As you can see, if you've been here before (you'll just have to trust us if you have not), we've made some major changes to WWEnd. The biggest change is the over all site design with new full screen background fractals instead of the header strip and a snazzy new logo. You'll also notice some new tabs at the top of the page for the log in and the search as well as a fun little bit in the center.

With the design upgrade comes some fixes to existing features like the BookTrackr and the My World page. We've made the move to JQuery for all our js scripts to simplify and speed things up. The most evident bit is the shadowbox script for the video galleries. Speaking of videos, we've moved the author vids out of the resources section and into the authors section and changed the layout so you can see all the author vids on the same page now. There are a bunch more vids in there now too so check it out.

Still more to come. If you have any questions or comments we'd love to hear what you think.

We've just made some more upgrades for you to check out:

- In My World we've finally gotten around to adding a "Books I've Read" list. Any book you tag as read will appear on this list so get to tracking. A huge oversight corrected.

- In Authors we've added sorting headers to the authors lists. The default sort is total nominations but you can now sort by wins, total novels, author last name etc.

- In Books by Award we've changed the sub menu to take you directly to the award listings instead of the info page for each award. This should save some extra clicks.

More to come.
