I like the current site here better then BTFH. I do miss the news box and always start from the main page so that is the method I'd recommend.

The newsbox is back up -- but in spite of popular opinion here I put it on the current story page. That means one less page I have to update with each upload, something I didn't think about when I made the original post. We'll see how it goes.

Thanks for reinstating the news box, and to be honest I like it right where you placed it.

Nice to see the news back, but I had to go looking for it. I, among others, purchased the D/L of the story, so I don't naturally go to the latest update of the story, as I have the whole thing already. I usually check the main page, then the forums, so I may miss postings of news. That is why I voted for placeing the news on the main page.
