the site redesign progresses along, I've added hundreds of Chicago photos to the newly re-designed Home Town Chicago page. One of the features of the new design is that the slide show now displays the photos in a random order and that five random photos have direct links with descriptions to the left of the slide show. Enjoy.

Welcome Page for Dalinka.com Has a New Transitional Format

As the site upgrades continue, I've given the Welcome Page for Dalinka.com a new Transitional Format that borrows elements from the new style via iWeb but, for the moment, continues most of the layout of the prior page. Let me know what you think about how I should continue the redesign in the comments.

The Update Blog Now Matches ASD's Travel PhotoBlog's Format

The Site Updates Blog now has the same format as ASD's Travel PhotoBlog. Both blogs now welcome comments and feedback (though you may still find some posts that have not yet been updated to permit commenting.)

ASD's Travel PhotoBlog Has A New Format Too!

ASD's Travel PhotoBlog has a new format and allows commenting and sharing. Give it a try.

Articles by ASD about Disney Parks and Other Stuff now part of ASDHollywood.com

With today's launch of the new page format for ASDHollywood.com, I've also started publishing Articles & Essays about Disney Parks, Other Places Around The World, and Anything Else That Comes To Mind. I haven't decided on a publishing schedule yet, but the more demand I see either through emails and increased traffic, the more often I will publish.

There are already two original Articles posted: the first, A Brief History of Epcot, has been on the site since 2002 but it was pretty-well buried; the second, What Are You Doing at Walt Disney World on New Year's Eve? is newly published but was written back in January. A third Article, What Are You Doing New Year's Eve?, was also written back in January and it will be added soon. Probably by the time you've read this!

Enjoy and I look forward to hearing from you.

Now the New Page Layout for asdhollywood.com is the Welcome Page

While it's still a work in progress, when you visit ASDHollywood.com, the first page of the website now uses the new format. The new format is also used for the About Page and the Collected Links Page.

Preview the new page layout for asdhollywood.com!

Working in iWeb 3.0.3, I've designed a new page layout for asdhollywood.com.  Check out a preview.

New York Pages - now with Late Show with David Letterman Souvenirs

While the site has had a Disney in NYC page since 2005, I've added a page of Souvenirs & Photos (built in iWeb) from visits to Late Show with David Letterman (of course, not including the show or the inside of the Ed Sullivan Theater).  A new link on the menu bar for New York, NY allows access to each of these pages and additional pages which will be added soon.

Disneyland Paris & DisneyQuest Tickets Scanned

On my Travel PhotoBlog and on my individual pages for Disneyland Paris and DisneyQuest, I've added scans of the tickets for the parks.
