Hi Folks,
This blog is a little early but I want to give it a chance to be noticed by a few folks.
We've been working on a new website for several years. Company after company have volunteered to do it and then after a lot of wasted time on our end, they always fall through on their promises. Fortunately a member has stepped up to try and help out in his spare time and he's got a home page designed and they are working on the database and all the other internal pages. This isn't a final version and it's just a graphic of the page, not a working page.. but I thought I would share it with some of you who might peak in here and see what you think.

Thanks to Adrian James for working on this. I hope we can move forward and actually start using at least the home page portion of this ASAP.

Sure Kevin, it LOOKS great, but back in the old days of the '90's, you actually had to have talent and creativity. Now you just stick a pretty face up there and promote the heck outta it and anyone can be a success. But what do I know? I still miss "Pong"...:-) But seriously, Brian, I like it. I just hope that you don't go changing it around every six months or so like Yahoo does, so that just about the time I get used to navigating around, I have to start all over again. Midnite

Well, since we haven't changed it this entire CENTURY... I think we're due. = )

That guitar dude is just a place holder. There will be a real life JPF member there in the real version. I sent him a bunch of picks of people performing at our awards show to use.
He's already making some adjustments to it. I will post the next version as it become available.

Okay.. I have a newer version that I think is going to final (at least for now). Here it is:

We have to use our logo exactly as it was registered so he had to make the change.

Well, I'm glad to see a better pic of you, Brian. One of many made using your patented "point the camera at myself" technique. Someday though you should have some headshots made

Well.. I actually didn't take that one.. it's cropped from a photo of me and Derek Sivers taken at the awards show I think. When I take then I am facing the other direction like the one in my Avatar . If I am facing to the left, (as you see the pic) I likely took it. If I am facing to the right, I most likely didn't. Of course I COULD flip the pic and you'd never know. = )
And there's really only so much you can do with my head. Why pay someone to do the same thing?
