I don't care.  I never paid attention to the colors anyway.  I am, on the other hand, addicted to the smilies and just wanted to reply to use some. [smiley=hooters.gif]

Guys,

In the ongoing effort to make FantasyFootballer.com into a full-blown FF-information portal, the GBRFL home page has been moved to:

http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/gbrfl/.

Easy enough, right?

I hope you all are enjoying everything that is going on here and I truly do appreciate all of your understanding of what I am doing here as some of it may be somewhat infringing on the GBRFL.  Thank you! [smiley=bow.gif]

Your Friend,
Steve

Guys,

One more quick hit regarding the move of our home page... PLEASE take note and inform me of any links that you find incorrect at the GBRFL site!  I think everything is copasetic, but you never know... [smiley=shrug.gif] I might have missed something.  I can tell you this much, I am not bothering with changing the link to the GBRFL home page on last season's spreadsheets.  They are probably not even being accessed at all these days and, anyway, they will be completely removed when I go about the big move next month, when all of FantasyFootballer.com will move to a new server.  The '03 spreadsheets, of course, will correctly link to the home page.  Anyway, keep an eye out for anything I might have missed, guys!  Thanks!  I am...

...Your Commish,
Steg [smiley=zenmaster.gif]

As I mentioned in a thread up on "the Sidelines", the "Great Eight FF Information Sites" list on our GBRFL home page has been updated!  Just thought I should give my GBRFLers a special heads-up! [smiley=awwgee.gif]

Fellaz,

If you haven't noticed already, as I announced at the Summer Meeting, the GBRFL home page is being reworked based on changes over the last year AND of late...

1)  R.I.P. to the old "News & Notes" page... :'( The link to the now obsolete "News & Notes" page has been removed and the page will no longer be maintained.  The page will remain frozen in time (though I will clean off the 2002 Award Winners [smiley=whistle.gif] at the end of this season) and accessible via:
http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/gbrfl/newsnotes.htm.

2) Our "Owner Information" page is now directly accessible via the GBRFL home page.  There is a button on the right side of the upper section of buttons that says "Owner Info" and will take you directly to the password page.

3) In that top group of buttons on the right side, there is now a link to our "Message Board" here on "the Gridiron".  It does not take you to the general index page of the forum like the other links on our home page; it takes you directly here to our GBRFL board.

4) The "Lineups" button was moved to the left column of buttons and the "Champions" button was moved from the bottom group of buttons to the top group on the right side.

5) A link to the "GBRFL2", or as Frank put it the "Your a Peon League", has been added to the bottom section of buttons on the right side and the FF "Information Sites" button was shifted over to the left.

6) The "GBRFL2" logo and link has been added to the FFLA section at the very bottom of the page.

7) LAST, BUT DEFINITELY NOT LEAST, this whole realignment of the buttons got me to thinking about the color rotation I have used to indicate that pages have been updated.  After thinking it through, I came to the conclusion that the ONLY pages that "rotate" on a regular basis/schedule and are well-served by the changing (glowing) colors indicating that the page has been updated are the "Rosters", "Transactions", "Standings", "Game Results" and "Lineups" pages.  The rest are not updated regularly and, as such, who would ever even remember, no less use, the changing colors to check on updates for those pages?  NO ONE, including myself!  Did anyone ever even notice my changing the glowing colors on an annual basis ::) for the "Champions" button? [smiley=pullleeeeeeeze.gif] [smiley=no.gif] That was foolish! [smiley=dunce.gif] So, what I did was put all the ones for which the color change was a useful feature in the top left button section.  The two colors that their glow will fluctuate between are ORANGE and BLUE.  Right now, all of them are orange except the "Lineups" button.  The glow of all the rest will always remain green.  Actually, having it set up this way should make it MUCH MORE user-friendly:  your mind only has to go about memorizing one smaller section of buttons that are all together and of two different colors than all the rest, and the general color scheme of the page for that matter, and very different from each other.  You should all be able to naturally memorize the changes much more effectively.

I will work on updating the rest of the pages of the site accordingly, e.g. like removing the "News & Notes" links, throughout the rest of the week.

Well, that about does it for the night! [smiley=tired.gif] Time for Steggie to hit the hay! [smiley=sleepers.gif]

Over and out... and at you all's service, [smiley=bow.gif]
Steg

Well, this is all done.  All the "current" pages in use have been made to fit the new set-up (explained thoroughly above).  I have decided to leave old (archived) versions of the pages alone.  It saves me A LOT of work and it is kind of neat to do from a historical perspective as well.  I hope you all like it!

Looks great Mr. Champion. It is much easier now to get around without some many pages to go through.
Keep that mind working and making the site more efficient.  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Site looks good.  It truly is much easier to navigate!!  Thanks!!

 And I like the blue and orange color coding.  Nice touch!!  I wonder where that comes from, Mr I got a boner for Jake the Fake Plummer.  (who got booed in his first home game!!)
