Here's a list of all the changes that I made to the site for its Christmas 08 update:

• Completely 'ported' all the site content onto new pages which use an integrated template system (when I make a change to the template I will not need to change all the other pages.) This also means there is a little more consistency in font styles and layouts. Can you believe I was stupid enough not to think of this before.
• Redesigned home page (new introduction text, new welcome image, replaced 'spotlighted' content with 'points of interest,' added a more professional disclaimer.)
• Introduced points of interest- a briefer form of the standard news posts.
• Moved search bar from bottom-left to top-right (as a Mac fan I didn't want my site to have it in the same place as Vista.)
• Improved Google searching- results now appear on a customised search page in my website.
• Moved text links from home page to bottom-left spot (where search bar used to be) so they now appear on all pages.
• Nicer page title images (removed the lightning graphics because I didn't like them, added a couple of extra effects, reduced file size.)
• New texture for side columns (similar to original but much smaller file size.)
• Improved flash menu bar (slightly different buttons, better roll over effect, smaller file size, removed 'popular' links and changed each external link to show the respective website logos.)
• Added 'Associates' panel to left column (removed Associates extra page.)
• Removed tank2tank's fan listing (e-mail me if you want me to bring it back.)
• Added credits section to each main flash page.
  
• Generally tidied up flash, video and extra pages.
• Slightly more ads added (the more, the better.)
