    The site upgrade seems to have gone off without a hitch and we’re excited to give everyone their first look at our new lay-out here on the website. One of the first things people will likely notice is all the additional info being presented on the home page. In the past we limited ourselves to displaying the most recent fishing reports. As you can now see there’s a much more diverse collection of information at your fingertips.

    We’ve added; a news item, more fishing reports, the latest tournament results from bass and walleye tournaments as well as announcements from our site sponsors about promotions offered to IDA’s members.

    This is just a start. Over the next week – 10 days we’re also going to add a re-vamped and feature rich classified ad section to the home page that will make finding the newest classifieds a snap. We’ll also be adding a product review section, a video vault and a member’s photo album.

    We hope everyone likes the new look and lay-out of the website and we’re excited to be introducing these other new features soon.

    Is there a way I can make the display fill my whole screen? I’m only seeing about 60%.

    Looks Great! Not always easy to improve something that is already good, but you’ve done it.

    Mike, I just shrunk my IDA window. Now I can see those emails that pop in….that I don’t see until the afternoon.

    Just a suggestion.

    I like the new look a lot. It might be like when you get an oil change, but it also seems to be loading faster than before. Well done.

    To make the new IDA website fill your entire screen on larger displays:

    – Go to “My Home” (Top of this screen)
    – In the “Display Preference” section, click on “Edit”.
    – In the “Which Style Sheet” select “IDA Wide View” click “Submit”.

    Like the new look , one thing I noticed missing was the number of views a particular thread was getting in the forums. Not essential info, but I ocassionally found it interesting.
