The new Wargaming.info

15 December 2008 - Today is the big day as I load the redesigned site into the live environment. Regrettably it is not fully 100% complete as some sections do not have all their material yet - but websites are always evolving creatures so as time permits I'll get to those more obscure areas. If you are browsing the new site and find any odd links that don't work or areas that don't appear to display correctly, please let me know - the site has been designed with Opera and I have also tested it with Firefox & good ol' sluggish I.E. - so it should display consistently & correctly in those browsers and any other W3C compliant ones. As always I appreciate any feedback, good or bad... I hope people enjoy and find something of interest?

Eyes from Ethiopia

11 December 2008 - In November 2008, New Zealand Photographer Kate MacPherson introduced sixteen children from Mercy Home in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to digital cameras. All had come either directly from living on the streets or from extremely poor and underprivileged backgrounds and had never seen a camera before. Their enthusiasm and delight in photography have culminated in some incredibly unique and inspired imagery. You can view and buy their images (the funds from purchases going to support them).

Mosquito Fleets in WWI & WW2

November 2008 - Having been recently inspired by a David Manley article reprinted* in the latest SOTCW (Society of Twentieth Century Wargamers) Journal for fast play Motor Torpedo Boat rules for World War II, I am looking to dust off my reasonable fleet of 1/600th scale vessels that have been living in boxes for 15 years - since my days of playing "Fast Attack!" Looking forward to hauling these out soon so keep an eye out for some new material later in 2009 on this... I've been further inspired to do WWI as well by Dave G's models available at PT Dockyard.
(*David Manley's fast play MTB rules were first published in  "Wargames Journal" issue 9 at the start of 2008).

Site Rebuild

November 2008 - Way back in February 2008 I started on an ambitious plan to revamp the entire site expecting it to take just 2-3 months. Now, in December 2008, I have just finished spending many months doing the full rewrite of the site using CSS to make it fully W3C compliant, and also to generally improve the design somewhat while keeping the original feel. Although I have not completed all parts of it I felt a need to publish the site to get it live on the web, and to show people it had not just gone dead for 10 months!
